Donut Party

The weekend finally came! Conference weekend is one that we really enjoy around here, especially since we don't have to bring the boys to church, and we can actually somewhat listen! YEAH for that! Conference was so amazing, and we loved to hear all of the testimonies of all of the prophets and apostles. We are so excited for Elder Neil L. Anderson to be part of the Quorum of the 12 Apostles. He will be wonderful.
As per tradition, we always (we meaning my family) have a wonderful donut party while the boys are at Priesthood session, and since I have moved here, I have done it here! This just might be the first time that I actually took pictures! So here we are at the semi-annual donut party! We had quite the turn out, so thanks to everyone that brought soup/salad/pregnant bellies! It was quite the bash! We made about 160 donuts plus all of the holes. Of course we all eat too much but what's a party for right?



The coveted Glazed donuts! This is right before the boys came home, and was about 1/3 of the donuts. They were gone SO fast!

Cinnamon and sugar/sugar donuts were of course a hit too!

Katie and Sarah Hoffman ROCKIN the glaze and sugar post. I seriously couldn't do it without these Hoffman girls! They never leave their posts!

Little Payton was quite elusive that night...he just went from person to person asking for donuts. Nobody ever knew if he had already had one, so he probably at about 10! Atta boy!

The BOMB room after the end of the night. Thanks girls for picking up! I don't know what I would have done! The kids sure had fun though! So much fun that after the party, when all of the donuts were LONG gone, Lincoln finally came up to me and said..."okay Mom, I'm ready for a donut now!"

Here's the two ROCK STARS of the party! Steph (in blue) was due THAT DAY! She really didn't want to come to the party, but wanted to have a baby instead, can't imagine why!) and Susan is due in a couple of weeks.

The boys loadin up after they got home from Conference. MAN those dudes can eat!

Two of our LOVELY soup chefs. Lindsay Moss and Anna Gordon. Thanks girls!

We always have the boys go around the room and tell us a little something that they learned during conference so that us girls can partake as well! Thanks guys!

We had a great time, so thanks to all who came and made it possible. We can't wait for October!
