January 2012- Back post

January was full of fun stuff. I was in a good mood in January and I wasn't quite back in school yet.
The first week of January we went to Kansas City to hang out with Tyler while he was there interviewing with a hospital. It was a short trip, but a lot of fun. We thought we would spend some time visiting the new temple and also the art museum. We couldn't do anything but drive by the temple and the art museum is closed on Monday. So here are our pictures from outside both of those buildings.
These are the statues outside the front door of the art museum, they are soldier-ish looking figures without heads. A little odd.
We also hung out at a big mall and rode the carousal.
Marissa was heading to ballet one night and had cold arms. I made her some arm warmers with my old (clean!) socks. It works :)
Owen is cute.
We went geocaching with Nathan. That is when you take a GPS thing and go hiking to find "treasure" containers that people have hidden at specific coordinates. We went out to Little Prairie Lake, even though I think it isn't called that anymore. We had a good time, but Marissa wanted to keep everything we found.
Did I mention we had such a mild winter? We did. This is the beginning of January, we only have jackets on, and there isn't a snow flake anywhere. That is why we have so many outside activities kinds of things. We went to the fish hatchery at Meramec Springs. We brought all the leftover dog food that we had from Puppy and fed it to the fish. They really like dog food!
Well, I guess we did have a little bit of snow. This lasted for about a day. So we got out our sleds and went down the gentle slope by the deck. It was rather slushy.
William and Marissa both have been losing teeth. One morning they happened to both lose a tooth. We all had ice cream afterwards and it was a nice way to start the morning :)
