Last month we had the opportunity to go visit the Brigham City Temple open house. It was a long drive for the kids to go see the temple, but once they got there, they were not disappointed one bit! Eden and Enoch have always had a fascination for temples, but now to go inside was just wonderful. They loved the baptismal font (I was surprised it was filled with water and they let us walk right past it!! We were luck my kids didn't jump right in.) They loved how there were flowers in all the circle windows. We later learned that they were the peach blossoms, because of Brigham city's fame in peach orchards. As we walked into the Celestial room, the kids were so amazed at the beauty and I just held Enoch and we talked about how it was Jesus' room, that really helped him understand how special that room was. I'm so glad our kids love the temple. After we left we went to Wendy's to get some food and Eden got out a piece of paper and drew a picture of the Brigham City Temple, a rectangle with two big spires, one on each side, and a bunch of circles all over the temple, a small flower in each one. She showed it to me and said, "mom, this is the Brigham City Temple, it is my best friend." How sweet our children are!!
