This Weekend was our Stake Conference and Elder Holland came to visit. It was a wonderful weekend! Elder Phippen of the 5th Quorum of the Seventy was the General Authority that came with him and they were both great! David, Becca, and I were all in the choir, so that left Rachel down in the audience to keep control of Chelsie and Nathan. She did pretty well, but I guess she had to separate them and sit between them. At one point, Elder Holland was speaking to the youth, and rather loudly said, "Don't ever leave the church." That scared Chelsie. She wasn't sure if we would ever be allowed to go back to our home. Rachel explained it to her and she felt better.

Of course, the Saturday night session was great. As I was entering the building Saturday night, the leaders were still eating their dinner just off of the kitchen, and my friend called out and said, "Shannan, I used your bread stick recipe!" She was all excited, and I felt kind of good. Elder Holland has eaten my very fattening bread sticks (ha, ha, ha).

Hey Shannan-
Thanks again for that wonderful blanket that you made for us. Those take so much time to do. It will be really fun to come and spent a family night with you in the spring. Cute idea. I hope that you made it home ok in the snow. Sorry that David couldn't come. Well we will see you on Christmas. Let us know if we need to bring anything for lunch or if we are planning to eat munchies or what. Talk to you soon, Anne
