What a Weekend

We had such a great weekend! On Friday evening we went to the Idaho Falls Temple open house. It was very special sharing our hometown temple with my sons. They loved being able to see the inside of the temple that we see so often from the outside. We went out for ice cream with Grandma and Grandpa Mennear afterwards and went to bed entirely too late. 

The next morning the kids woke up earlier than I had hoped. They were a bit cranky and I figured we had two options--either stay home and endure the madness or get out and do something fun. We decided on the latter. We took the kids to Bear World and enjoyed a morning outside among the bears and a thousand other people. My favorite memory was riding on the spinning bears. Our whole family loaded in a bear and Scott spun us faster than I would have liked...but we laughed and laughed. Oh, how we laughed. It was awesome! 

The rest of the day was spent outside doing work and playing hard. Sleep was sparse, but the fun and joy was abundant. It was a great weekend!!
