The Temple and Family

Last week we were lucky enough to have Doug's sister and her family in town for a short visit. We met them for lunch on Monday and had so much fun with Savannah and baby Will!!

The next day we went with them to the zoo.  It was so fun.  Lewis was seriously obsessed with Will.  It was hilarious. Will didn't think so though.

On Monday we went to the Payson temple with Doug's family. It was fun to go with them and so nice!! It was seriously gorgeous inside.  There were a lot of happy chills and tears. 

In the Celestial Room we had a local bishop talk to us about sealings.  At the end he asked if anyone had any questions.  Mabel raised her hand and said "Jesus lives here." The bishop assured her he does.  It was kind of a sweet moment.

 It was seriously such a pretty day when we were there!! The temple almost doesn't look real in this picture!

 Here's a pictures of us about 4 years ago on the future temple site. Fun to see how it (and we!!) have changed.

After the temple we had everyone over for a Brazilliam BBQ.  The food was yummy and the company was great!

Mabel came home with this gem from preschool the other day.  She sure likes that Jesus.  She cracks me up.

 She also had a dance recital this week and did a great job.  I was proud of her.

 Doug brought home some gorgeous flowers just for fun the other day.  I sure love him and those kind of flowers!!

This past weekend we did a lot of yard work.  We ripped out a bunch of stuff in the front of the house an replanted the beds.  I'm excited to see how they grow!! I hope things will look really good in 5 years!

 Here's a little before and after of the front.  Those big tree bush things were not my favorite.

Sophia had a county report this week and chose Sanpete since that's where the Wales house is.  She did the whole poster by herself and did a great job.

 This little boy cracks me up.  Sophia put my belt on him after church.  Either I'm really skinny or he's really big! JK.

 Tonight we had Mabel's favorite dinner.  Spaghetti and meatballs.  Apparently she enjoyed it!

 And finally Lewis has loved playing with food lately.  He likes to make "tinner".  He decided the horse was hungry and needed some tinner too.
