Winter Quarters Temple
This past weekend we made the 3+ hour trip to Omaha to attend the Winter Quarters Temple. It was a quick trip. We went down on Friday afternoon with our friends the Clarks and returned Saturday afternoon. We stayed overnight and traded out babysitting while the other went to the temple.
This was the first time Chad and I had been to the Winter Quarters Temple, although it is our assigned temple. Since having Emily, it's been a challenge it make it to the temple due to it being a distance from our home. Mostly, we've just tried to make it to the temple during our visits to see family and friends. It was nice to be able to attend the temple together.
It is a well known fact that our daughter has difficulty sleeping anywhere besides her bed, and even that is a challenge. Following suit, Emily slept very little on Friday night. Unfortunately, that made for an unhappy, crying baby for our friends to watch. Apparently, she cried for all except the last 15 minutes before we arrived back to the hotel. Sorry guys!
This also meant that she was exhausted for our trip home. And then the MIRACLE....
Emily slept for almost 3 hours in the car on the return trip! Lesson learned...go to the temple and you will be BLESSED! :-) It was a great trip!

Long naps are few and far in between for us too... you learn to appreciate those little blessings.
Hey Amy, it's been awhile since I have talked to you. It was a blast going up to Omaha with you guys. THey found Nyah's towel and suit and sent it to us. So that is good news. Anyway, hope to see you soon. We will be going to the wading pool on Friday at noon.
