Just in case ya'll want to know the best way to warm my heart... say "hey mom, we set a goal to go to the temple once a month. It's the 30th and we haven't been yet. Could you drop us off at the temple?"  That will do it every time.  I love that my kids would have a goal to go to the temple.  It is my very favorite place next to home.  

We had a wonderful time with the kids here in Nashville!  We were able to watch conference together and Kyle had a son to take to Priesthood session.  We ate some amazing food as always when you have Lindsey in the house.  They are so fun and ready to do anything.  They went on a little lunch cruise on the General Jackson, while I watched Gemma (she was thrilled to be able to take a long nap).  We had a great time shopping and the only thing that would have made this trip perfect would be if Grandpa would have been able to be with us the whole time.  He got home very late most nights, just as Gemma was getting ready for bed.  She was good enough to stay up and chase up and down the hall with him, running after balls and building block towers.  He is the best Grandpa any girl could every have.  We dropped them off at the airport at 9:30 and headed to the office to get ready to pick up the incoming missionaries at 3:30 and to start the craziness which is transfer week!

She started talking about blowing bubbles as soon as she got here.  She remembered from the last time she was here.  

Kisses goodbye to her grandpa

We are so pleased to be this amazing girls parents.  We couldn't be more thrilled with her and her sweet family.  

It could not be just any horse!  It had to be this one.

As anyone can clearly see...we love each other!

Gemma with her favorite Grandpa who can read "Are You My Mother?" better than any other!
Love the look on her face!

We stopped at the Opry Mills Mall and had our favorite "Sweet Ce Ce's" frozen yogurt!

We are so blessed that Lindsey, Nick and Gemma could come to visit!  Kyle had to do zone meetings so that he could show "Meet the Mormon's" to the missionaries and do a training.  I went to the airport and waited patiently for our sweet family to come.  I waited and waited and then finally got a text from Nick saying that they were in the baggage claim area.  I had waited at the wrong place.  Stink!  I hurried down the stairs to the baggage claim and here is the rest of the story!  I love this sweet girl!..and her parents of course.
