Thursday we spent the morning walking around Temple Square. It was one of the highlights of our whole trip. The South Visitors center has a model of the Salt Lake Temple with cut-outs on 2 sides showing what the temple looks like inside. There were also interactive kiosks (and Sister Missionaries) to explain what happens in each area of the temple. If you haven’t seen it yourself, I highly recommend it, or at least look at the website which is also awesome! After we left the South Visitors center, we met some sweet Sister Missionaries who took us to the North Visitors center and showed us the new presentation called “The Family Is Central to God’s Plan.” AMAZING presentation! Go see it if you get a chance! We thoroughly enjoyed all out time on temple square and we also got to meet up with Andrew for a little while as he works close by and it was a great morning.
After leaving downtown we drove out to Sandy to meet up with one of Paul’s college friends, Susan Gedris. Right as we were arriving to have lunch, Aaron got sick, which necessitated an emergency trip to Wal-Mart and more laundry! We went to a park to visit and eat lunch and enjoy the gorgeous weather and it was good to catch up with our friend. That evening I stayed home with the boys and Paul and Grandpa went to watch Matt and Andrew play a doubles tennis match.
Friday Grammy took the day off work and we went to see the new movie Cars 2 with Michelle, Lis, Tiffany, Kate and Lucy. The boys liked it but Chris wanted to spend more time in the hallway with the arcade car game than in the movie theatre watching Cars. After the movie we drove to In-N-Out Burger for lunch then just hung out for the rest of the day. In the evening I put Christian to bed while the rest of the group went to Abe’s last baseball game (which they won!)
(Sorry for the lack of pictures…I promise there will be more tomorrow!)
