Winter Quarter's Temple Trip

Yesterday we went to the Winter Quarter's temple. That is the temple that we are assigned too. It is four hours away from us! We had quite the trip there to the temple! I think I was being tested! I had to have been. Okay so I will start at the beginning. I bought each of the boys a bottle of Propell. That way it would last them through the trip. We have had some seriously hot days here and it was eight in the morning and already super hot! I think in the 80's or the 90's I can't remember but we had a lot of humidity as well which made it feel like it was in the hundreds! Crazy!! As soon as you stepped out of your house you were sweating and I am not kidding at least I was! I am not use to this humidity! Anyway just to give a little background. So I didn't really put that into my thought process as I bought these drinks for the boys. Well Malachi and Isaac drank all of theirs before we even left for the temple! I didn't know that though. See our boys have traveled a lot in our car from here to Wa and such so I thought hey what is a four hour drive. Well Isaac was having bladder issues!!! About one hour in a half into our trip he starts yelling Mom I have to pee. (just for those who don't know we let the boys go potty in a empty bottle as we are driving) It is so great when there are two adults! So I told Isaac to unbuckle and to come up to the front I am explaining as I always do to make sure that his man hood is in the bottle before he pees. Well he didn't do that and all I could see was a stream of urine going everywhere!!!! All over me and my arm and on Alma's leg a little bit but more then anything on my seats!!!! Ahhhhhh. I was yelling Isaac stop stop put your manhood in the bottle!!!! He just couldn't stop once he started.I was driving at this time and I had to pay attention to the road. I did go off a little bit a couple of times but we were good and it was just onto the shoulder of the road. Anyway so I asked him if he was done when he wasn't going anymore and he said yes and pulled up his pants and sat back in his seat and got buckled. So then I asked Malachi if he could please get me some wipes because my arm and hand was covered in urine, so he did that for me.

Then about twenty to thirty minutes he starts saying that he has to go pee again! I told him No! You just peed all over me and some on your brother ( which I did clean up, after I was all cleaned)and all over my car! You do not have to go pee. Well he didn't like that so much and so he threw a huge fit. Well Malachi starts saying he has to go so I told him to go in the bottle and he could hold it himself and he said okay so he did and was good to go. Then Isaac says that he has to go so I said okay it has been a while and asked Malachi if he could help hold the bottle this time and don't let Isaac out of the chair. Well Malachi told me that he had some pee on his pants. I thought maybe a dribble or something. So I asked Malachi is a little bit or a lot. Malachi said a lot! Well we ended up stopping to get some food and I wanted to see how bad it was. Well he was soaked all the way to his chest!!!! I couldn't' believe it!!!! I have never had so much trouble with that! So thankfully there was a Walmart!!! So I bought new under ware, shirt, and shorts for Isaac. Then we finished going to the temple. When we reached the temple Isaac said he had to go pee again and I just took him when we stopped for food and clothing. So I said okay let me get directions and then I will get you to the bathroom. Well he didn't want to wait so he pulled down his pants stood on the back row and while leaning on the middle seat started peeing on the toys that we brought for them to share with the other children!!!! Malachi was freaking out and I asked him what was wrong because I had no idea this was happening!!! Malachi said Isaac is peeing on my toys!!! I looked back and sure enough he was doing that!!!!! All over my seat and rug and toys!!!! I couldn't believe it!!! I was able to make it all the way to Washington by myself with the boys and back and never had this problem!!! No where close at all!!!! I was in awe! I was having a hard time finding words! So I told him never ever will I give you that drink ever ever ever ever again while we are in the car!!!! Then everything went great!!! I watched other people's children so that they could go since I had already gone at the Temple in Washington and I know how far it is so they don't get the opportunity to go all the time. Anyway so the kids were great as we were watching them and Isaac went I think like three to four more times while we were there. It was awesome though. We went to the bookstore and had fun in there. Saw lots of things that I want. We took lots of pics of the temple and the boys loved it. We had a great time with our friends the Menna's and the O'neil's while we all took pictures of us and our families at the temple. It was a lot of fun. I have lots of pics. I will post them once I am able to. My computer is acting funny and it won't let me download the latest flasher player for adobe : ( I have tried and it says that it was complete but I can't look at video's and it won't let me do the smile box! I am so so sad!!! That is why I haven't done too many posts! Well besides being very busy! I can look back and laugh about it now but man it was such a learning experience for me! I have I think graduated from the level of patience that I was on before and have gone to the next level! Kids are great!!!!! Never a dull moment!
