ANNOUNCEMENT...

The Rexburg Idaho Temple is the 125th operating temple in the Church. Announced in late 2003, the Rexburg Idaho Temple was dedicated on February 10, 2008 and is the third temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Idaho. The temple sits on the south end of the Brigham Young University-Idaho campus on the south side of Rexburg. BYU-Idaho had been the only LDS university without a temple adjacent to its campus.

The design of this temple differs from most in that the exterior was designed by a private firm, not the LDS Church's architectural department. This was done because the church wished it to have a fresh new look.

For your Information:

If you haven't already heard...mom & dad received a new calling at the temple and have been in training the past couple of weeks. Dad is now a recorder there and mom assists him in this sacred responsibility. I am excited for them as they grow and learn in this new phase of their temple service. They will not be able to leave as freely as they have in the past for family activities & gatherings...but I know that we will all be patient and understanding as to why. We have all been blessed by their temple service, and that the McCluskey family will continue to be blessed because of their righteousness and unselfish service.

***This would be a terrific FHE topic this month with the kiddos and tolet them know about Papa & Grandee's exciting news.

Valentine's Day Fun!

Lori asked me to make some sugar cookies for Valentines Day, (Terrific and easy recipe - so ask her for Grandma Webb's Sugar Cookie Recipe some time when you need a great tasting cookie!) and while Kyle & Lori napped (Lori had had a rough night which meant Kyle didn't get much sleep either), I had the kids decorate a couple and then they ate them. Lori had a cute "LIP" cookie cutter that we used. I'm sure they would have looked alot better if she had made them!!! We hope you all had a great day.

A Valentine Day Wish to a Soon to be Daddy....

Katie & "baby to be"...sent this to Trevor for Valentines Day.

LOOKING GOOD KATIE - Thanks for sharing!

McCluskey Family Update...

Kyle said he sent everyone a text message saying Lori came home late yesterday afternoon...but I have received a few phone calls and texts from a few of you that wanted an update...so I thought I'd post some pictures of what's going on here & give you the latest update.

So enjoy and please keep Lori, Kyle, and kiddos in your prayers...she still has a long road ahead of her!

All my love - especially tomorrow - XOXO

KENDRA

Delaney on Thursday morning before she headed off to a play date with her friend Lucy. She had her Valentine Day party the day before and was showing me a card a little boy had given her.



Lori about died when she came home from the hospital and saw how I let Chloe get dressed for school! She has her very own style that she is very proud of! Here she is showing off her picture and story of The Tale of Despereaux that she wrote and drew in school.


This is a picture of Delaney running out to the garage when she heard Chloe yell "Mommy's Home!!!!" The kids were all SO EXCITED to see her.

Kyle & AJ unloading bags from the hospital and the supplies they sent home for Lori.

Lori came in the house and visited with the kids. She was glad to get home and see her family. She enjoyed sleeping in her own bed and kyle slept a lot better too!

This is a picture of Baylee & Chloe's Valentine Day party loot. They both had great parties and Baylee even took a special something (treat) over to a SPECIAL SOMEONE and left it with a note on his door step.

UPDATE TODAY: Lori is doing well. She is tired and still in quite a bit of pain. I found out that she has kidney stones in both her kidneys, not just in her left one. It looks like she'll be having them blasted within the next week or two. The gall stones will be the last to be taken care of. She has not run a fever since being home, and her infection is doing better. All the girls attended a Primary Activity Day today and then went for a couple of hours to play with a friend who was here visiting from California. While they were gone over there, Kyle had me take AJ to go see Percy Jackson & the Lightning Thief. Tonight a family in their ward brought over In & Out and ate dinner with us and visited for about an hour. The kids are all getting ready for bed now.
The Queen Creek McCluskey's send you their love.

Well Wishes...

All of our LOVE & PRAYERS are with you Lori & Kyle as you are going through this trial. Lori we all wish you a very speedy recovery and luck through your surgeries! Depend on the Lord and he will comfort you.

MUCH LOVE -The McCluskey Clan
