Temple Lights

Tonight the family met at the Oakland LDS Temple to see the lights. This has been a tradition in our family for the past couple of years now and the kids really look forward to it. Everyone but Renee and Brittany's families were in attendance. Uncle Tom even brought his soon-to-be finance Alba. It was great to finally meet her. It was nice that our family got there a little early so we could take in the sunset over the San Francisco Bay and watch all the changing colors. Tonight was fun and definitely not complete without a mishap. First of all Jake pooped through this clothes and did have a change of clothes to replace it. They borrowed a sleeper to replace and put on the snow jacket. Then Jake and Max were shoving each other on one of the bridges that goes over the little river/rock/water bed and Max ended up pushing Jake in the water. The sleeper was now soaked and it was freezing outside. Luckily we had another sleeper that was a little to small for him and he was wrapped in an extra adult coat. Finally we made it through the lights to the top of the Temple. What a wonderful view being able to look over the city lights and see the bridge all lit up. Afterwards we all caravanned to Fenton's Ice Cream Parlor in Oakland. SO YUMMY!!!! Black and Tan!! Just like good old Leatherby's. Thanks for such a great night family!
