In preparations for last weekend, Jed and I wanted to start some traditions we can have in our family. We decided on a couple of things. First, I would make Orange Pull-Aparts for breakfast. Jed's mom makes this for Christmas, but as I have my own mother's traditions of what we eat for Christmas that I would like to make, I thought this would be a great tradition to transfer over to General Conference--plus then Jed gets a special meal he loves TWICE a year rather than once :).
The other tradition is a rather silly one but we loved it! I read online that a great idea for children is to pretend you are like the people of King Benjamin in the Book of Mormon and build a tent or fort that faces the TV, like how the people of King Benjamin had their tents facing the tower when he spoke to them. So we built a fort! I think it will be very fun for our future kids, but we also enjoyed it immensely!
Here it is on the outside...
And here is the inside!
We loved it, loved General Conference, and already can't wait for October to come so we can have it again!
I make Orange Pull-aparts for conference morning too!
