Fortuosity: Conference Weekend Edition

General Conference weekend is one of my favorite things. We get together with family and spend the whole weekend enjoying each other, eating great food, and listening to modern day Prophets and Apostles. I really do love it more than I can say.

In honor of Conference this weekend I decided to make a quick list of some of the reasons I love this weekend.

  1. Hearing from a modern day Prophet, Apostles, and other Leaders in the church (I know I kinda already mentioned that but it is so great).
  2. Having another excuse to get together with family
  3. Oatmeal Brulee (we have traditional food that we eat every conference weekend)
  4. Being cozy with blankets and socks. I really love to be cozy
  5. It is a completely relaxing and rejuvenating weekend (unless you are the one hosting and then it can be a touch stressful at points, not that I would never I never host because I don't have a house yet. There are some perks to being a bit behind everyone else). 
  6. Getting to wear sweats or jeans or whatever you fancy. 
  7. Discussing the things we learn and sharing our favorite parts of different talks
  8. Warm drinks or fancy cold drinks and endless treats and pastries
  9. Staying up late giggling and talking about things with my sisters and mom
  10. Getting answers to prayers and other questions and receiving another confirmation of truth about principles that I hold very dear

Happy General Conference Weekend!
