Olivia's Riding Lesson

Olivia Grace is most definitely in her element around a horse.

My enjoyment watching her prep and then ride this horse was supreme!

Loved-Loved-Loved being able to attend her lesson with her.

Gilbert Arizona Temple

After church on Sunday (2:00 PM to 5:00 PM), Mandy and the kiddos took me to see the new temple in Gilbert.  Not that I hadn't seen it before - it's hard to miss it when you're out and about - but Mandy actually parked the van and we got out an walked around a bit.  It won't be open to the public until January, and there is still some construction going on, so we weren't able to walk onto the grounds.  I took lots of pics of  Mandy and crew, hoping that there would be one where everyone was looking at the camera, didn't have eyes closed, etc.  Alas, it was not to be.  So, I've posted several so that everyone has at least one that compliments them.  Toward the end of the photo shoot, the sun began to set, and the AZ sky was just beautiful.  After we left the temple, we hurried home, ate, and then Mandy, Olivia, Chisum, and I attended YW in Excellence with Layla.  Took pictures after that, but the lighting was so bad that we ended up deleting them. 

 Yep, by this time, they had had it!  Ha!!!
