Tuesday night Jesus and I went to Deseret industries(correction-Distribution center, thanks Mom) and bought everything we needed for the temple that we didnt already have. Then we went next door to Deseret book and bought bags to carry everything in and we ran into Mindy Sergeant and talked to her for awhile. When we left I was so excited because I felt so much closer to the temple. When we got home we realized that we needed to hem the pants that Jesús bought if we wanted to go to the temple on Thursday like we planned. Well I have never hemmed pants before so I was kind of guessing how to do it. Well when Shelley and I couldnt figure out how to get her sewing machine to work I decided to turn to our very good friend Ann Anderson. I called her the next morning and she said she would love to help. So Patrick and I headed over to her condo in Orem. It was awesome to see her and to visit with her for like 4 hours. We talked about everything and I really missed that. I wish she would move back to Bakersfield. I am also excited because she said she would be my birthing coach. She is going to come to Bakersfield and help me learn to deal the pain of having a baby which is so good because I am nervous about having a VBAC. Sarah came over too and we all sat and talked forever. Well after Patrick and I left we went back to the Moreno's and Jesús and I got ready to go to the temple. We laid Patrick down for a nap and Jesús and his parents and his brother Sebastian and I went to Ruby River where Sebastian works and we all had lunch. All I can say is "Good food!" After lunch Jesús and I drove to American Fork and went to the Timponogos temple to do a session. I have always wanted to go inside that temple because it is so beautiful outside. It was even more amazing inside.
THE 4TH OF JULY
In the morning we decided to go to the Parade in Provo because we heard it was really fun and Jesús's brother was marching in it. It took us a long time to find parking but we finally did and we parked pretty close to Sara's old apartment which she was sitting out in front of. She drove down the night before and played games with us at the Moreno's. Well we werent able to sit next to her at the parade but we still had a good time.
Here is Gabe playing with the sparklers. He eventually was trying to singe his let hair off.
Well here is a picture of the family at breakfast, but I'm not sure why Becca wouldnt smile. Boo Becca!!!!
We did get a picture of the whole family except Roxanna and Diego in Texas and Roseamber in Bakersfield before we left
Whenever we drive past Parowan my mom always tells us to put our hands over our hearts because that is where Mom was born, so for this trip, I took a picture.
Patrick spent some of the trip watching Finding Nemo on my Ipod. It kept him pretty occupied for while.
Sorry honey, Deseret Industries doesn't sell temple stuff. You meant Distribution Center I'm sure.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a great time...boo hoo! I'm glad you're home. And Jesus, Marilyn Monroe did not have sparklers!
