Youth Temple Trip

On Friday, there was a youth temple trip.  It was tons of fun, and very refreshing to go to the temple after all the excitement of the summer.  Though I must say, it's a very long drive to the D.C. temple, and I can't wait for the Philadelphia temple to be done!

 The Young Women.

John and Miguel, the only priests their.

I love to go to the temple, and I remember when I was in primary singing "I Love to See the Temple".  I can't wait until December when we have our next Youth Temple Trip. :)

Saturday was Mom's Birthday, so to celebrate the fact we went to Valley Forge Park to sing to Mom and eat dessert.  Shana fancified one of the picnic tables, and Mimi made amazing creamsicle cupcakes with cream cheese icing.

Mommy!

 These kids are so cute!

 Elliot is growing up so fast!

 CHEESE!!!

Afterwords we had dinner at the house, but I didn't get any pictures (sad day sniff*).

Happy Birthday Mom!!

Beach Trip

This is a little belated, but as they say, better late than never.

Before Jake and Chels left, Jacob, Chelsey, Abby, John and me went to Ocean City.  We had tons of fun playing in the water, walking on the boardwalk, and eating fried oreos and funnel cake.

The crew!

The beach wasn't too crowded, fortunately.

 "What are you looking at?!"

The LONG trek back to the car.

Unfortunately, I didn't get any more pictures, but I hope you enjoyed!
