Conference Weekend April '25 Day 1

It's here!  One of the best weekends of the year!

 The boys got up and worked on one of Gigs' motorcycles this morning.  

(He has like 3 of them).
Nate is a whiz with engines and mechanical stuff, 

so, having him here for the weekend is a dream come true for Gigs.
They did something elaborate, which involved using the lawn mower battery 

and attempting to get the motorcycle battery working.

And it worked.

For like 3 minutes.

All this happened while Claire slept in.  

Claire loves her sleep. Nate, on the other hand, 

was up at the crack of dawn, even though they got in at 3:00 am 

and are on Arizona time, which is 3 hours behind us.  

I'm sure he was dead.  

Nate's first experience meeting Oliver, and vice versa, was while 

early this morning while Ollie was still in bed near their shared bathroom.

It went something like this:

"Hey, I'm Nate..."

"...Hey, man, I'm Oliver."

After the second session of conference, we took Claire and Nate to see the studio

then grabbed dinner and teased Ollie about asking out our cute waitress

and he got really mad at us.

Lesson learned.

We got home in time for the third 

and final session of the day.

AMAZING.  As usual.

This is one of my favorite weekends of the year is in April and October; 

conference weekend!

I love that we're all together for basically the whole weekend.

We made an impressive charcuterie board (one of many this weekend).
I am beyond grateful for a living prophet and Apostles.  

For wise and wonderful Church leaders who counsel, 

guide, and share inspired messages.
