The Death of a Deer

So we came home a couple of weeks ago to a dead deer under the mailbox. Someone hit it with their car and then thought that our mailbox looked like the ideal final resting spot for Bambi. It only took Utah Wildlife 5 days to come and pick it up. By then a really attractive trail of blood was oozing from its nose. There was also some weird looking pink stuff that showed up nearby as well. We assume that it was the breeding area for the maggots. Why do my blog posts seem so gory sometimes?

FHE at Temple Square

We had family night at Temple Square a couple of weeks ago. It was fantastic. The weather was perfect and no one was there. We felt like we had the place to ourselves. The kids had a blast and have been asking to go back.

Of course the water was the most exciting part of the night.

The night ended with the kids trying to get into the temple. They all just about bloodied their knuckles knocking on the door hoping someone would open the door.

Meal Time

I don't know why but our kids lose their minds at meal time. It doesn't matter if it is breakfast, lunch or dinner, they just fight us to the death to finish their food (or even start eating). A few nights ago was no different. Joe was just not willing to eat. We were begging him to just take a few bites. He was whining like he does so well when all of the sudden it got real quiet. It took us a couple minutes to notice but Joe fell asleep right over his plate!
