{Rachel & Jessica}: Celebrate 6 Months {Rachel}

Every 6 months my religion has what we call General Conference. This is where all of the church members tune in/listen to all our general authorities speak and give advice/revaluation. This is a 2 day affair with 4 sessions (2 on Saturday and 2 on Sunday). At the first session on Saturday President Monson announced that our missionaries can go out onto the field at a younger age! Elders and the age of 18 and Sisters at the age of 19! That is super exiting! That means I can go on a mission, go to collage, and get married/have a family before I am 25/24 ish! I was talking to my mom about this interesting change and she brought up that the church will be getting a different type of sister missionary, not the "Oh, I guess I have nothing else to do so I might as well serve a mission" but the "Oh, I really have time for this and it will be a great experience for me" kind of sisters.

Where I was going with this is... for 2 days straight my family (and I) hang our on the couch/in the basement! During this time my mom and I scrapbook so we can keep up with all the pictures we take. This conference she wanted to get though all of 2010 (Ya, we are that far behind...) so she asked me to do mine and Kate's books. I had lots of fun working with her and I also sewed my new pointe shoes!
