Sometimes spur of the moment works best. We kept trying to clear a day for our family to go to the Draper Temple open house and it never happened. So on Sunday the 12th of July when we were discussing going to the Oquirrh Mtn Temple open house, we said, "How about tomorrow." Like the rest of you we enjoyed seeing the interior of this beautiful new temple and feeling of the spirit there.
I couldn't get over the big tent set up for the reception area afterwards. This puts my ward parties to shame! But our desserts were better...
We were SO hungry afterwards. It was a long drive out there from Heber, plus the wait, then the tour, and the drive back to the freeway, the kids could think of nothing else but eating. Matt treated us to Chuck-a-Rama. The best way to get your bucks worth there is to go when you are complelety famished as we were. The kids love a buffet so they were thrilled. Graham was bouncing around like a maniac and I was glad we were leaving as the dinner rush began.
Now that our tummies were full, we were game for some entertainment. Matt drove to Sundance. We noted that for our family to ride the lift it would cost the same amount that we had just dropped at Chuck. Besides the cost, we were in our Sunday best so we just looked through the shop and at the scenery. Everytime I go there I wonder why we don't go more often, then another three years pass...
