We Love to See the Temple!

As part of our nightly routine, we sing songs and say prayers with the girls. Since we have moved to Rexburg Evelyn wants to sing "I Love to See the Temple" every night! We are so fortunate to live so very close to a temple. On any errand that we run here in Rexburg we can see it.
One of our favorite things to do on a Sunday evening is take our children to this special place.
This was taken a few weeks ago.
This one was taken tonight. Evelyn found the perfect place and told me I needed to take her picture.
Hannah enjoys playing peek-a-boo through the pillars.



Tonight Nicole and Jon joined us. It was so fun to be there with them. (By the by, we thought of Nellie the whole time, we missed having her with us, but didn't want to steal her from her roomates and friends.) Here Hannah would say "Cole! 'Mon! " (Nicole, come on!) and take her hand and walk her in a little circle.

Jon making sure Evelyn didn't fall.



The temple reminds the girls how much they really do love each other.

Evelyn loves to sing church songs at the temple...

...and get in touch with her premortal gifts, like dancing.

Hannah likes to get in touch with her inner canine. Sometimes she just decides to be a dog.

Thanks for sharing. Sure do miss the Temple being that close. Hazel used to like me singing that song every time we drove by.

Wyeths! Hey, it's been a long time and I'm not sure if you remember us...Ben was Luke's RA SOOO long ago and then we were in the same married ward. Anyway, we found you through a friend's blog and wanted to see how everything is going!? Looks like you are back in Rexburg..how is that wonderful place? ;) We sure miss it and can't wait to get back to Idaho some day soon! Take care! Luke and Katie Kirkham

I miss having a temple close by. Evelyn's green dress is gorgamus (translation: I like it a lot)! Tell Hannah bow wow, and a woof, woof (she'll know what that means).

So it turns out I DIDN'T leave a comment like I thought I did. =Þ

Since we go to church next door to the temple again, we should take Erin up there too! I haven't gotten a chance yet, but it would be a really good idea.
