Brigham City Temple

Our friends Annie and Riot invited Emeri and I to go with them to the open house for the Brigham City Temple, so we woke up early and drove for a bit to see the newest temple inside and out!


 Emeri and Riot just being too cute! 


When you walk into the temple you must put plastic booties over your shoes to keep it clean! Emeri was no exception to the rule! 
and she actually kind of liked them! : ) 

I didn't take any pictures inside (for obvious reasons), but it's gorgeous!
 I love temples and how beautiful they are! : )
...



While you walk through the temple there is a reverence if you need to talk you whisper to try and take in the spirit that the temple has and out of respect for The Lords house! 
However, an almost 2 year old doesn't quite understand this! : ) 
As we walked through there were lots of users to let us now where to go and to answer any questions that we might have well... every time Emeri saw an user she would say, in a not so quite voice, "Hi! How's it goin?" and when we walked by the baptismal fount I showed Emeri the oxen around it and she mooed very loud! : ) 
It was very cute and innocent!
 She loved seeing all the pictures of Jesus and She also loved the chandeliers! She kept asking for more!
It was a great experience and I'm glad I took Emeri! Even though she doesn't understand what a temple is I think she could tell that we were in a special and important place! 
...

After the tour...
Emeri booking it to the water fountain!  

She found it! 

This girl and water...!
 At one point, when I wasn't paying my full attention to her, she was on top of the edge of the fountain ready to get in and swim! One second later and she would have been in up to her waist in nice cool fountain water! hahaha! 

Thanks for inviting us Annie! What a great/special time!
