Temple Open House

I was able to go to the temple open house again last night with the young women. What a great experience. I was nice to go but I sure missed going with my kids. Shae was so cute when we went. She loved "Jesus' place." She loved all the chandeliers. Especially the one in the celestial room. She leaned over to her daddy and said (of course in a 3 year olds "quiet" voice) "Daddy I need that for my room." She was so in love with the beauty of it. She also called the Oxen that hold the baptismal font, moose. She kept talking about the moose at the temple. I couldn't remember the moose. Then it hit me, it was the oxen.

Hunter was also so fun to take. He is my more serious one. He loved the beauty and was so reverent. I was so impressed how mature he was. He loved the spirit and loved the sealing room mirrors. I feel so blessed that I could enjoy that with them.

The temple is so beautiful. I'm so grateful that I was able to go with the youth. An experience I'll never forget.

I think I have some issues. I have spent all night long working on secret sister gifts for camp and work handouts. Why do I make things so complicated? But I must say, they all look very cute. (with out sounds conceited of course :) !! )

I want to be the mom

So Shae was snuggling on my lap tonight and she said to me, "Mom, I want to be the mom." It was so cute. I asked her why and she said, "Cause I want to always say no to stuff." Apparently the mom always says no to everything. I think there is some truth in it. I love my girly girl.

Movie Star Girls

Addi and Shae thought they looked like movies stars. I think they do! So cute.

Pictures with Uncle Mitch

Mitch took the kids up Butterfield canyon and took some great pictures. Mitch has such a great eye. I sure hope he keeps up with photography. Thanks Mitch!!

What to do?

Well, baseball is finally over and now we are not sure what to do. Crazy that life revolves so much around baseball. I'm sure we will find something to occupy our time. Maybe our house will get the attention it needs and we will be able to finish our painting project, among many, many others.

Final All Star Game

West Jordan All Star #1 Team lost today. Hunter had a wonderful game! He made a great play at second. He dove to catch a pop fly at second, catching under another player. He then through it to home to get another player tagged out. He hit all 3 times, but they had a great defense and he got out all 3 times. I'm truly sad that summer baseball is over. ...But fall ball here we come!
