There is a quote: "LIFE IS NOT ABOUT WAITING FOR THE STORMS TO PASS.... IT'S ABOUT LEARNING TO DANCE IN THE RAIN."
With 12 children and 5 adopted from Russia, we have had challenges and trials along with our joys. We have decided that we must
learn how to "dance in the rain." We must notice and acknowledge the joys and miracles in our lives.
They exist daily -- we just need to make sure we do not miss them!! This blog is to remind us of these miracles and joys!

APRIL 21, 2012 -- KANSAS CITY TEMPLE OPEN HOUSE

ROAD TRIP TO KANSAS CITY -- April 14, 2012

We had the chance to take the family to Kansas City to the temple open house.  What a great opportunity for our kids!  We enjoyed walking through the new temple and reminding the kids about their temple sealings and the 2 times that some of them had been in the temple all ready in their lives!  Rebecca and Rachel recognized the baptismal font.  Bethany and Matthew were excited about seeing the font and knowing that in just 6  months they will get to go to Oklahoma City and do baptisms at the temple there.
We are still in the Oklahoma City Temple district, but we might make some family road trips to the Kansas City temple -- the kids would love to do a Saturday at Worlds of Fun!!!  Temple on Friday and Roller Coasters on Saturday!  What a great potential!!!

After the temple, we went to Liberty, MO and toured the Liberty Jail there and then over to Independence to tour the visitor's center there.  It was a full day.
