general conference weekend

I love that Sunshine makes countdowns for just about everything.  We were fortunate enough to watch General Conference this weekend and listen to a prophet speak to us.  There were some amazing talks.  If you haven't heard them yet, take time and watch or read here.  Turtle cracked me up as we were singing one of the hymns.  He stood on a chair and tried to lead the music along with the conductor.  Adorable!  We also had our traditional cinnamon rolls, for which 7 missionaries showed up to help eat them.  And we had lunch for them as well.  They were happy.  And so were we.

 

 

in which we finish day 2 of siding

In order to buy our house, a few things needed to be done.  Siding was a HUGE issue that needed to be fixed.  So this is what it looks like after day two.  We have a friend, who is a licensed contractor working with us.  The house already looks so much better in this little section that has been done.  And it will be a much different color than the material being installed.  This one, to be specific.
