Food

We had a family pizza night the other day. We each made our own personal sized pizzas. The kids were pretty excited about the idea of putting whatever they wanted on it. Then we spread out a blanket on the living room floor and ate our pizzas while we watched a movie. Fun treat. Ben is a fruit LOVER. He loves almost all kinds of fruits (he's not a huge fan of oranges or grapefruits, but most everything else he will take in a second). He will ask me at least three times a day if he can have an apple or pear or grapes. Usually I say "yes" because there aren't too many things better to snack on.

Temple

Well, actually it was the temple (even better, right?). On Saturday we took a LONG day trip up to Oakland to go to our good friend, Sid's wedding to his perfect new bride, Michelle. Sid and Dad have been good friends since their freshman year at BYU, and then we all became friends when we were in the same ward (when Dad and I started dating). It was also great to see so many of the Crusaders (that's what they called each other at BYU). While Dad was in the temple for the sealing I was out with the kiddos. We walked around the beautiful temple grounds (the kids loved the water and fountains) and then we wandered around in the Visitor Center. I don't think the kids have ever been in one of those before. They enjoyed looking at the statues of the Savior inside.
