I saw this idea on MerMag and it was perfect for a quick to put together craft for Holly, Greta and their friend. My girls love any opportunity to use glue, and they use it liberally! It was fun to see what each of the kids did and how their styles and personalities shone through. This craft is a great one! I would've loved to have used fancier paper, but construction paper is what we had on hand and it worked great!

I thought it had become a tradition to take photos of Conor with the girls on Father's Day, but we missed last year because that was the weekend we moved into our current apartment. Whoops! Onward right? Here's 2011 if you're interested.

Conor is a really wonderful Papa. The best choice I've ever made was to marry him.

Holly is obsessed with her letter, H. She can spot one anywhere! She can make an H with her fingers. And the other day, I found her building an H with our sandals. Greta shares this obsession with her G. She also can find a G anywhere. Greta is almost equally into H and is always on the lookout for a precious H. It's so fun to see my girls grow into learning! And with so much enthusiasm!

Yesterday, we attended our ward's temple trip. It was the best! We brought our girls along and there was babysitting in the interstake center. So kind of all those who donated their time to watch the children. And of course, our girls had so much fun with their friends! They all walked around the temple grounds, and went to the visitors' center.

Holly and Greta love the temple. We talk a lot about the temple and marriage. We sing "I love to see the temple" often. They instinctly know that the temple is something special. It's easy to teach them about the temple because they absorb it all so easily. 

I love the temple. I love attending. I made a temple attendance goal at the beginning of this year, and so far I've kept to it. I'm proud of that. Going to the temple with Conor is the best!
