Seattle Temple

Last week Pete kicked me out of the house to go to the temple. It was a much needed reprieve from my daily responsibilities. With Pete in school I don't often get the opportunity to go out by myself. I took my camera in hopes that I would get an opportunity to take some pictures of the temple with the fall colors. At first it was rainy and gloomy but when I came out it was spectacular. The sky was this beautiful brillant blue filled with the perfect white fluffy clouds and the colors on the trees was just breath taking. I really love these pictures and I am not comfortable with architecture or landscape photography. I have really been practicing in these areas, I am sure someone with a better eye could pick out whats wrong with them but I really like them.

Just down the hill from us is the canal and there is this really great trail that runs along the canal. I have come to be pretty fond of walking down there with the kids and watching the boats. The other day I invited Gabby's friends to come with us. So it was me and 4 kids and 1 stroller, so the stroller was a sit and stand and I pushed all 4 kids on in the stroller. Talk about a workout physical and mental (3 of them fought over sitting in one seat). I thought it would be fun to walk to the bridge which is about a 10 minute walk. We were fortunate that as soon as we got there, there was a sailboat wanting to go under the bridge so we got to watch the bridge go up. Gabby was so excited and just sat in awe watching the whole thing. We are still getting used to being around this stuff on a regular basis and we are loving it.
