Conference Weekend - Bench Family Style

This last weekend was general conference weekend! Which means that it was my favorite weekend of the whole year! I got to go home for two days (big trip from Provo to Orem) and spend all that time with my family.  It started off right with BYU crushing Utah State at their home (awesome!) and the next day was my dad's birthday!  The poor guy still made dinner for us though, haha, and it was delicious.  We had a shrimp boil, which consists of shrimp, corn on the cob, onions, potatoes (red, purple and white) and sausage! Then we had birthday cake for my dad after priesthood session, notice I don't have a shot of him blowing out his 47 candles because the crazy man thought that you were supposed to blow out the candles immediately following lighting them and just before singing happy birthday.  You would think he would have learned by now. I also went shopping with my sister and we chatted with my other sister in Portland on Sunday night after we ate delicious smoked brisket (made by dad) and watched a movie of my choice (Sons of Provo.... go watch it!)  I almost decided to quit college and just stay home, because this weekend was so great! Two days of conference is never enough, I wish we could have it more often then twice a year!

 Such yummy food!! The roasted red pepper soup was my favorite!! (homemade!)

Dad was dancing and jumping when he found out that we didn't catch him on camera!
