"oh how we need general conference!"

Elder Robert D. Hales
"Through conferences our faith is fortified and our testimonies deepened. And when we are converted, we strengthen each other to stand strong amid the fiery darts of these last days."

Carole M. Stephens
"We all need each other. Sons of God need daughters of God, and daughters of God need sons of God.

We have different gifts and different strengths. First Corinthians chapter 12 emphasizes the need for sons and daughters of God, each one of us, to fulfill our individual roles and responsibilities according to the Lord’s plan, that all may benefit."


President Dieter F. Uchtdort
"Doubt your doubt before you doubt your faith."


President Boyd K. Packer
"Parents today wonder if there is a safe place to raise children. There is a safe place. It is in a gospel-centered home. "


Elder D. Todd Christofferson
"A woman’s moral influence is nowhere more powerfully felt or more beneficially employed than in the home."

"My plea to women and girls today is to protect and cultivate the moral force that is within you. Preserve that innate virtue and the unique gifts you bring with you into the world."


Elder S. Gifford Nielsen
"I know we each must develop and carry out our own personal game plan to serve with enthusiasm alongside the full-time missionaries—EXCLAMATION POINT!"


And so many more good words from this conference. 
It makes my heart so happy when our children get excited for conference, even if it's because of the crepes, sleeping in tents, m&m's and bingo. I'll take it, because it's the consistency that matters and I'm sure, one day, they'll realize just how much we need general conference!!


Poor guy was trying so hard for so long to get those chocolate chips and anything else his brothers had.





and because I love being a wife and mother so much and because I love this family of mine so intensely, I want to be with them forever! 

Oh how I need general conference!
