Travel ideas for Kids

iheartorganizing has some fun ideas for traveling with kids.  I especially like the "kid clips for trips" and the activity booklet with games for the kids to play.  You can download the booklet for free for a limited time.  So check it out.  Our family has a big road trip coming up later this fall.  It will be fun to incorporate some of these ideas.

All Dressed Up

Sorry to be slow with posting.  With traveling, getting ready for school and seminary to start and trying to get my home in order things have been a little hectic around these parts, to say the least.
 
My sister-in-law got married at the Oquirrh Mountain Temple in South Jordan, Utah.
All of our hard work paid off.  Everyone is so cute!  
 
My adorable family all dressed up and ready to party.


 The flower girls loved helping their aunt with her train.
 My other sister-in-law made this gorgeous wedding cake.
 The decorations were hired.  Great choice.

 Doesn't he look so spiffy!  I had to make a bow tie the night before to go with the vest and pants that I made.  We tried to find a regular dress shirt for our little guy to go with the tie I already had made to match the big boys, but we were fortunate enough to borrow a little tuxedo shirt before we left town.  Everyone loved the little bow tie.
And we sent them off right to live happily, ever after. . .
