Conference Weekend

Who doesn't love Conference Weekend!? One of the best weekends of the year by far. Started off the weekend with a little temple date night and then got daring and made homemade tootsie rolls!! This was the first time watching conference together at our own place, and even though we had to set it up through our laptop, it was perfect starting our own family tradition of making it a priority to watch General Conference!

Saturday night, while the men went to the General  Priesthood meeting, the girls all got together for crafts! Mom, the sisters, and a new friend named Amy. Our GNO (girls night outs) have become a family tradition. We have been so craft crazy lately that we are trying to do it at least once a month! This months was of course Halloween themed!

Here we have our potion bottles and my black lace pumpkin! 


These Mummy and Frankenstein jars were a cinch and fun to make.  

 
  
Two Kodak moments I caught on camera this week... Liam hiding behind a tree in the backyard after he stole a toy and Ethan picking Berkley up to smell grandma's roses!!



 Our new friend Amy brought her adorable baby pig over for a visit on Sunday! Gracie loved Ethan and now he is convinced he needs a baby pig. Maybe someday...but maybe not! haha




It's funny how an adorable baby pig can really bring the family together! 







Our tootsie rolls turned out pretty darn good. Ethan loves tootsie rolls and was so stoked when he found this recipe, we just had to try it on date night. Not exactly the taste of tootsies but yummy bite size pieces of chocolate for sure!
