What do YOU do during Conference?

We like to pull out the legos and make trucks!! Well, at least Scott and Canon do. :) Scott took a trip to the lego store for his birthday last month, and showed amazing restraint as he waited to play with his new toys until it was time for General Conference. This has become a tradition for our family to play with legos while we listen to the words of the prophet. I think it started when we were trying to figure out a way to keep Scott awake. :)
C'mon Dad! I want to play too!!
We enjoyed listening to General Conference on the internet, as the cable station that used to carry Conference wanted too much money to broadcast it this year, and the Church said no. I'm so grateful for modern technology that allows us to listen to the prophet in the comfort of our own home. The internet CAN be used for positive things.
When they were younger, Scott used to make little trucks for all the girls to play with. Now they are old enough to copy his design and make their own. Canon likes to take the trucks Dad makes and crash them. I don't think Scott likes that game very much. :P See how he protects his semi so Canon can touch but not destroy?

  1. oh heavens! You should see Brandon's lego collection! (no not dash and Max's) I said Brandons! I am thinking of taking out insurance on them because they are a billion dollars and he has so many. Many of time grown men drool over them. HUGE star wars sets! It's what he wants for every holiday and birthday. They are true friends....blood brothers/lego brothers! I love that tradition! We may adopt it.
