The one with the Payson Temple Open House.

Luca and I met Sara and the boys over at Chars before we headed to the temple. 

Luca has apparently graduated to following commands for pictures, whenever he feels like it of course, but it has been helpful! 

He loves to stand in our front yard and wave to everyone who passes. He did the same while we waited to Nikolai to finish heading before heading in. 

Grant was thrilled that he finally could go in! I was so excited to take Luca in, it got stressful after having to take all the kids out of the movie clip you watch before going in, but we powered through. 

Fits were had, yells and wiggly boys were hard to control, but as soon as we were inside the temple you could feel a difference. Even though the boys are small they knew they were somewhere special. I love that we get to go to so many open houses. 

Then we went to santaquin to try out the Ice cream barn, it was yum, the boys approved but I loved the orchard and clouds the best. 

Rain makes everything so beautiful!! 

After we got home, Luca crashed out halfway there, he begged to ride in the stroller, so I pushed him around before the rain came, probably 4 minutes later. 

The One With a Stuck Cop.

I finally got over to Sheri's to finish up her bedroom set. They painted them white and all I did was glaze it. 

The headboard turned out amazing and just what we wanted. The dresser was a different story which is why there is not picture. It still turned out fine, but not what we expected. White touch ups will happen I'm sure. 

It has been such beautiful weather lately. Dark clouds and rain. And 60 degrees. Please please let it stay. My windows are open and sweaters are out. 

Luca loves to shower with Jose--and this is how he gets my attention if he wants it. 

He's a nut case. And my favorite but case. 

Jose wanted to go to the circus and got us tickets for Saturday morning. This was the view as we drove down into down town. 

It had rained a ton the night before so it was all muddy and wet. On our way down we saw a cop stuck in the mud, with another cop stopped to attempt to help him out. So we stopped and Jose got out to try to help too. 

After we stopped three other people stopped to help too. That was a nice sight. There are good people in the world. 

One of the guys that stopped drove a semi so he had a bunch of tools. They tried to chain it up to pull it, but the truck couldn't get close enough so that didn't work out. 

They tried everything they could, but nothing worked. He was just stuck too deep. The tires were almost a foot in mud. So they called to have a sheriff with chains come and pull him out. 

We headed back off to the circus, and Luca slept through all the excitement.
