Back to the Temple

We took our 7 kids out to Temple square. Here we are at the Salt Lake Temple where John and I were married 12 1/2 years ago. Isn't wonderful that families can be forever.

Funny Things

Variety of Funny Kid Events

1. I bought Rachel a new princess doll and told her that when she learns to clean her room she can have it. Instead of Rachel putting the toys back into the boxes and the boxes back onto the shelves in her closet, She "sets up" her toys. A few examples of her "set-ups" would be lining all of the toys up in front of the boxes in a very neat straight line, or setting up the doll house furniture on her floor with the dolls around it, or having a dishes set up like for dinner with the food all on the dishes, or her dolls all lined up with blankets or burp rags laying on top of the dolls and dishes all around. Sometimes her bedroom will have all of these sorts of "set-ups" all at the same time.
2. When we pulled up to the library yesterday, Adam asked if he could bring his sword into the library. I said that he could if he did not hit any books or any kids. Adam then put down his sword and said, "Then I won't bring it in, " and he left his sword in the car.
3. Ruth brought home a science quiz that she had gotten one problem wrong on. Her answer was just hilarious. The question was: Why is the Sky Blue? Ruth answered: Because blue is a more showy color than red.
   

A Good Night's Sleep

Adam slept about an hour and a half later than anyone else this morning. When I asked him if he had a good nights sleep, he replied, "I had a wiggily one."

I just love the cute way kids express things.

A beautiful Sky and A Great Home

This is in our back yard. We are located right at the point of the mountain on the Salt Lake and Utah county lines. We get some pretty beautiful sky lines out here. I really do love where we have moved too.  I love that we are 25 minutes to SLC and 25 minutes to Provo. I love my neighbors. I love the backyard park, and I love the floor plan of our house. I love that my kids love it here enough that they would rather stay here in this neighborhood and school than move into a big fancy house somewhere else. Another big plus is this is the only place we could find that we could fit our family into and have a house payment that we can afford. The one thing that worried me about moving to Utah was the cost of housing. But Heavenly Father did help us find a truly good place for our family.

Squirts Car

Adam telling John about his hot wheels sports car: This is a squirts car, it doesn't squirt cause its just a toy, but a real squirts car can squirt. He was quite insistent that it was a "squirts car" and that while his toy one didn't squirt, real one's do.
