8 Is Great!

Sissy and I had a super special day! After family (well, KID) pics, we ran to some White Elegance place or the other and found THE DRESS. Kate’s baptism dress. I couldn’t help but immediately fast forward another decade or two and realize that the other “white dress” day is rapidly approaching!! I hate that. Anyway, she looked super gorgeous! No question!

We got home with an hour to spare before the General Women’s Meeting…so what the hay? We ran over to the temple and took some pics of Sissy in her special dress (for her Baptism Announcement). Again, fun, but slightly painful to see her in her white dress walking around a temple…

We got a lot of good shots, but then the wind started picking up, making it hard to get any good pics. Plus, the meeting would be starting in about 15 minutes so we called it a day. When we went to leave, we discovered we were locked in the temple gates. Kate immediately panicked. I reminded her that we WOULD find a way out and that we were in a very safe place until then. We saw a little space under the gate that she could slide under…but not in that dress of course!

She exclaimed, “What’s more important? My dress or getting out?!!!” Without a doubt I remarked, “YOUR DRESS!” GEEZ, kids have no idea how much things cost!!!!!

Anyway, it wasn’t 5 minutes before the temple landsman dude saw us and unlocked the gate. He was very apologetic and thanked us for not telling his boss! HA!

We ran home and made it to Women’s Conference. Kate isn’t quite old enough, but she really wanted to come. I’m so glad she did! It was really special to have her there! Afterwards, she picked Roxberry for a treat. On the car ride there, she kept expressing how “GREAT it is to be 8!” I have to agree. It really is great!
