The First Few Days...

Ok, well, I didn't take any pictures of the actual plane ride, but here is one of Jane reading her new book for the flight. She loves her princesses!
We flew from Melbourne to Atlanta and then to Salt Lake. Once in Salt Lake we waited for Kevin to get in from Pheonix. Jane enjoyed the little play place at the Salt Lake airport. She dropped all the toys though, when I said, "Daddy is here, let's go get him!"




Thursday we relaxed, ran errands, and Kevin and I took a little time and went to the Jordan River Temple. It was very nice and great that we still could make it to the temple together in May, even though he is away for business. Thursday evening we all went to the Groom's dinner at the Joseph Smith Memorial Building. Kevin, Jane and I rode Trax in. She was so excited to ride the train and very upset when we finally got off and it left without her. She stood there and kept touching her chest as if to say, "You forgot me, I want to ride, you forgot me!"

Friday was Trista's wedding ceremony. They were sealed in the Salt Lake Temple. It was a wonderful ceremony and I learned a lot. So very peaceful in the temple. Outside, I have never seen the grounds look so beautiful. Jane loves to smell flowers, so we took some time, and many pictures of her doing just that.



Yes, that is my belly in the background. I know, I know, I don't look 8 months pregnant.


She had to bend down really low to smell those ones!


She looked so happy to smell and touch the flowers

She dropped a couple petals into the flower

You are both so beautiful and I love all the "smelling flowers" pictures! So sweet. Morgan is definitely missing Cody. Whenever I say Daddy he points to the door and makes faces like "where is he? is he coming soon?" Yesterday he finally signed "Daddy" and looked longingly at the door...it almost broke me heart. Daddy's should always stay home! But maybe their absence is what helps make them so exciting:)

Yes, Daddy's should stay home, but it is so exciting when they do come home. Mom becomes old hat! Thanks for the compliments!
