We had a fabulous weekend! We are all very blessed to be able to go to two temple open houses ~ Our children have the sacred opportunity to walk through two temples before being dedicated...a blessing that used to be rare, but with the building of so many new temples when the economy was still good, we are blessed to be at the tail end of the massive push for the building of temples under the direction of President Hinckley.

We met the Ritz's and their six kiddos in Safford and spent an awesome spirit filled weekend at the temple. Our tour had thirteen kids in it~ You could have heard a pin drop...THE WHOLE TIME! The tour guides were awesome, they let us take what time we needed, the kids were in awe and now have a slight understanding of our love for that sacred place.
It was a bit overwhelming for me to have all of my children in the celestial room at the same time. It really made Mike and I think about the importance of teaching our children the Gospel and the sacred covenants we make when we are in the Lords House.
