Weekend Update: Temple Day and Father's Day

Friday:

+The long drive to Boise. It didn't used to be that long, but with a baby it seems so much longer! She slept until Jerome this time.
+This night began a streak of sleeping through the night for little Miss Maelie...and that streak is still going! :)

Saturday:

+Preston had is last soccer game of the season. Their team was the Animal Ninjas (awesome) and Matt was the coach! The even got trophies!
+We did a whole bunch of relaxing and playing throughout the afternoon on Saturday
+Maelie's cousins loved on her, told her stories, and made her laugh. She loves them
+At 6pm everyone gathered at the temple to be with Kanon while he received his endowments. It was beautiful. This was also the first time I left Maelie for longer than 2 hours (3.5 to be exact) with someone other than David. I think I did pretty well all things considered. Pyper probably thought I was crazy when I gave her instructions before we left, but whatever!
+After the temple everyone came back to mom and dad's house for root beer floats and visiting!
+At about 10pm we all decided was the best time to do our Father's Day shopping......whoops! I was mistaken and thought Boise would have a better pocket knife selection than Rexburg...FALSE. Well at least not at 10pm the night before Father's Day.
+We then proceeded to stay up until about 2am (woof).

Sunday:

+Maelie and I gave David his Father's Day gifts, which was a bag of beef jerky and a card saying he can go pick out a pocket knife....fail.
+9am church (killer after staying up until 2am)
+Pyper gave a talk about the Book of Mormon, but she didn't tell anyone she was speaking! She did awesome.
+After church everyone came home and helped mom prepare a big lunch of all different kinds of pasta, pizza and salads! Plus a homemade pie and delicious brownies for dessert.
+We gave Dad his Father's Day gifts and then lounged around for a few hours.
+Around 4pm we were back on the road to Rexburg. Maelie only made it to Twin Falls this time, and needed food, but then she slept the rest of the way!
+She was SOOO happy to be back home and she let us know too. :)

All the fathers in my life!
