Memorial Day Weekend

On Memorial day weekend we took the kids to LA to checkout the LA Fabric/Garment/Jewelry district, then to the Los Angeles Temple.  It was fun to walk around the beautiful temple grounds and also a great teaching opportunity for the kids.  They loved walking up and down the steps and we even saw a bride and groom taking pictures!  Kylee said she was beautiful and that she looked like a princess.

The new visitor center is awesome and has a kids zone.  The kids played on these touch screens and colored pictures of the temple and Jesus.  After the temple we drove down LA's Miracle Mile on Wilshire Blvd and went to The Counter for lunch (mmmm chicken + corn roasted salsa sandwich that Jeremy gets all the time was delish!) and got Diddy Reise ice cream sandwiches for dessert on our way out of LA!

We also took the kids to the cemetery and showed them all the flags they put out for the people who served in the military.  We were also able to visit quite a few of my family members that are buried there; Grandma Poole, Uncle Rick and great Grandma and Grandpa Poole.

Then we came home and had some pool fun! These THREE have so much fun splashing around!
