This week, Luke had his interview at University of Washington, and we got a little bored sitting around the house all day, so I got the camera out and shot a couple pictures of Brooklyn and Aubrey. It was fun, but I had to stay on my toes to make sure that Brooklyn didn't squash Aubrey. She is very sweet with her, but she doesn't quite get the "soft" concept yet. Anyway, here are some highlights of our little shoot.
Tonight we had a ward social, where we got to hang out with our best friends - Rick and Jenny Runyan. We are so lucky to have such good friends with a daughter that Brooklyn can play with too. They are really cute together and love hanging out. After the ward social, we went bowling and had a really fun night!
It is a rare event when all three of us are looking at the camera in a photo, so that's partly why I love this picture so much. We were just having a relaxing night at home, when Luke grabbed the camera and took some of the best pictures of "his girls" yet. 
Brooklyn was delighted when she was able to go play in the snow while Luke was shoveling the sidewalk. She loves being outside - even if it's below 0! By the time we went back inside, she was covered in snow from head to foot, her nose was dripping like a faucet, her lips were turning blue, she could barely move her legs and she still cried when we made her come inside!!
Brooklyn found my lipstick in the diaper bag and knew exactly what to do with it. She loves playing with my makeup and knows exactly what each thing is used for! We are in for some very long pre-teen years with this one!!
We were able to attend the Rexburg Temple open house recently and we were amazed at how beautiful it is. There was such a wonderful spirit in the temple, and we know that it will bless this city tremendously. Brooklyn also loved the temple, especially the Celestial Room, in which she could not stop staring at the amazing chandelier. Afterward, we were able to take some pictures outside, and Brooklyn had a chance to play in the snow. She loves sticking her face down in it, and running as fast as she can on the icy sidewalks. As much as she loves, Aubrey hates it! We both were so miserable we could barely stand it!
