every six months when conference rolls around our family always gets excited. conference is a favorite of ours. we love hearing all of the talks and being able to spend two whole days together just being together and being uplifted. a few years back we started a family tradition. since we don't ever watch the super bowl and are not really into football ( i know, we are like the only people on earth that are not that into football. we like soccer!!) anyways we decided to do something fun for conference instead. so we do a conference super bowl. i usually try to get food together the night before. since we watch it at home on tv, i put stuff out after the first session and then people can just kind of munch. this gets me out of cooking for the rest of the day, which is also a plus! this is our spread from this year. it is missing one dish. i know some of the stuff is not that healthy, but it is only once every six months. we usually try to invite some people over, but this year just had the missionaries. i try to do a new dish each time, just to mix it up.this was what i tried this year. these are cheesy bacon wraps! they turned out pretty well. i need to figure out how to get them to stay circular, instead of kind of flattening out.
i am so glad that we get to spend this time together and to listen to the different messages. this conference was great. there were so many talks that i really enjoyed. if you are interested in listening you can click on the link below.

what a fun idea MEghan!! I think I might have to copy you!!
That sounds like a lot of fun. Some day when I learn how to cook and stuff I hope I do fun things like that. lol
We have this same tradition! Years ago one of our gents said that General Conference was like the Mormon Superbowl and then the tradition began in our home.
What a great tradition!!! I really enjoyed Conference too. I feel so uplifted and inspired to do better.
