Los Angeles Temple

Maryn and Blake had the opportunity to do Temple baptisms on the Wednesday of spring break.  I followed them down there a couple of hours later.  I have never really taken the little kids around the temple grounds, so I thought this would be a good time to do that.  They also just recently reopened the Visitor's Center, so we went to have a look.  Here are some pictures of that trip. 
Usually the Christus Statue has a darker background, so it is funny to see it so light.  Here are my 6 at His feet. 

 The story behind this picture is that when my parents were taking their wedding pictures, my parents took a picture on this exact spot with my dad in front and my mom in the back peeking out from behind.  Justin and I took the exact same picture the day we were married.  I thought it would be fun to have a third generation do the same pose. 
 Good looking bunch.
 I so seldom carry my camera anymore.  I was glad to have it this day.  I just wish the boys were not so scruffy looking. You have to do a silly face picture every now and again.
 She is a beauty. She is talented. She is 15!  I can't believe how the time flies.
 The oldest of my handsome boys.  He is 13, and good.
 Brady is my happy helpful one.  He is just about 10.  The hair is out of control right now because the stake musical wants the boys to have longer hair.  I cannot wait to cut it!!
 My sweet boy is almost 8!   He gets to be baptized soon. 
 What you cannot see is that his shirt says "Major Trouble", this is my future president of something, anything he can be in charge of.  He is a charmer.  A favorite among the staff at school.
Here is our whirlwind.  She is a beauty as well.  She has her daddy wrapped around her finger.  Mom gets to be the bad guy.
