Phoenix Temple open house

We had the amazing opportunity to walk through the Phoenix Temple before it was dedicated for use. Family and friends joined us. It was such a lovely Saturday.

It really was so nice to be able to walk through such a beautiful peaceful place as a family.

Halloween 2014

 We went as the cast from Despicable Me 2 this year. It's a favorite movie for all the kids and we had perfect numbers this year to do it. Win/Win. The following are random photos from our Ward trunk-or-treat and actual Halloween night.

Such a fun Halloween. The babies did okay. We only had to save the newbie from her big bro a few times… But it was fun getting to have a first holiday with a tiny one again. She is SO cute!

Lice. Eeewwww

The kids get picked up in a CPS van for visitation. The car seats they use in the vans get a ton of action. So lice happens. And boy did we get hit. Really just V and Kaylee, but I couldn't check my own head and was SO itchy from seeing what was going on on V's head and then super paranoid so I treated the baby as well since the girls all share a room. Jon checked me and the baby when he got home and called us clear of lice.

lice head wrapsI spent 2 hours delousing Kaylee and 6 on V. Holy freaking cow! That was a disgusting job. We did a home treatment until Jon was able to get home with a chemical treatment, and then Jon bought this electric lice comb that zaps dead anything left. I LOVE that comb. We triple killed the lice because I just needed to kill them dead, because EEEEWWWWWWW!
