Beautiful Conference Weekend

Braxton, Kaydon and Colton and I spent Sunday with my parents at their home. It was a beautiful... like extraordinarily beautiful day. It seems as though most conference weekends are rainy and cold. This past weekend was amazing. My cousin, Shanna, and her husband brought their one month old baby girl. So, in Heidi fashion... I held her for most of conference. It was heaven. She is the first great-grandDAUGHTER in our family. I have four boys, Brandon has two boys, another cousin has two boy, and yet another cousin has one boy. Welcome to the family, Amberlyn.

Jackson left for St. George with his buddies yesterday morning. He listened to conference on the way down. A cool side note: some of them are members, some of them aren't. My boys have always had more non-member friends than member friends. Those boys on this St. George trip who are members are going to the St. George Temple this week to do baptisms. On their spring break. My breath has been taken away.

Finally... I have had less than adequate patience with Colton as of recently. Like, I have none. Like, my patience tank is on empty and all of the fuel tanks are suddenly dry. Braxton has been incredible the last week or so. He has taken Colton out of the house, to run errands with him, to play with him, to put movies in for him. I have been so thankful for Brax and his brotherly love AND motherly love this week!
