Youth Conference

Dave and I were chaperones for youth conference this year. I got off easy (two of my girls didn't show up so I only had two 17 year old, well behaved girls to keep track of at night). Dave had a room full of 14 year old boys. Need I say more? But it really was a great experience. We have great youth in our stake and it was fun to watch their testimonies grow.

I am glad that Dave survived! I can only imagine what that job was like. Only imagine, which is all that I care to do when thinking about boys that age. Maybe your weekly, detailed updates will motivate me to make monthly ones. I think that I will finally do it this week...

I hope you were actually able to have fun, Dave. I love your pictures. It reminds me of our family trip out there three years ago, when Savannah was so little. That was a great trip. Too bad you didn't get "Dick" for your bus driver.
