We pitched our tent

For general conference this year we decided to take an idea from the Book of Mormon, to make it fun and exciting as well as a great memory for the kids. The scripture says:

"and they pitched their tents round about the temple, every man having his tent with the door thereof towards the temple, that thereby they might remain in their tents and hear the words which King Benjamin should speak unto them"

In true Baili fashion....she decorated the inside of the tent with pillows, blankets, stuffed animals & craft supplies. It helped the kids be more reverent during the talks. I love conference time & the spirit that is brought into our home as we listen to the words of the prophet & apostles. I LOVE the Mormon Tabernacle choir and usually cannot get through a song without shedding a tear. They are truly amazing.
