Atlanta Temple Trip

We had the opportunity to drive down to Atlanta, Georgia and go to the Atlanta Georgia Temple open house. We took our friends the Muncys and boy was it an adventure. Here are our happy campers, at the beginning of the trip. It was a LOOONNNNGGGG drive!


Here is the temple lit up at night. And please note the swirling turmoil in the clouds overhead.


This is a really cute picture. Corbin is growing up.


Here is right after we finished touring the temple, and right before the tornado warning the sent us right back into the temple. But really, there was no safer place to be than the temple. Spiritually and physically.

The children really enjoyed visiting the temple and hopefully they'll remember this for a long time and remember how they felt inside.

Or at least remember wearing the booties over their shoes (which is all I remember when I was a little girl).


I'm really thankful that we had this opportunity and that we had a chance to take the Muncys down with us to. It was an amazing experience!

March Fun!

I realize that it isn't March, and I apologize. I just couldn't manage to get some of these pictures loaded onto our computer. But I just thought I'd share some of my faves from the month.

This, in case you can't tell, is an apron made out of blue jeans. Spencer needed a work apron for working on instruments (apparently some are notorious for getting nice pants greasy!). I also made sure that there were LOTS of pockets for various sundry items. Including, but not inclusive to, corks, screwdrivers, hammers, picks, rags, tuning thingamagiggers, dobobs, whatchamacallits, ets. The children helped me pick out the multiple colors for putting the pockets on. I mean really, this is a rad apron and very manly, and I think that there couldn't possibly anything like it anywhere in the world.

Here's Levi on our front porch. I included this picture because of our beautiful magnolia tree in the background. Spring is so wonderful!

My kids love spinach! Can you tell?
I think that look on Levi's face is becoming his norm "say cheese" face. And no matter what I say or do, that's the face he makes for the camera.

Somehow they got the brilliant idea to put little balls in their shirts. Some are definately funnier looking than others, but they're all real cute. I mean, really strong looking!
