While my 6, 4, and almost 1 year-old had fun picking out different colors for me to use (and coloring on the bottom :), it was my 13-year-old who I think was most influenced by the process and end result. Watching me recognize and highlight important doctrine in such a way that she was privy to (as opposed to writing in a notebook) was an amazing part of our Conference weekend, and displaying it will help us to be mindful of that each day!Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12655151594800997679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047346872529008758.post-4922281439677411732013-10-08T08:29:09.302-04:002013-10-08T08:29:09.302-04:00I enjoyed watching priesthood session for the firs...I enjoyed watching priesthood session for the first time ever-what an historic moment.

The best of all is always President Monson's talks. How does one choose from all of these stirring messages???

And anytime I introduce candy as an element of GC, it's a major distraction. Oh well!<br /><br />This is the drawing of President Monson that I used: http://ayearoffhe.blogspot.com/2011/09/2011-wk-39-pres-thomas-s-monson.html<br /><br />I want to do more like this. It's so fun! (Although I used red and blue for his tie and he now looks like President Nixon!! I'm going to rip it out and try green and blue instead!)

If so, that is a great idea I'll have to try. :) Not very quiet this time around at my house either....my 5 kids range from 1-9 and it seems the older they get the harder it is. Maybe that's because when they were younger they would nap through lots of conference. ;) Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07218689371933453392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047346872529008758.post-90219888251135398532013-10-07T10:14:16.938-04:002013-10-07T10:14:16.938-04:00Oh and Guy also like to stitch as much as the girl...Oh and Guy also like to stitch as much as the girls!Jocelyn Christensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10342635172904848811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047346872529008758.post-82218386504114690692013-10-07T10:13:35.765-04:002013-10-07T10:13:35.765-04:00That is awesome!
