General Conference, Etc.

Let's get started catching up on April.
 
General Conference of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was the beginning of April. We had our traditional nachos, took notes, had bonding time while watching the sessions together. 
The Saturday evening session was a combined general session. We made brownies for everyone to share and as is the tradition for General Conference, we started eating them from the middle first. As it was also April Fool's Day, we made two batches of brownies. One was normal and one used lemon extract and olive oil instead of the usual vanilla extract and canola/vegetable oil. Then I put them in the oven and couldn't remember which pan was which so we had to eat them to find out.

Some other things that happened during General Conference. Jr. put a water bottle on my head while I was watching and texted a picture to Jeremy. Jeremy's response? "Working on your poise?" That is in reference to one of the talks from the Saturday evening session, "Christlike Poise," by Elder Mark A. Bragg.

President Nelson gave a talk during the Sunday morning session called, "Peacemakers Needed."
Jr. Jr. had this to say: Jet is the biggest peacemaker of all of us because when he's all cute and stuff, he helps us to calm down and when he's mad, he makes things into pieces.
 
Jeremy was a peacemaker and shared his drink with Jet. 
He also read to him because the second day of General Conference was April 2, International Children's Book Day.
