General Conference and Flowers



A bunch of pictures from this weekend. Yesterday, before the first session of General Conference, we ran a few errands stopping at Target and Home Depot. We found more great deals at Target, including a cute chair for Calista (yes, 75% off) for her to use during conference (and more, obviously). While Danae ran in to Home Depot, Calista and I just couldn't just wait in the car, so we got out and Calista had fun running from flower to flower smelling and touching them.

Calista was great during Conference. She especially enjoyed the children's choir that sang during the Saturday afternoon session. Every time they sang, she would run to the computer, smile, and watch intently. She especially enjoyed I Am a Child of God, which she hears Mommy and/or Daddy sing to her each night before bed.

Last night, during the Priesthood session of conference, Danae had a few sisters from the ward over for a "Girl's night". They had fun painting nails, trading lotions, getting haircuts from Danae, and just having girl talk.

What a fun chair! It looks so comfortable (for those of a diminutive size like Calista). I'm so glad you guys started a blog. You chose a good template design; this looks just like my blog. :)

I'm not sure how I was logged in to post that last comment - this is my real account (if you're looking for a link to my blog, it will be through this profile).

Okay, I figured it out. I was logged into my Gmail account when I posted the first comment, which is different than my Blogger account (they're both Google, but I started a blog before I got Gmail). Sorry about all these ridiculous comments. :)

What a great weekend!
Also, Hazel had hair that looked similar to Calista's before she got tight ringlets. It's so easy to do.

Seriously, how cute is she? Her hair is getting so long! I'm so glad to see some update pictures! I'm so excited that you are part of the blogging world. It is so fun.

What a cutie! I love Calista's hair. She's grown up a lot since the last pictures I've seen.

Glad to see you had a good Conference weekend. Noah liked the Primary songs, too. I still look for your mom every time the choir sings and think of you. :)

I'm glad to see you've switched to the blog. I'm making a link to your blog on my blog right now, which is dallinmaren.blogspot.com.

Have a great day!

I can't believe how much Calista has changed in the few months we've been gone. What a beauty!
