First Excursion

Our temporary housing is only ten minutes from the Seattle Temple.  We waited for a sunny day last week, bundled up, and took advantage of the close proximity.  Here are some fun pictures:
In other news, my kids apparently believe that the best way to acclimate to the cold is by getting Colds.  All three of them have runny noses and coughs.  Thus far, Aubree's escaped with the least amount of symptoms.  Bryce is the worst (though he finds particular pleasure in getting himself "tissue" [large amounts of toilet paper]), and Thane is the most pitiful - too congested to sleep or eat well.  
 I've heard from many people that this is a common reaction to a major change in climate.  Hopefully they all recover quickly, especially since we haven't found a pediatrician here yet!

Those colds do not sound fun. Still, I hope you have a happy birthday!

Oh yes, Happy Birthday!

I hope that everyone feels better soon.

Having a temple so close is really wonderful. It makes it so much easier to go regularly. (Ours is only 8 minutes away, and I am really grateful!)

Beautiful pictures. Sorry to hear the kids are sick. Hopefully they'll be over it quickly!
