Conference!

Jon and I were the proud recipients of tickets to the Saturday Afternoon session of General Conference.  We were super excited to go see conference in person.  Neither of us had been before, so it was new for us both.

I think we were both kind of expecting it to be really different from watching at home...maybe more real?  Or that we'd feel the spirit more strongly?  Well, while it was a great experience, and I'm glad we went, I actually like watching it at home more!  You certainly can't tell from watching on the TV or listening to the audio, it is LOUD.  There are all these people around you, and so there's coughing, and sneezing, and rustling, and people moving around.  It's really distracting, and you don't feel like you can just relax.

It was a very valuable experience, but I'll stick to watching at home!

Afterwards we met my parents out in Herriman and showed them the parcel we are looking at, and took them to the model home to see the floor plan we've got our eye on.  While we were in Herriman, we noticed the spectacular color in the canyons nearby and went for a bit of a drive.  This fall is shaping up to be absolutely breathtaking.
