A night full of laughs!!!


We were able to add a new Temple to our list! The Oquirrh Mountain Temple recently opened in Daybreak and we were eager to check it out! We had been wanting to go to the Temple with Natalie and John (My sis in law and bro in law) So, we set up a date. We met at their house and then headed over to the Temple and had plans to go to dinner afterward. It was great to catch up with them and awesome to share a temple session with them. At the Oquirrh Mtn Temple you have to make reservations, so we got it scheduled for 4:00pm. This temple was so gorgeous! It is so modernized. Dark woods in some rooms, really light wood in other rooms with really pretty white furniture and just amazing chandeliers. I really love going to new temples to see what they do differently. It was an excellent experience. One funny thing about our temple session, however. During the session Natalie's Veil fell off and they were really struggling to get it back on correctly. So, John started to snicker a little bit. Well, when you are not supposed to laugh it really just makes you laugh that much harder, so because he was laughing we all started laughing. Luckily I could control myself. The other three however, not so lucky. They all got the giggles and could barely control themselves. Luckily they were able to brush it off like coughs, but it was pretty funny to see three grown adults have a giggle fest. We ended our session and even with the giggle fest, it was a very spiritual very good session! And again, the temple was gorgeous!


When we were finished we headed over to Olive Garden for dinner. The food was excellent and we were able to have some great conversation! Of course we laughed more about the fact that they had a giggle fest, but we also talked about the great session, talked about work, and a bunch of other stuff. We had another funny thing at dinner. So, John and Christian ordered the all you can eat pasta, which means you can choose what you want. So, originally John ordered sausage on his pasta, but it came with meatballs. No big deal he will get sausage on his next round he said. So, the next round he orders sausage and Christian orders meatballs. Well, Johns came out with meatballs again and Christian's came out with nothing. So, we laughed about it and asked to get some sausage. About 4 minutes later a different Waiter came to our table with a side dish of food and said, "did somebody need some meatballs?" We all busted out laughing!!!! And said again, we actually needed sausage, but since Christian had ordered meatballs we kept those and waited for John's sausage for him. I know you are wondering, so Yes, he did finally get them, but wow! It was so funny! We couldn't help but laugh about everything that had happened!

It was an excellent night and we had such a great time laughing and talking! Plus, we were able to add to our Temple list! If you didn't know this before we are trying to get to as many temples as possible and would like to at least do all of the ones in Utah. We are getting closer! Our next one is going to be Draper!

I haven't been to the temple in so long. I wish I was as good as you two are about going. I miss how good you feel after you do go.
