Brigham City Temple and the Old Man

 
Spur of the moment planning and me not having to be at work the first week at school allowed us to take a quick trip to Brigham City for the temple openhouse.  We were lucky enough to have Aunt Hillary come with us and enjoy the day as well.  Gavin thought it was pretty cool that we got to ride on big buses to get to the temple.  Both kids were surprisingly very reverant during the waiting process and did so good inside the temple too.  Gavin was intrigued with the pamphlet that we got before we went in the temple and was excited to see the river (baptismal font).  Once inside it was so beautiful and spiritual.  I held Gavin up so he could see in the mirrors that are across from each other and told him we would go on forever just like the mirrors.  He was amazed and said, "Wow that is a really long time."  I am so glad we got the opportunity to see the temple and am grateful for my eternal family!

Gavin loves his Aunt Hill!!
 
 
 
It was hard for Gavin to keep his hands out of the water, and he kept wanting to throw a penny in it to make a wish...what a kid!
 
 
This year Carl turned the big 30 and we had to celebrate.  We had my family over for a bbq and had a good time enjoying each other's company.

Kamryn had to supervise the boys...she knows the kind of mischief they can get into when left alone!
