I love being so close to a temple that we can take the girls there on a regular basis. Although Kallie isn't old enough yet to appreciate where we are, walking around the temple grounds is one of Julie's favorite things to do. Here is our latest outing there from the weekend. Got to love warm-weather days, which makes our temple walks much more enjoyable

On a totally different subject, lately Julie has been talking non-stop about seeing her Great-Grandpa Jenkins. Here's a little background: 18 months ago Arek's mom and aunts threw Grandpa Jenkins a 90th birthday party, and ever since then the invite has stayed on our fridge - it has a really cool old photo of Grandpa Jenkins from when he was a young man. Recently Julie has loved looking at the photo, and when we told her it was her Great-Grandpa Jenkins she insisted that we visit him. So one Monday evening while I went to a friend's bridal shower, Arek took the girls over to see his grandparents. Julie was a little hestitant at first - Grandpa Jenkins looks a LITTLE different now than he did in the 60+ year old photo.
But after some coaxing (and suckers) Julie had a great time visiting with her great grandparents.

| It's amazing to me how big Kallie looks when wearing jeans and a t-shirt - how did my baby girl get so big so fast? Also, I'm loving doing two water-spout ponies in her hair instead of just one |
I love to see your temple pictures. It makes me happy that Julie loves the temple so much!
ReplyDeleteLove the two water spout ponies in Kallie's hair, she is adorable!
tami!!!! I am so glad that you found my blog and for your sweet comments! I just started to read through your blog and it is so fun to stay updated! I can't believe how big Julie has gotten and now you have another sweet addition that is definitely not new! We miss our time in Logan, but feel so grateful for all of the great people we were able to meet there!
ReplyDeleteYour kids are like "little Tamis". I love it!
ReplyDeleteThat is such a great thing to live near a temple and be able to make it a part of your girls' lives even before they are older and ready to go inside.
