Today was the Ogden Utah Temple dedication, so church was cancelled for members in Utah to attend the wonderful celebration. As such, Emily and Lily would not have their usual Sunday church adventure. When Daddy was all dressed up for the event, Emily insisted on putting her "church shoes" (sandals) on to go to church with him. I tried to distract her with a new fun activity - making cookies. Emily loved watching the beater spin and adding the ingredients to the bowl. Most of all she liked taste-testing the cookie dough - YUMMY! After making the cookies, Emily loved helping wash the dishes. Wow! What a great helper - I hope it sticks through the teenage years ;)! Although this was a good hour or more distraction, Emily still insisted we go to church. So we did - twice! We played lots in the nursery. Hopefully she will remember how much she loves church and nursery next week and will go by herself. We'll see!
