Temple Open House
Our temple has been closed for two years so we were very ready to have it reopen. We got to participate in the Open House in several different ways.
Josh and I got to help with parking.


 We went through the open house several times as a family.

 We had a bit of fun on the busses on the way to the temple from the parking lot we were assigned.




Brayden also got to be part of the Youth Cultural Celebration. It was held in Pocatello in the Holt Arena. We were able to go down to see it. We couldn't see Brayden without using the binoculars though.








We are so thankful that we now have our temple back up and operating.
Memorial Day

We have seriously been so busy that it has been hard to keep up the blog. Obviously by now you have figured out we are playing catch up from the last few months and that this mom loves to take pictures!
For memorial Day Josh helped cook at Bish's RV so I took the kids to the park. The flag display was set up, there were planes flying over, and the kids played in the creek to stay cool.












We are thankful for the freedoms we enjoy because of the men and women who have given their lives.

Brayden & Band
Brayden has found his niche in life. He loves being in band and playing saxophone. At the end of the school year he had his final concert in 7th grade and we enjoyed it.





 All the middle school band groups joined the high school band to play a number. Within the piece of music they played cannons went off and scared the audience. It was a fantastic way to bring the two schools together.
We are excited to see him progress in band this next year.

Easter
Easter was fun this year. We went to a few local egg hunts.

 We did the Bunny hunt downtown and found out a good friend of ours was the Easter Bunny. We had a good laugh when we found out.
 Egg coloring at Grandma's with cousins.

 Each of the kids entered a coloring contest and they picked Kaytlin's picture for her age group and won this basket.
 Easter Bunny came to our house and brought some goodies...
 including their new church clothes.



Until Next year!
