8 Months of Covid-19 Life

I have a happy COVID update! We are allowed back at church. Right now, its every other week, but it's so nice to be back with our ward to worship together. As you can see, we are all happy to be back at church together. We have to wear masks, of course,  and sit six feet apart, but we don't care. It's totally worth it!


A girl in my ward made all the primary kids masks and they are the cutest temple prints. Because Benson isn't technically in Primary yet, he didn't get one. But the girl who made them, Jenn Mueller, is my ministering sister and when she found out Benson didn't have one, she made him one to match. 
So now all of my kids have the darling church masks to wear every other week. 


Another happy update- the actual construction on our temple has started. We drove over to the designated spot and took a picture, so we could have a before picture. I would also like to do progress pictures. 


We got to watch the groundbreaking virtually and it was amazing. We are so very excited. We feel blessed that even though COVID has halted life in so many ways, the progress on the temple hasn't slowed. After all the permits and approvals, they have finally started to build! 
We also got the rendering of our future temple.  We literally could not be more excited. 
Isn't it beautiful? 
We can't wait to take more progress pictures and then finally a finished product picture. 

Besides those two updates, not much has changed. We are still homeschooling. Chris is still working from home. We are still working on the fixer upper house with all our free time. But we are happy healthy and Thanksgiving is coming and we are finally going to see all our Drake family.
