Tulips at the Botanical Gardens and the family at the temple in DC.

Spring Break 2012

We went to Washington DC this year for spring break. We had a lot of fun seeing all sorts of museums, buildings and monuments. The flowers were beautiful and we really enjoyed the outdoors as the weather was wonderful. The Arboritum had big beautiful camillas, some of which looked painted. The tulips at the Botanical Gardens and the DC temple were amazing. As we drove places in DC, I would point out different buildings to the children. After a couple of days, on the way to the temple, I asked if anyone knew what big building we were passing was and Daniel replied, "The United States of Everything!" (Turns out it was the US Army building.)

Conference quote

I love the way this quote by Boyd K. Packer is worded: "The ultimate end of all activity in the Church is to see a husband and his wife and their children happy at home, protected by the principles and laws of the gospel, sealed safely in the covenants of the everlasting priesthood."
