Snow!!

This morning an unusual thing occurred, I only had to ask the boys to get out of bed once.  Usually I have to request they arise numerous times since 6:30 comes pretty early.  Why was it different today?  It snowed last night.  I told the boys there was snow on the ground and they got up, dressed and played in the snow for 10 minutes before they left for school.  All the kids loved the novelty of snow in Mississippi, yes it is not near what you Idaho, Wyoming, and Utah people have, but it was fun and cold.

Temple Trip

The ward had a temple trip planned for Saturday and we wanted to go.  It ended up being a lot longer trip than originally planned because of ice.  The free-way was closed in Baton Rouge due to ice on the bridges.  This meant we spent extra time working our way to the temple and missed the session we were scheduled to attend.  Kyle was wonderful and watched the kids so that I could attend a latter session.  I really needed the temple experience and am so grateful for that holy place.

Here are some pictures of some of the 7 hours spent in the car.

Hyrum, Wendy, and Mom

Wendy and Hyrum are fun to be with.  Here is wendy posing after a Princess Birthday party she attended.  They fixed their hair, painted their nails, and put make-up on.  Wendy was thrilled.  Hyrum is showing off his wings.  He loves to fly.

Here I am in my pregnant glory.  One month left!
