Family Home Evening



This last Monday, we went a few other families in our ward to the temple visitor's center for family home evening. (Great idea, Jaimee!)





While we were waiting for the other families to arrive, Paisley was playing on the railing on the stairs. Somehow, I think she was trying to flip over, she slipped and smacked the back of her head on a concrete stair. She went crying to Dave and I rushed over. A couple seconds later, her eyes rolled back in her head and she passed out. Her arms were out stiff in front of her. I started to panic a bit, as is typical for me. But, luckily, my friend, Jaimee, told me to calm down, that she is fine. She was out for about 10-15 seconds, but that felt like an ETERNITY! She came to and was okay. She was very pale for a while, but okay. That sure was a scary experience!

Once everyone got there, we went in to watch a movie and then on to look at the Christus statue.


All the kids


I like this one with the kids touching and looking at the Christus (except Paisley who is in constant "pose mode"! :)

Afterwards we went out and walked around the grounds. The grass is so green, the flowers so colorful and beautiful. I just know that the Lord has some had in how beautiful the temple's surroundings are!



I was able to snap some really nice pictures of Easton and Paisley.






Avery was being her busy-body little self, and was finally able to get a cute one of her right before we left.



We had a really great night with some good friends! It was really peaceful walking around the temple, even with 14 kids! :) Thanks for the fun night, everyone!

I'm glad you had lots of fun! I wish we could have made it with you. I'm glad Paisley is okay. I'm sure she got a good goose egg.
