Gila Temple

Last weekend, I was so grateful we were able to get away to go to the Gila Valley Temple open house. We went up Friday evening and made it to the Spring Sing with Janae and Julianne; Matt was in the choir. I love going to those, they always do such a great job. Janae and Matt let us stay in their little home and gave us their bedroom; they slept in the living room. We fell in love with their home. It was just so cute and cozy and homey. We stayed up with them and Julianne and Connor (friend living with Uncle Wick and Aunt Lynn) playing Dominion and eating chips and salsa. The next morning, we woke up to a hot breakfast Matt made; waffles, hashbrowns, eggs, strawberries. It was so good and nice of them to do that. Thank you Janae and Matt, we had so much fun! Kade was crying and really did not want to leave their house. Later that morning we went to the open house. It was so beautiful, the chandeliers were amazing. I'm so glad we took the time to go. I was amazed at how well the kids did. When Kade saw the chandelier in the Celestial room he called it a Christmas tree because of the way it's big at the bottom and then comes to a point. It was cute. Bryson, of course, loved looking at the water in the baptismal font. When Kade first saw the temple he first pointed out Angel "Boroni"! He loves pointing him out, and no matter how hard we try, we can't get him to say Moroni. The "M" words I can think of right now is "Boroni, Byreel, and Balaya."
