Today we went to the Oquirrh Mountain Temple open house. We haven't taken the kids to an open house before and they were so excited to go inside for the first time. We had tickets for the 11:30 session. We got to ride in a golf cart from the car to the tents. Parker thought that was really cool. Then we watched the movie and got to go inside. We were really lucky because all of the lines were really short. Once getting inside the boys were so excited. They loved the oxen around the font. Bryson and Parker asked if they could be baptized in the font. They also loved the star chandelier in the celestal room. The other favorites of the day were the mirrors in the sealing room and all the pictures of Christ. It was the best experience.
Later that night Dan and I got to go on a date with Britton. We decided that the day before the kids get baptized we would take them out on a special date. So Britton picked Tepanyaki. He loved the onion volcano and the chief did so many fun tricks. He enjoyed the food and they gave him some kids chop sticks that were rubber band together and he ate whole meal with the chop sticks. He wants to go back for his birthday next year. Then we took him to get a new outfit for the baptism. And then went to the batting cages. Britton and Dan did a great job hitting. Then we went and got some treats to take home. Once we got home Britton rode his bike for about an hour. It was such a fun day. Thanks Britton for being such a wonderful boy.
