All Together in the Temple

A while back, we went to the St. George Temple grounds and got our pictures taken as a family (Thanks Caralee!) It was the first time since Baby Joy was born that we had real pictures taken. Below is a sampling:
Whether I like it or not, there will come a time when I will have to own a gun so that I can clean it when boys come to pick up my daughters for dates...

She is SO CUTE!

This picture turned out really good. These three boys are a huge handful...don't let the smiles fool you for a second!


This one was my favorite...while we were waiting for the kids to cooperate, I had to kiss LeAnn for like 3 minutes straight! It was awesome! (By the way, I proposed to her by this tree...about 5 kids ago...)



Our vision as a family is to someday be "All Together in the Temple. We visit the grounds often and talk to our kids of its importance for each of them and for our family. I look forward to the day when they will all be grown, working on families of their own, and we can make the vision a reality. For now, we do our best to keep them pointed in the right direction so that our vision will be more than a wish...we work to make it a reality every day.

Twenty years from now, we hope to be all together in the Temple.

We soooooo have to get together now that I live close again. JOY IS SOOOOOO CUTE. I can't believe how big all of your kids are getting, especially Tait. I was thinking how I miss you as a neighbor. Good times! Take care and we will have to get together soon, once we all get better!
