Jordan River and Draper Temples (baptisms with Douglas; message for Grandma and Grandpa) / Layth turns one (month)

 Douglas and I visited the Jordan River and Draper temples this week.

We happened to be at the Jordan River Temple on the wedding anniversary of Douglas's Grandma and Grandpa Coombs. They married in the Jordan River Temple.

We visited the Draper Temple the same day.

One-month-old Layth asleep with his hands up by his head . . . 

. . . like his Dad used to do many years ago.

Curling lesson with Douglas

 Douglas and I attended a two-hour curling lesson tonight at the Weber County Ice Sheet in Ogden. It was so fun!

We purchased "Ogden Curling Club" hoodies and Douglas is thinking about joining the curling league this fall.

Poker / visiting Grandpa Ogden (Creamies!) / Utah Grizzlies hockey / more baby Layth / baptisms at the Ogden Temple / more baby Layth / Diana's crazy creature look

 

Douglas taught us how to play poker. The next day, while driving to Grandpa Ogden's home, we listened to President Hinckley's 2005 talk about gambling. 😀

Sara and I went on a walk up Quail Valley Drive near Grandpa's house.

The sun reflecting off Utah Lake was amazing.

Grandpa passed out Creamies to all the grandkids.

Taylor and Dan invited us to attend one of the Utah Grizzlies hockey team's final games.

Penny and Layth

I finally got him to fall asleep on me in this position.

Douglas and I went to do baptisms for the dead at the Ogden Temple. Two Ogdens at the Ogden Temple.

This is Douglas 11 years ago as a baby at the Ogden Temple.

Take me out to the ball game!

Douglas loves his little brother.

Penny loves her little brother.

"He's tickling my armpit!"

I'm not sure what to call this creature. 😂 Diana makes me laugh.

Duck in the temple fountain; Diana's new bike; more baby photos

 I took Douglas this morning to join Lizzie and Sara and some of their kids for baptisms for the dead at the Oquirrh Mountain Temple.

Lizzie, Gideon, Oskar, Jesper, Maxwell, Douglas, Paggy, Denali, Sara, Daniel

Sara volunteered to wait outside with Gideon, Denali, and Paggy while the rest of us were inside.

We all enjoyed the gorgeous flowers surrounding the temple.

When we came out of the temple, we found this duck relaxing in the temple fountain.

Diana picked out a new bike for her birthday.

I love the cute noises and movements Layth makes whenever he is waking up.
