The playhouse is nearly done.... though the kids are playing in it already!

Where is the Daddy?

It started raining really hard one Sunday.... After all the flooding that had been going on it was decided that the rest of church after Sactrament meeting would be canceled. We headed home and J cleaned out our big water tank to fill up and have in case (a water main had broken and we have been advised even before that that we needed to get a water supply because the well we are all on coulf be comprimised because of flooding...) .
So.... Emma where is Dadddy?

Oh! That is awkward! J jumped in the tank with Clorox to clean it all out for us!

And now....

Wait for it......

There is Daddy!!!

He missed his calling - he should have been a contortionist;)

Utah Sunday

On Sunday after church we headed to SLC to show the kids temple square! They were sooo excited to see the conference center! Hopefully they will remember hw cool it was to be there during the next General Conference!

I was talking to the kids about where the prophet sits and stuff...

On the roof! I love this place! The Conference center was being built when I was going to school, so it is fun to see whenever we visit!

The must have pic!

I love my forever family!!!!

This model of the temple is so amazing and so accurate! I was as amazed by it as the kids were!

Not a flatterimg picture - but I wanted to show grouchy Em, who did NOT get her way about something and was a stinker the rest of the afternoon. She is certainly not one to keep her moods to herself! ;)

I LOVE this picture!!!

Future missionary!

We also drove up to the Bountiful Temple and to Meuller park to say hi to my mission. I wish we had time to visit people!!!

It was a beautiful day!

When we got back to Hollys Chantelle was there too and we had some AWESOME lasagna that Holly had made! Sooo good! Then we hung out, thte kids played together so well and it was just a great day!

Utah at Night

After our busy day we decided to head to the fire station to see Uncle Tyler at work! The kids were all SOOOO excited! Russell was in heaven, and I want you to watch Hannah in these pics - I think we have found her future profession!

This kid is thrilled!

Learning about ambulance's

Checking out the fire truck!

Picture on the fire truck.

Tyler showing the kids his fire fighting clothes!

I am so amazed that even Hannah sat and was spellbound by the whole thing!

Riley LOVES her Daddy!

Russy getting to wear the hat!

With the jacket! He was a little nervous about putting it on, but he was sooo excited after it was on!

What a hottie!

Cute 'lil Burton!

I am a little biased, I think I have really cute kids... but I think these kids are sooooo cute too! Oh my goodness!

Sitting on the fire Engine! They thought the HUGE fire engine was so cool!

After the fire station tour we watched Tyler shot off fireworks in the parking lot!

Our kids had never seen fireworks before... they were pretty nervous about it!

Sparklers!!!

Peyton is so adorable - she is SOOOO tiny and running all over the place!

What an awesome day! We were pretty tired and fell into bed when we got back to Holly and Kris's house!
