We love to see the temple

Today was Stake Temple Day and Delaney’s first time to go. Adi’s now been three times, Frankie twice, and now Delaney once. I’ve been working the the missionaries and Cyndi who lives in our neighborhood, and she agreed to drive to the temple with us. Since Matt was out of town all last week, he couldn’t come, so Chelsea and crew drove with us. Cyndi is a native Mandarin Chinese speaker, and I really wanted another friend there to chat with us. We were one seat short, so Adi rode up with Aina’s and everything worked perfectly. The kids took lots of pictures. 
Delaney was SO excited to be there. You just never know with this girl. She really is so sweet, but she’s so salty too. 

She decided she wanted to take notes as we walked through the temple, and she did and they are the cutest. She wanted to keep them for herself, so I’ll just say she wrote a lot of “stunnings,” and “I have no words.” It was really really precious. 

This is a throwback to the Philadelphia Temple Open House when she couldn’t handle having the booties on her feet. 

“Why do I have to wear these???”

Then we all tried to get her to smile, Josh even bribed her with gum. He was telling her to smile and she was trying to use her hand to make herself smile. And I quote “I am smiling!”

Old friends and new friends. 💕



It was so fun to see so many friends, we even drove neck and neck with the Wolferz’. We were encouraged to only stay for our Stake’s allotted 2 hours, so we left around 11:30. We grabbed lunch and I backed into a pole at the worlds worst Chick-fil-A parking lot. Lucky Adi got to go to Cheesecake Factory with Aina’s. 

Sarah sent me some pics. One of these days we’ll be at the temple all together and can take a family picture. 

More driving shots. They were actually really good and fairly quiet for the long drive. 

We got home at 1:30. We had wings and fresh veg for dinner, practiced piano, had a fun family night lesson from D, and cheesecake Adi brought home for a treat. 

And our little farmer. This summer he’ll become a little Japanese farmer, but for now he’s still a straight Montanian.
