Krishna Temple

In history a couple of weeks ago we learned about India and a little about Buddaism. The following week we went on a field trip to the Krishna Temple in Spanish Fork, Utah. It was very beautiful and they served a very nice vegitarian buffet. They also raise lamas and have many animals. It was a fun place to visit, but I wouldn't visit again with as many kids. On their website and over the phone they seemed to be very open to having children come to visit, but once we got there it was a different story.

They had this little pavillion on their grounds and after having to be quiet and still for so long the kids found great joy in dancing on this "stage". I believe this was my favorite part of the trip.

They even had a pond on their grounds with great big koi in it. They kids loved watching them.

Robyn, Emma and Aiden have been taking a Shakespere class with our homeschool group this semester. They worked on the play "The Tempest". I got to sew the costumes and they got to have a good time memorizing Shakespere and hopefully learned how to understand it a little better. It was great to watch Aiden learn to be excited about being on a stage. I kept reminding myself how far he has come. Last year was his first year of doing the Primary program. That was 4 years of not participating because he was so scared. I knew it wouldn't be long before the Kibbie side kicked in :). Here are some highlights from this evening...
