Odds

On Monday I drove to the temple with the boys. I wanted to take a photo of the temple to have framed for our dining room. I knew that it was closed on Mondays, but had hoped that the gates would be open so I could enter the grounds immediately surrounding it, but they were shut. Instead I took some photos of the boys in the stake centre grounds. Unfortunately they didn't come out too well due to the boys being too quick as they ran around, harsh sun overhead and dappled shade under the trees. I did like these though.





I also took some snaps of some of the flowers.









On the home front, Grant has dug out the random bush in the middle of the lawn ...



... finished sealing the deck with protector and added the edging strips to the front of the patio ...



... and we've hung a shelf above the table in the dining room. The colour is called black-brown and it's more black than brown but it matches our sofas so it looks okay.



Today I'm enjoying

• cooler weather
• Noah's long nap
• peace and quiet while Daniel amuses himself
• hot, fresh banana bread
