Follow the Prophet

Today, the Friendly Hero wanted to listen to the Prophet. It was great, we pulled up one of his talks from General Conference. While we were there listening to his wonderful stories, Friendly Hero noticed that he had a purple tie in this picture. All he would tell Dad was that "President Monson have a purple tie!" Or "The Prophet has purple tie!" Dad pulled out his purple tie and then put it on Friendly Hero, so he could Follow the Prophet.

We then sang, "The Elder Song." For everyone else, that's "I Hope They Call Me on a Mission." And whenever we sing about missionaries, he substitutes Elders in.

On a side note, I've been waiting for him to develop discomfort and then I would know that his 2 year molars are coming in. They haven't bothered him. He has one all the way in, one half way in, one peeking through, and one bump. He's a champ! I feel a little shameful that I didn't know at all.

TEMPLE!!!

I've got a few ideas for different posts, but I had to share how excited we are to find out that Indianapolis is getting a temple! We have been praying for it! We will probably still make visits to Chicago to see family, but won't feel like we're rushing to get to the temple. We are really excited to watch this progress--especially since we'll be here for five more years!

We were having difficulties getting conference to stream with sound and the only part we heard of President Monson's opening remarks was his talking about the temple dedications and then right after he announced the Indianapolis Temple we lost sound again. We got it working in time for the speakers, but feel extremely blessed that we heard about our new temple.

I love conference!
