Ready for Spring....NOW!

Saturday was such a gorgeous day.  We decided to meet up with my girlfriend Sharon at a park in Draper.  Das bought a double stroller that also attaches to his bike.  He brought that along.  Logan loves it.

Logan was excited to try the slide for his very first time.

But he wasn't so sure about it at the end. lol

Sharon's little boy Nathan is such a cutie.  The boys have lots of fun with him.
I can't believe how fast Maxwell is changing.  They grow up way to fast.
Tristan and Ashton love to climb.  I am better off not watching them, cuz I'm afraid they will fall.

But Das of course loves to encourage them.  I guess its good they aren't afraid of heights like I am.

We stayed for a couple of hours at the park and had to get home to get ready for dinner club at Ben and Heather's.  The food was so good.  I need to get the recipes.  Surprisingly, I didn't get many pictures.  The ones I got were of Kevin and Leesa during our game against them seeing which couple could catch the most marshmallows in their mouth.  Das and I lost.  It was a good laugh.  Then we had to rush out.  Logan had been sick, and we didn't want to leave him to long with the sitters.  Hopefully now that the weather is getting nicer, we won't have any colds in our house for a while.  I don't realize how much I dislike the winter until Spring comes around.  Then I can send the kids outside to play as well as get myself out in the yard.  And we excited for our trip to St.George/Vegas in a few weeks.  As well as all our other trips planned this summer.  I am glad I won't spend  my summer being pregnant.  Just fat. lol

Going to the Temple

Thursday morning we were rushing to get the kids off so we could make it to the Temple.  We were really excited.  This would be our very first sealing that we got to attend together (other than our own.) 
Taylor and Paige chose the Draper Temple for their wedding.  It was such a beautiful day for a wedding.  The room was filled with loved ones, and the spirit was strong.  I am so thankful for Temples and eternal families. 

After the sealing we hung out in the sun waiting for the bride and groom to emerge.  During our wait my sister Dianne passed around some chapstick for us girls to use.  A few minutes later my lips were tingling and then burning.  Turns out it was a limp plumper.  Which apprently worked the best on me and everyone kept laughing and staring. Nice!  I didn't notice much of a difference in the size.  But they sure felt funny for a while.  And then we talked about my nephew Mike above proposing to his gf.  Congrats Mike and Meagan!  So excited for you two! 

 Then the ravishing bride came out just glowing.  We are so excited to have Paige join our family.  She is such a joy to be around.  Thanks for letting us be a part of your perfect day.
















Families can be together forever.  I am so thankful for my husband and grateful he took me to the temple so that we can be together forever. 

The reception later that evening was held at "This is the Place."  It was so much fun to see everyone and to see it all come together.  Food was fantabulous and the entertainment was divine(my sister Amy and her husband).  My sister Rebecca was so thrilled to now say she has a daughter and she was proud of Taylor for the young woman he chose.

-This past week has been extremely busy for us.  I am glad it is over.  But it sure was a great week.
Wednesday night my sister in law Keli came to babysit for us while we headed downtown for my nephew Taylor's wedding dinner.  We enjoyed a delicious dinner while we watched a video my sister Rebecca put together of Taylor and Paige.  Then my very talented sister Amy performed a couple of songs with her daughter and her husband.  Followed by my nephews singing "Afternoon Delight" to the bride and groom.  It was a beautiful evening!
