Picture Catch-up


My little Chloe always finds the funniest places to sleep.  At least the one below she is in her bed.  It always amuses me how kids can be in the craziest positions and still sleep!


 Elliot's happy face and what I like to call his 'stink face'. 
 Sweet sisters.
Playing Pat-a-cake, Elliot's favorite game (although you can't tell by this picture since he's the only one not playing).

Quick trip to Washington


We ran up to Washington for a quick trip for Sean's Grandpa's memorial this month.  Chloe made sure she and Grandma Porter worked out the crossword puzzles each morning.


 Jillian was being a stinker that morning.
 Chloe wearing Grandpa Mike's summer hat.  She loved that thing!
 Chloe really likes the grandpas/uncles in her life.  Here she is getting some chuckles out of Uncle Keith.
 Grandma Galland/Campbell with all the grandkids (I'll get your name right one of these days, Laurie!).
L-R: Jillian, Chloe, Kimber, Anna, Elliot with Grandma in the back.
Hanging out with the Kelley Cousins.  
It was a short trip but I think we all had a good time and enjoyed seeing everyone an unexpected second time this summer.

Brigham City Temple


We went to the Brigham City temple open house yesterday with the kids. Jillian was really excited that we got to park a few blocks away so we could ride the bus to the temple grounds. We made it there and toured the temple.  It is beautiful!  They had it down to a science getting people in and out, probably because it was a Saturday and very busy.  After the tour, we walked around the grounds and took a few pictures.
 The family was not really in a picture taking mood at this point.

 Do I only get Chloe's backside in pictures?  Looks like it!





Jillian reported that her favorite part was the cookies after the tour.  I didn't expect a different answer from her.  I was surprised at how small the temple was.  I expected it to be bigger, I guess.  Still, it was very beautiful and I was so excited to take my little ones inside to see the temple!
