Sundays are for Naps.. and Surprises

So today was a great Sunday. We had Regional Conference and Elder Uchtdorf and Elder Packer came to speak to us. It was a great way to start off the semester. It was so wonderful to have the leaders of the church come and give us the words of the Lord. It was wonderful! My favorite thing Elder Uchtdorf said was "do not fear. Fear is the opposite of faith". I really liked this. I need to remember it more often. After church, we came home and had roommate dinner, which was the first time we have all eaten together at the same time, in the same room, I think. It's always a good time for some roommate bonding. Because we had Regional Conference, we had church from 10:00 to 12:00, instead of 1:00 to 4:00, so we had so much time after church today. Perfect time for a nap. I slept only for an hour and a half, pretty impressive for being an Armstrong. But the reason I only slept for a short while is because my roommate came in and told us it was a perfet time to prank our neighbors! We've been planning a prank for a bit now and we've been waiting anxiously for the opportune moment. We are now starting a prank war with our guy friends in the apartmen down the alley from us, who we know from last year. We tried to go into their apartment this morning at 8:00 because we knew some of them had a meeting to attend. HOWEVER, darn responsible boys, locked their doors. So in the middle of nap time we tried again. The doors were unlocked when we went over there and no one was down stairs. Perfect! We placed our ransom poem on the table and then took all six of their kitchen chairs, their computer chair, and three banana chairs. We said they could have them back if they cooked us dinner... and so we wait. Needless to say, I love Sundays.
