Trip to Texas and Ash's Temple Day!!


Me and Briley Bean!!




At the end of March my mother in law Roz and I went to Texas. We met Kindy and little Briley there to have a girl time with Kortney while Pratt was in AZ.  We shopped til we dropped, went to see a beautiful lake, saw the Dallas Texas Temple, went to the coolest two story Joann's!! Shopped in Louisiana and learned to make hair bows. Once Mom and I got to the airport we were a little stranded. Kindy's flight had been cancelled due to a blizzard and she was our tour guide! So mom and I sat at the airport til Kort got of work and she was headed our way to pick us up. Well we decided it would be easier for Kort to find us if we could get to Union Station. So we took three buses to get to our little Union Station, only to realize to late that it wasn't Union Station! Thank goodness for Mr. garmin or we would have sat there forever!

All of us at a really good restaurant in Kort's town. It was so much fun going to Texas! It is really a pretty state. I was really sad that I didn't get any pic's of the landscaping.








This is my mother in law Roz and me on the flight over there!










Kortney and me and the Dallas Texas Temple.










More of the Dallas Texas Temple.













My little sister Ashleigh is on her mission in Salt Lake City Temple Square. This is the day that she went through the Temple in Snowflake. Ash is the one in the red. We had such a wonderful day. I was able to be one of her escort through the Temple and it was such a wonderful experience. She is loving her mission and all of the great spiritual experiences that come with serving the Lord.





If any of you know anything about Snowflake you know that it is almost ALWAYS windy! Such was the case on this day. We had to hold our hair back so we could even face the camera!

Rachell!

This is Jennifer...your cousin. I got an email for some genealogy family thing that Aunt Debbie did a while back, and it had your birthday on it and your married name (which I had forgotten), so I googled you! And I found your blog! How are you? I'm so excited about your baby!
