A very busy July!

Jan holding Arlee and Eli the day before the 4th of July. Eli definitely weighs more than Arlee. I think he passed her up when he was 2 months old and she was 5 months old!

Last week, I met DeAnn, Mason, and Justin in Holbrook at Grandma and Grandpa Roger's house. These kids had fun playing together, making messes together, and getting cleaned up together. It's pretty crazy when you put 3 two year olds together in one small house with a LOT of sewing stuff. This is Mason, Joy, Lucy, and Justin in Grandpa's new tub.
Eli is the cutest, smileyest little boy you've ever seen. He gave his first grunty little laugh at in Holbrook when I was playing with him at Grandma's house.


These pics of the temple aren't that great, but here it is. The steeple you see is from the chapel they are building next to the temple. The walls are big stone slabs that are being trucked in. Half of the bottom level of the temple has the stone facing up. I've heard that the temple is ahead of schedule due to the lack of rain we've had here.






Finally, this is what our house looks like. The framing's up and the trusses should be up by the end of this week. We finished picking out everything, which is a very tedious job. I sure hope it turns out okay.

That's fun to see the progress on the building of everything. Eli is looking cute and healthy!

We're so excited! I love living in Central because we get to see the progress pretty much every day!
