I Heart BYU.TV


So being from Utah and Morman, I grew up watching General Conference at home on the couch in my pajama's. I didn't even realize that tons of members actually get dressed in there Sunday Best and go to the church to watch Conference, sitting on those hard benches for four hours a day. I just figured this is how you watch Conference, with treats, on the couch with the family.

Since then, I have had my share of watching Conference at the Stake Center on the hard benches. My husband has only been going to church for the last couple of years so, when he thinks of watching conferance, he just figures= Hard seat, Stake center, church clothes.

This last conference, was different. Joseph figured out that BYUTV.com would be showing conference. So we get it going on our large computer screen, stretch out on our couch, and Ahhhhh. Joseph was like, " I love BYU TV. I LOVE watching Conference at home" He thought it was an awesome novelty. But me, I was like, " ahhhh Good'ole Conference. Just how I like it."

So thanks to the internet and BYUTV.COM I got to the joy of watching Conference at home in my PJ's again. It was pretty wonderful. :)

Also, on a serious note. Conference was just wonderful this session. The words just filled out home with truth and the spirit of love. I couldnt' hear enough, and I felt strengthen, loved and thankful for being a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I can honestly say I Belive.

Ooh! Ooh! Me too. I LOVE having conference in our home and we watch it through BYU tv.com as well. I remember being a kid and watching all four sessions on those hard benches ...actually folding metal chairs.

Yeah, conference at home is the best. We always have Cinnamon rolls for the Saturday morning session. And conference was great. Conference just seems to get better and better as I get older.

Jo, if you have BYU TV on your cable provider (or satellite) you can still watch it at home on the couch!

Jamie we don't have television in our home. WE used to have an antenna but it broke so now we use the tv for video games and dvd's.
