Planting Flowers

This past Wednesday, our anniversary, we went up to the Temple and Mormon Trail Center for our annual flower planting activity with the Youth. (As I've been working in Young Women's for three years now, this is now our third year of planting.) It was a beautiful night and, considering we were up waaayyyy past our bedtime, the kids did really well.



Last year, Christian was my helper while Cubby took Emily and Kari into the trail center to look at the pioneer stuff. This year, though, Emily was much more into it and she and Christian honestly did more planting then some of the youth! They've been planting flowers with me at home and so they knew just what to do!



After the whole planting novelty wore off, we got in just a quick photo session before any melt-downs occurred!

We really like giving service at the temple...especially in such a fun way!

Kathleen! your family is so beautiful! i love that little Kari--she has totally grown up all of a sudden. Is that just how it goes with the 3rd? Whew!

Sounds fun. Berky was helping me plant today...but mostly he was just waving the spade around and laughing at the hose.
