I can't believe it but we survived June! What a busy but fun month! With dance rehearsals, the recital, the temple open house, the big quarterly Enrichment meeting, never ending yard work, Ian's birthday, kindergarten testing, kindergarten field trip, the teddy bear picnic, and of course, the last days of school for Emma and Sophia, we've been a little busy. But I'm happy to report, we survived! And now on to summer!
The first week in June, Emma and Sophia had their dance recital, "The Games People Play". It was held at the Rose Wagner Theater, in downtown Salt Lake. Emma and Sophia's class danced the Chess Dance, where they got to be chess pieces. We survived several late night rehearsals, and it was all worth the stress. They were fantastic!

The first Saturday in June, we attended the Oquirrh Mountain Temple Open House. We were able to get tickets for our entire family and it was a neat experience to be there with everyone. I think the kids were amazed that they were able to go inside a "real" temple and had many questions throughout the tour. They loved the celestial room, with it's enormous chandelier. But the best moment was in the sealing room, when they were able to look in the two mirrors and "see" the meaning of eternity. Sophia's big eyes were priceless! It was a wonderful day to share with the people we love!

So great to hear about your adventures! Yes, your girls did so well at the concert! I was so amazed at all of the dancers. I am glad your girls had such a great experience, Adrianna did too. Your yard looks so amazing! Great job!
How cute, the girls in their costumes. Oh and in the temple pictures, you look so pretty. I'm loving the no glasses look. Now if only you would let me borrow your glasses. Man I wish I had to wear them. :)
Those are some pretty cool costumes. We got to go to the Draper open house, it was so beautiful. We didn't get tickets for this one. It looks awesome. I'm glad you survived June. Hey maybe once school is back in or something we can get together? Or maybe before school starts, I want to meet your kids.
Glad to hear the open house was a success! We hope to visit again next summer...
