Conference Activities for Kids

1 Apr

Children's April 2010 Conference Activity Packet

So anyone that has kids knows that keeping them engaged and interested for 2 days and 8 hours can be a little bit of a challenge. They have a hard enough time doing an hour sacrament meeting… or maybe it’s just our family ;-)

I opened up my MormonTimes today in the Deserest News and they had an entire 2 pages of activities for kids to do during conference. It included word finds, bingo, coloring page and images of the first presidency and 12 apostles. If you get the Deseret news go check it out!

Better yet I went to their website and downloaded the children’s April 2010 activity packet. 22 pages of activities ready for you to print on your computer. Covers kids of all ages and includes even more stuff then what you can find in the newspaper.

Enjoy conference everyone!

How has 9/11 impacted your life?

11 Sep

I saw this great video from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. It depicts a great story of one of the 9/11 survivors and how he changed his life for the better through his experience.

I remember that on September 11, 2001 I arrived at West High School in Tracy CA where I taught 9th grade Physics. Mya was only a month old and Carrie and I lived in Manteca CA. I remember when I arrived at school everyone was in shock. We were all watching the news. The entire day we dedicated to watching the news and trying to understand what was happening.

Enjoy the video! I did.

Trent’s officially an RN

9 Jun

Thought I’d help spread the word that Trent (that’s my brother) passed his Utah RN exam and received his RN license yesterday! We’re all proud of him and think it’s simply awesome! He is fielding a few different job opportunities (he’s in high demand ;-) ) both locally in Orem/Provo area as well as mid/southern Utah.
