A HOLE IN ONE!

This was just the "HOLE" to a s' marvelous day!  I have been wanting to build a fire pit in the backyard, and have had a ton of ideas on what to do, then the other night as I was going to bed I thought of a barrel...that would be perfect!  So the next morning I called dad up and ask if he would bring one, well a half of one up so I can build my masterpiece....I hope!   We left at 6AM with Adrienne, Braden, and Edward still sleeping.  Adrienne would be leaving to work at 10:30 and that would leave Braden and Edward home alone!  Was a worried....maybe a little, however I knew no matter what happened Braden would take care of Edward and the 2 of them would be OK.  Braden got his pool out and put it at the end of the slide and Edward had a blast!  When Adrienne got home they were ready to come in the house, so Adrienne gave him a bath and had him all cleaned up and ready for bed when we got home!

Oliver and Paul after attending the Twin Falls Temple on June 2nd  2012!  I was so amazed how this day came together.  Wednesday, before Oliver had even met with the Stake Pres, I decided we should plan a day for him to go to the temple before Paul had to leave on the 12th of June to the MTC.  In passing Trevor mentioned that he was going to be at Wood badge all week leaving Sunday the 3rd and coming home Saturday the 9th.   WOW that left us Saturday (Oliver needed time to talk to his boss and trade shifts around)  I went ahead and called the temple to schedule a time hoping Oliver would be able to switch shifts with someone.  Well he called me Thursday and let me know that he was able to get the day off!  WOW more that I could have ask for that was so awesome!  It was just so amazing as to how things fell into place to make this possible with such short notice!



Paul went through the temple mid May so this was his second time .  His dad was not able to make it , and I forgot to take a camera when he went through the first time, so we snapped some shots of Paul and his mom.


Every time I go into the temple there is such a huge range of feeling and thoughts that are really starting to open up me.  Today I was very overwhelmed with the amount of family that was there with us...unseen but very much felt.  This was one of those joyous day where heaven was celebrating!  I was a little sad that more of my siblings weren't able to make it, but now looking back I was so blessed to be there and able to focus on the unseen family!  


We finished off the day at River Rock Grill.  One of the waitresses didn't show up today, and there was a lot of people there and the poor gal that was left to take everyone's orders and keep glasses filled did an amazing job, and the food was great, but the company was even better!  It was a HUGE HOLE IN ONE!
