The Trezise's watched General Conference in the family room and James and I watched it in the bedroom.
Sunday a.m. session
20. "Be an Example and a Light" - Thomas S. Monson
Towards the end of President Monson's talk he started to falter and was leaning against the pulpit. Pres. Uchtdorf was on the edge of his seat with his arms outstretched ready to catch Pres. Monson if he began to fall. After the talks was over he and another brother escorted Pres. Monson back to his seat.
Two Primary aged children drew pictures of what they saw while
President Monson was speaking. They said they saw angels beside him helping him.

As we were listening to the closing song of this session I told James that I was hungry for hashbrowns. When the session was over we went out into the kitchen and lo and behold, Sheri was cooking hashbrowns! She also made bacon, eggs, and biscuits. It was a nice lunch between conference sessions!

James and I drove to Springerville in the truck to check out the pinion crop. It started raining when James got out of the car.
Looking for pinions in the rain.
The crop here was a little disappointing.
Back home I made taco soup for dinner. Sheri, Ian and the boys had steak. mashed potatoes, and broccoli.
We finished our Five Crowns game and Max ended up winning after Sheri was ahead the entire time.
James and Alex played chess and Alex won!
Two deep thinkers
For dessert we made smores. James had made a fire in the fireplace and the coals made the most perfectly toasted marshmallows!
