I Love to See the Temple

I finally got Miriam over to the Payson temple in her baptism dress to take some pictures. I always put a picture of the temple up in the kids room and I wanted her to see herself there some day in another white dress some day. :)

 Miriam is my angel girl and am continually grateful for her.  She can get Melody to do a lot of things I can't and console her when others can't. Miriam is the best big sister in the world. She is a hard worker and willing to help out

 Rachel came along and insisted in being in some pictures too.

August Birthdays

 Happy Birthday Mom! We seemed to mostly have gone to celebrating with food it seems. ;) The kids helped Dad make a cake for her. We made traditional strawberry waffles and had a movie night at Ryan's. Though somehow we never got to giving presents so perhaps we'll do a half way celebration.

 

Happy Birthday Ryan! We actually had the kids be a part of his crepe production after the Salem parade (we got to be on the library float!). We also went out to see a movie together besides traditional lasagna dinner. Though we didn't do his cell phone cake (mom tried to copy his smart phone) till November 13 right before sending the kids back to Eric.

 

Happy Birthday Aaron!

 Upper left Aaron with his own German Pancake that we put candles in for him. Center him with his gifts: he got a scripture case with accessories of multi colored pencil and notebook (to replace his church backpack moving toward actually listening in Sacrament meeting). Right with his birthday balloons and bottom left eating his birthday dinner of pizza (still favorite food) after we went to the Fun center.

 

We went to the Fun Center on his birthday stopping at McDonalds on the way to play with their happy meals (don't know why I didn't get any pictures :( ). The kids had a blast and didn't want to leave forever though Melody had a rough time not being big enough for anything but the carousel. Though we didn't get around to having his Baymax cake till November 6 right before switching to Daddy's again.
