Temple lights with the family

Dupri was having a ball. He was so good that he was listening to everyone and still having heaps of fun. I rewarded him with a 'Good Boy Dupri' and a hug and kiss. Not that I give those to him anyways but I felt really proud of him tonight.

Jax and Dionte. It was kool that they came with us. Helped with the transport. hahaha. Thanks guys. This is a pretty kool photo of them.

Kara and Tiarns. It was kool being there with my family.

Me and Pearl just cheesing it out. hahaha. Obviously Pearl stole the show.

Pearl and Tiarns walked from the cars to the lights holding hands all the way. Kool.

I went for a walk around by myself just so I could see what the lights were like. But then all of a sudden I just felt like I wanted to burst out crying. I didnt have my husband there to share this experience with. He wasnt here to help hold the kids or to have a family photo in front of the lights or even to hold my hand up the the driveway. Sister Katene came up to me and gave me a hug and I just couldnt help but start balling my eyes out. I was really trying not to but it just overcame me. She gave me this flower from her garden which smelt really good. She said that she picks them every night just so she can smell it before she goes to sleep. I was really touched that even tho it wasn't the hugest gesture or anything, but it made me feel soo much better. Like as if it was Tangi giving me that flower. So now the kids are asleep and I'm staying up waiting for my sister to come in and hang out. She has to get her girls to sleep first which takes ages. hahaha. But yeah, time for hold outs from the kids. hehehe.
