Temple Square and Cousins

In January, we got to see some of our Fowles side cousins who were in Utah for a couple of days.  We met up with them at Temple Square and walked around, even though it was FREEZING outside!  The kids had fun.  After walking around Temple Square and spending time inside the Visitor's Centers, we also went to the children's section of the Church History Museum.

Pretty Hair

I am usually rather lacking in creativity when it comes to doing Eliza's hair.  Plus, I don't have the skills, can't even do a French braid!  Well, I did some French braids in her hair this past summer but it was purely an accident because I've tried many times since and can't seem to replicate it.  Anyway, I was pretty proud of her hair for church a few Sundays ago.  The best part was how her hair looked the next day, all frizzy and very full.  We thin-haired folks need all the help we can get!

Tubing

We haven't had a lot of snow this winter so far,  unlike last year where there was constant snow on the ground and it seemed like it was snowing every other day.  So when we had a decent storm blow through the 7th of January, we took full advantage of it and went tubing.  Corey was home that day, so that made it extra fun.

Jonah did not like his snowsuit.  He has quite a long body and short little legs and it was just the wrong proportions for him.  This was his only time wearing it.  He will probably not wear it again, so if anybody needs a size 12M snowsuit, let me know!

Poor Eliza wearing her older brother's hand-me-down snow gear.  She sure had fun tubing though!

Westley.  Not sure what the look on his face is about.

Travis was having a blast.

I did not get any pictures of Caleb, which is too bad because he was sailing down the hill on his stomach like a penguin and skipping the tube altogether.  We went home and had some hot tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches for lunch, the perfect winter day out!

Just had to share the cuteness!
