I love to see the Temple

The kids ask every day when is Moroni going to be placed on the temple and the other day I was pleased to say that today was the day. We wanted to get a good seat so we picked up the crew and headed out about 10:00. We got there and got out all of our stuff and the kids had fun running around and then the rain started. It was just a few drops and then about an hour later it started raining really hard. We only had two umbrellas and so we tried to buddy up but it was a little cramped. So Brynlee, Jax and I were standing out and enjoying the rain but that got old quick when the rain did not let up. So a kind lady let us borrow her umbrella and we tried to say dry. Needless to say we did not and we were soaked but we did not mind because we were going to see Angel Moroni in just a few minutes placed on the temple. Well we waited and waited but the weather was not cooperating and the kids were getting tired and wanted to go home so we packed up and left. Sadly we did not get to see Moroni fly through the air but Maddison and I were able to catch them do the finishing touches on our way to violin. It was quite an adventure and it was fun to see how big he really is on the ground. The kids want to drive by every day to look at the temple.

Little Miss






This year we put Maddison and Brynlee in the Perry Days little Miss contest it is just a cute pageant where they have all the little kids come and they tell about each one and then they put all their names in a hat and draw out the winners and....... Maddison won!! She was this years Little Miss Liberty. She was so excited and she was very cute. When we got her dressed for the pageant she said "oh mom I hope I win that would be so great" and here i was giving her the pep talk "now even if we don't win it is ok and at least we had fun right?" Then she gave me that look like "what ever" and then walked away. But she did win and she so happy.

The Fourth

This year we went to the Lindon City pool for the 4th and the kids had a blast as you can see from the pics. Brynlee hated the water at first but just as we were about to go home she started to enjoy herself.
This is Jax right after he came off the slide
