The Zoo!

Well, kind of. Our good friends the Giani's invited us to go to the Bonnie Springs petting zoo two weeks ago. We had a great time!

Jeremy preferred showing Isis the caged animals.

Feeding the goat

Isis loved the ferrets.

Trying to get the peacock to call back to her. There were a lot wandering around.

The pig was a little too gross to let him eat right out of her hand.

"Uncle" Sal treated Isis to her first pony ride. (She doesn't look happy in this picture but she was really having a good time.) Thanks Sal!!

Ride 'em cowgirl.

I love this picture with Isis and her new best buddy, Little Sal. :)

Sal insisted on holding Isis' hand and she didn't seem to mind this time.

Thanks for the invitation Sal and JoEllen! We had a lot of fun!!

Temple Trip

Three weekends ago we took some advice from General Conference (Elder Stevenson's talk Sunday afternoon) and took Isis to go see the temple. We had her "touch the temple so it could touch [her]."

It was a nice day and we enjoyed strolling around the temple grounds.

It was neat being there together as a family... and at the same temple Jeremy and I were sealed in almost 5 years ago. :)

This picture captures well what I hope to teach Isis (and our other childrend): to always be looking toward the temple.
What a blessing to have the temple so close!
