Vancouver BC

I think I've mentioned before that my husband sometimes does "things" that make me go, "uh...why?"

Like recently when our newborn baby was only days old, and we dragged our whole family to City Hall to get passports.

I have to admit that part of me was thinking, "Really? This has to happen NOW?"

We had no travel plans. Passports cost money. I had my doubts.

And now I'm eating my words.
Again.

Last night my husband told me that a coworker mentioned the open house for the Vancouver BC temple on the bus ride home from work.

And spontaneous as he is, he said, "Let's go!"

And what do you know? The passports got here just days ago. So we actually CAN go.

I am so excited! I think the kids will love going inside the temple and feeling the wonderful Spirit that is there.

And the plan is to also visit the Capilano Suspension Bridge
We'll see which of the kids will be brave enough to cross that. Since they've seen "Horton Hears a Who", their imaginations are running wild with images of boards falling 200 feet:-)
(Here's the clip from the movie if you haven't seen it.)

It feels like Forever since we've done something fun together as a family with all the health issues lately, so I am feeling very blessed for this timely and meaningful trip we'll be able to take!
