FOOTBALL

I'm talking about a game that was even BETTER than the BYU vs. Oklahoma game.

That's right, my nephew Brady's big football game. He plays on a Lehi city team for 1st and 2nd graders. It's TACKLE with full pads and gear! It's probably the cutest thing ever to watch. :) And what's even better...Brady made two tackles and they won the game! We had a good time cheering them on to victory.My parents were here for the long Labor Day weekend, so thy got to see Brady in action too.Jared and Crew discussing the game. We had a fun afternoon at Grandma's house barbecuing some burgers and playing with water balloons. That night the guys headed to the Robbins house to watch the INCREDIBLE BYU game, while the girls (including the babies) stayed at Grandma's and watched the Hannah Montana movie (Avery's choice) which I actually loved! We'd click over to the BYU game once in a while to check in on the score. It was a fun girl's night!

Yesterday (Sunday) was the temple tour. We went with my parents, niece Rhiannon and nephew Brendan, and Grandma for a nice drive over the mountain to the Draper temple, which we hadn't seen yet. It was gorgeous and had a beautiful view of the valley.
Gracie liked to walk around the temple grounds with her favorite little babysitter, Rhiannon. From Draper, we drove past the Jordan temple and on to the Oquirrh mountain temple, which was just dedicated last week. The sun was just setting when we drove up, it was gorgeous. Yesterday we saw six temples in one day, and within just a half an hour. Amazing!

That is so awesome that you got to see so many temples in such a short amount of time. Some people would die for that chance. What a peaceful time. How fun!

It was a fun day. Thanks for going with us. Rhiannon and Brendan like to be with Gracie (and her parents) so much. We are blessed to be around so many temples.
