General Conference Weekend

I always look forward to General Conference weekends. It's even better in Brazil because that means all the talks will be in English, don't cha know! 
No need to struggle with all that Portuguese.

Anyway, our weekend began on Friday night with a dinner/dance sponsored by the Young Men and Young Women. 
We had a great time and the food was delicious. We left before the real dancing began.


We could sleep in on Saturday and Sunday because our GC times were not until 1:00, 5:00, and 9:00 (for the Priesthood Session). 
Sadly, no matter how many treats Don gathered, he just couldn't stay awake for every single talk

What a wonderful two days - filled with the Spirit. I love our Church leaders and the messages they shared. Some of my favorite quotes from these two days include (in no particular order):








 












I know I will find more favorite quotes when I am able to reread these talks in the Ensign next month. Until then....what did you find most meaningful and helpful for you for these next six months?

Our Spiritual Feast was then followed with a little food feast prepared by Dianne. We missed our families but this was a good substitute!

Now, may we take what we have learned
 and 
GO & DO!!
