We watched the Saturday > Morning session Live, sat. evening, and we watched a recording of both > the Priesthood session and Sat. Afternoon sessions sunday morning. > Then we watched the Sunday Morning session live Sunday evening. > Then they showed the Sunday afternoon session live at 9 and we > couldn't watch it. We'll just have to read it in the ensign. The > weather here has been all right, not as good as last week but still > all right. Good news is we can proselyte without suit jackets now! I > saw that it snowed because of General Conference. That was fun to see, > I Hope next year it snows a lot this late in the year so i can go > snowboarding as soon as I come home! For allergies Sister bullock told > me to take a hayfever medicine like Zirtec but the store brand and it > has seemed to help my running nose quite a bit. I forgot to take it > today. :~/ For easter are you planning on doing the shooting thing? If > not why not? Eh no reason is good enough to not do it. No not even > snow or rain. > I love top raman mac and cheese and they don't have it > here so i would greatly appreciate those at anytime.
