Spring Weekend

Today, a rainy and gray day, is the beginning of spring break. Monday, which has snow in the forecast, is the last day of spring break. That's right, instead of a traditional spring break, we have a four-day weekend.

But wait, you might be saying, have't you had a ton of snow days? Doesn't that make up for such a short break? Well, I guess it could if we were just looking at days off from school. Except that snow days are unexpected and generally keep you at home. Spring break holds the possibility of adventure outside the house. And we may still fit in some adventure, that's to be determined, but it will be a low-key adventure at best.

It's a good thing the Saturday and Sunday of spring break are two of my favorite days of the year. We are all excited that it's General Conference weekend. Sophie even included her anticipation in her personal prayers one night this week when she said she was thankful that it was almost General Conference. And General Conference on Easter? That's even more spectacular.
