Oklahoma Temple

 Yes that is round little me.  I don't have any flattering church clothes to wear, in truth, I dress for comfort these days!!  Nathaniel looks soooooo handsome!

Nathaniel took me on a relaxing trip to the temple!  A member in the ward watched the boys on Friday night and Saturday so that we could go down and stay in a hotel then attend the temple the next morning.  The Oklahoma temple is about 4 1/2 hours away and is one of the smaller temples, but it is always beautiful to see these spiritual Houses of the Lord.  I guess the trip started out very stressful with strong winds the entire drive and just before we left home, Nathaniel found out that he was missing a few things for his application for licensure in Washington.  He took care of what he could, now hopefully it all comes together in a timely manner.  Well, once we got to the hotel we were able to relax and not worry about getting up every minute for one child or the other.  It was nice to only worry about getting myself ready in the morning instead of four little boys!  The temple was a great experience where we both felt the peaceful influence of the spirit.  Our group was tiny with only five of us ladies and seven men, we thought for a 9:00 session on Saturday it would have a bit more.  Anyway, I am glad we were able to attend the temple before this baby comes and especially at this time in our lives when we need the comfort of the Spirit.
