Mormons, Mormons everywhere...

My camera would not cooperate, but those fuzzy people are the twelve apostles and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir; their recordings don't do them justice. It was amazing.
Here is the conference center, 84,000 Mormons attended this weekend. 4 sessions holding 21,000 people at a time.
Us with our friends the Jackson's, who were sealed in the temple on Friday!
All the Mormons gathereing on Temple Square!

The beautiful Temple, our family was sealed here in 1998!

I love the architecture of the assembly building.

We have arrived home from our trip to Utah. Jeff and I are both from Utah and have never really thought to visit during Conference weekend. It is something we took advantage of while living there, and didn't realize what an impact it would have on our children. We try to get home once a year to keep in contact with the family. This visit we happened to be able to attend the temple sealing of one of my best friends Katie and her husband James! Congrats! We were also able to meet Elder Kukuchi of the 70's. What an amazing humble man! I can't begin to explain all the spiritual experiences we enjoyed. We definately needed it! We were also able to get tickets to General Conference on Sunday afternoon and see the prophet speak. We were amazed at how many Mormons there really are. Living outside of Utah, we are so outnumbered, it was fun for the kids, side note: Kylee noticed all the nice looking Mormon boys. That made me laugh. Here are some pics.
