Rain or Sun

Rain or sun I decided I had no choice, but get out of the house this week!  So I thought I planned the perfect day where it wouldn't rain at the ZOO!  Oh it poured on us the whole time, hence we look like wet dogs!  But we still had a blast and managed!
Pretty sure this hippo wanted to eat us, but it was the most entertaining thing of the day so we will take it!  I always feel bad for animals.  Don't these elephants look like they're in prison?!?
Aunt Alicia was the only one prepared with an umbrella (I know i'm in Portland I should have one)!  
Love these sweet girls that help take care of my daughter.
My sis in law Jani and I were able to go to the gorgeous temple this week and even better when we got out their was blue skies!  I had to snap some pics and document that we actually saw blue skies!  It might just be one of my fav. temples now. So many trees around it that you can't even get a shot of the temple from the front cuz of all the huge trees!  


Sundays are very special days cuz it's the only day we see Scott pretty much.  Blakely loves nursery and knows where to go right after sacrament and loves it!  Then gets spoiled by all of the attention from her dad the rest of the day!
This is what you get when you tell her to say "CHEESE."  The cricked smile!  Love it!
Saturday we saw some sun and were at the pool all day!  It was only 70, but so hot to us.  The pool was freezing but Blakely loved the luke warm hot tub!  And loves her aunts!  We'll, this is Aunt Alicia's twin sis Ash that was visiting.  Can you tell?!?  How confusing on a one year old!  She was doing double takes!
All in all it was a great week cuz we saw the sun for one day and now it's going back down into the 50's!  Um does anyone want to go somewhere warm with me?!?

I love these pictures - I can't believe it was warm enough for you to go to the pool. I'm sorry you live there with no sun, that just means Scott has to take you on a sweet vacay when you get back to the sunniest warmest place... tell him right now! Love you.
