For some reason, when Toph is away, every task seems like I’ve accomplished a mountain. Knowing he’s not going to be coming home in the evening to help with the kiddos, makes me appreciate him so much more.
Here are a few of our crazy adventures:
Sunday, we went to the temple grounds, and walked around and enjoyed the beauty!
I thought it would be fun to get a picture of all the kids infront of the temple. They had different idea. Look at all their faces: Ha! Ha!
25 pictures later, and not much better: Ha!ha!
We celebrated 5 years in the bishopric by getting shakes at the Bishop’s restaurant.
We missed Toph though:
The boys worked really hard and scrubbed, and vacuumed and deep cleaned out Toph’s car for him. They wanted it to be a surprise, and were so, so, excited about doing it.
They found all sorts of treasures inside:
Power washing:
afterwords we got out the popsicles, and the bubbles. To say that was the highlight is an understatement…
Here are some cute videos too:
Lorelei loves this fuzzy robe of mine, and often wants me to put it on and cuddle her…
Lorelei also thought it was funny to jump in the tub, multiple times during the day, while her clothes were still on…. that got old pretty quickly. (for me at least, apparently, not for her!)
And we sewed and put up the ‘sails’ on the tree house, so the kids could pretend they were on a ship. so fun.
And with all of those adventures, plus more, we made it thru FIVE days alone! 🙂
