Temple Trip (and then some!)

Hyrum had Friday off this last week so we planned a trip up to Freiberg to visit the Temple and to have some fun in that part of Germany.  We invited along my friend Becky (whose husband has recently deployed) and her three boys.  We also had another friend, Miranda, along to help with kid control.  Becky and Miranda went to the Temple Friday evening and then Hyrum and I went on Saturday morning.  It worked out great so we could always have two people watching the 6 crazy boys at all times.

Saturday we spent the day in Seiffen, a cute town known for it's wooden toys.  Sunday we spent at the castle in Augustusburg.  I think everyone had a fun time, there were only a few meltdowns with the boys but mostly they all had fun together.

Julian playing in the water at the park in Stollberg.  This is our favorite place to stop for lunch on our way up to Freiberg.

Townsend playing at the park.

Julian and Connor at the playground.  These two were so cute together this weekend.  I even caught them holding hands once.

The real reason I come to Seiffen is to look around all the shops at the German woodwork
