This week has been much of the same... except they are putting on the shingles!!!  We are scheduled to have our 4 way inspection on Monday (heating, plumbing, electrical and framing)!  Then onto insulation and sheet rock!  Yipee... a little break from the house for us!  Just in time for Zack to get back!

Catching Up!

We got to try out the new ER that just got finished.  Russ got a big sliver in his arm and the Dr. had to extend the opening another inch to get the sucker out!  It has healed fairly nicely now!  The sliver had broken off into the fatty tissue.... we knew it was at least a 1/2 inch long chunk in there so we went to the Doctors.

After running to Lowe's one night we arrived home to a very nice dinner.  They even dressed up!  Love these kids!

Pretty much everyone is tuckered out at our house... if anyone sits still for very long, this is usually what happens.  Sometimes a quick cat nap really does the trick!

Best garage sale find ever!  I had seen something sort of like this on pinterest.  I got my windows for $15 total... they are big and it stands about 5 feet tall.  We put it together in about 15 minutes.  The gate is one from my dad's shop!  It fit perfectly... now I just need to figure out where I want it and make it so the gate can swing!

Temple Square

A couple of weeks ago we needed to be down early for a farewell talk and then later for FHE.  We decided to go to the LDS conference center and take a tour while we waited for Meg and Catie to catch up with us.

We then toured the temple grounds after they got there.  I LOVE this picture of Ben and Catie.  It was what happened after I told them to kiss in front of the temple.  I don't know if they did...but I like this picture even better!

Morgan took this picture of the Salt Lake temple.  So pretty with all the flowers!  (She laid down on the sidewalk to get the angle!)  I highly suggest taking a day and going while it is sooo pretty!

Morgan and Russ

We usually try to get to the temple and take a few pictures that the kids can have in their rooms.  The first is taken at temple square...  you kinda have to be upside down to get the shot... but they turn out great.

This second one is on the roof of the LDS Conference center... Which one do you like best?  (Not counting Brayden's goofy smile)  The conference center tour was definitely worth going just to see all the original art work that is there!
