Right before Lucy turned 12 the St. Louis temple closed for some renovations. Lucy was disappointed since she was looking forward to going. We thought about making a trip to Nauvoo but we never did and then the Nauvoo temple closed for cleaning. The St. Louis temple re-opened in October but life has been so busy we haven't been able to take her. Finally while talking to JJ on Friday we decided we needed to make it happen. We felt bad that it took us so long to schedule a trip and take her. We should have made it more of a priority. We made a reservation and invited my parents to come with us. We were glad they were able to come and be with us. We brought the boys and had them play together in the ancillary building next door. Everything went smooth with the whole morning and we were able to have a nice time. Lucy had a really neat experience and enjoyed going. I know she was so happy we were able to go. She worked with JJ on family search to have family names to take which made it even more special. After the temple we went to brunch with my parents. It was a nice morning together!
