Our weekend

We had a wonderful weekend... full of:

General Conference,

(I wish I had managed to get a picture of the boys using their "I-spy-the-prophet" spyglasses.  Priceless.  But wasn't Conference so great?  Loved it all.)

Games

(A church here in town was having a "Free Sale."  What's a free sale?  It's like a garage sale--only everything is free.  It was great!  One of my favorite finds was this practically new Twister.  Hours of enjoyment just waiting to happen.)

Playing Outside,

Alex and William poking at a few grasshoppers.

(In between sessions of Conference I tried to get the boys outside and move around so they'd be quite during the session.  Didn't work out quite like I'd hoped... but we had fun outdoors--in the perfect weather--anyway.)

And to make the weekend even more special we had a visitor to our house.  Meet Wags.

Wags is the "class pet" from William's Kindergarten class.  Every night he goes home with someone and they get to write what they did with Wags in his journal.  William was extra lucky that he got to have Wags for the entire weekend.  James really loved to hug Wags... it was really sweet.  While Rich went to Priesthood Session of Conference we had a little movie party.  We watched "All Dogs Go To Heaven" (another free sale find) in honor of our special guest.

We didn't go anywhere out of the ordinary or do anything spectacular but I love when I get the chance to do little fun things like this with my boys.   It makes the frustrating moments worth it.

What did you do this weekend?
