PRESCHOOL!


My little baby has started Preschool! His first day was Sept 20, 2013. He goes to Northlake Elementary for 4 days a week and two hours each day.


I only teared up a little when I dropped him off. :) How do they get so big so quick?!

His teacher is Mrs. Christensen and she is phenomenal!  He has loved every minute of it.


On his first day they did playdough and had a snack and did computers and played outside.

Little Mol says she misses Carer every day while he's at school. So do I!

I'm not the waffle maker at our house but I attempted waffles and bacon for his first day of school breakfast. He sure was excited!

An afternoon on Temple Square

We spent one Sunday afternoon walking around temple square. The only time we usually go is when its 15 degrees out and the Christmas lights are up. We walk as quickly as we can through all the lights trying to keep kids happy and warm as we bump past the millions of others who are doing the same. Then we jet to our cars and get the closest hot chocolate we can find. Sound familiar?

Well this trip was nothing like that. I HIGHLY reccomend vistiting on a Sunday summer afternoon. It was so quiet and peaceful. The flowers were in full bloom and the small crowds of people were talking quietly gazing at the temple. You could REALLY feel you were on sacred ground.

As I walked with Carter he said mom will you hug me and take a picture? I think he could feel something special. I hope so anyway!


The kids loved all the fountains and pretty flowers.

Not sure whats happening here, but it made me laugh.

As we stood and looked into this reflection pond, Mollie brought tears to my eyes as she said, "Mom I'm going to be married in the temple." Carter soon chimed in saying the same thing. I love that they know the importance of the temple already. In all that I do wrong as a Mom, maybe I'm doing a few things right.

And I truly hope with all of my heart they will both be sealed there some day.
