What a great conference weekend! I'm so glad Tygan and I got to spend some time together at home and listen to some awesome messages.

Leading up to Conference, I kept trying to think of what we should establish as our family tradition for General Conference. I couldn't think of anything, but we did end up making an experimental breakfast food, so maybe that will be our tradition!

I found out early on that Tygan and I have different approaches to Conference note-taking. I'm more the boring, organized bullet-point type; Tygan likes to draw pictures of space sharks:

My main takeaway is that I should
simplify and trust God by doing the following:
- Improve consistency in personal prayer and scripture reading.
- Whenever tempted to have a negative thought about someone, try to remember what matters most. Focus on family.
- Hold regular "personal councils," asking God what is keeping me from progressing, then listening and acting one step at a time.
- Do not fear trials. Don't dwell on what could go wrong; remember that it will all work out.
- Continue to save money and avoid debt. (Glad I got my budget squared away yesterday!)
- "Ponderize" a scripture weekly.
It was a pretty solid weekend. Let's hope it makes a pretty solid six months.
