A highlight of the week was Ashley, Ryan & Hudson's sealing at the Mount Timpanogas Temple. It was a beautiful ceremony and baby Hudson...oh my goodness, what a little angel. He had everyone in tears with the sweet little things he did. It was an emotional, beautiful day.
The other highlight of the week was Elle's baby blessing. Matt and Kate recently moved to Traverse Mountain and the blessing was at their home. There was alot of family there and Sean was even able to be ordained an Elder that day. Kate made sure we were all fed well afterwards and the kids were all let loose in the basement.
Since Nic and I had so many events to attend down south that weekend, we decided to just camp out at Ryan and Ashley's house! One night we were there, all the ladies went to "The Help". My goal was to finish the book before I saw the movie, but who am I kidding, I'm the slowest, most distracted reader ever. I got half way through the book. That's good enough, right? Maybe I'll finish it someday, but the movie was great! (And I never pass up an opportunity to eat movie popcorn...sick, but true).
We went to Hogle Zoo one day. Brooklyn had it on her Nana list...and Nana is a sucker for those lists ;)
The girls had a couple soccer games that week. They always have quite the cheering section. Dani is on the team too so Grandma and Grandpa love coming to the games. So have they won any games? No. Are the twins getting better? Yes...thank goodness. They are really good at stopping the ball and getting it turned around quickly. So far, Brooklyn has scored 3 goals and Camryn has scored one. Have I seen any of them? No. I've had to leave at half time the last 2 weeks because I've had to be at mutual. Sad.
There was plenty of cooking, crafting, jam making, Zumba'ing, splash padding and more that kept us busy and entertained. We may not see Nana and Papa until Christmas so we're glad we were able to have such a long, fun visit!
