General Conference

I tried something new for General Conference this year.  I put a picture of each of the 12 apostles and the first presidency on a brown paper sack.  Inside each sack was either a coloring page or an activity or a treat to eat.  Each time that particular general authority spoke they got to open his sack to see what was inside.  It actually worked out really good (you never know!!) and it kept the kids interest.

The funny thing about it was, Lulu somehow peeked in the bags and found out that one of them had beef jerky inside, her favorite!  Every time a new apostle spoke she would ask if this was the beef jerky guy which happened to be Elder Renlund.  As it turns out, Elder Renlund was the VERY LAST speaker on Sunday afternoon!  It was hilarious, and purely coincidence.
