My goal when I moved to Utah was to attend and do baptisms in as many Utah temples as possible. I did really well for the first few months, but I must admit, I am guilty of becoming lazy in my temple attendance. I am grateful to live so close to so many temples and I love going to them. I really need to get back on track and visit the last few temples that are fairly close by.
Draper Temple - October 19, 2010
Oquirrh Mountain Temple - October 20, 2010
St. George Temple - October 23, 2010I was so excited to have the chance to visit this one since it is so far away! I went down to St. George with my family and made sure to go.
Jordan River Temple - October 27, 2010
Mount Timpanogos Temple - October 29, 2010
Salt Lake City Temple - November 13, 2010I got to go to this one with my dear friends, Linnea and Jerry Holbrook. Linnea came down from Rexburg to go to a concert with me that night, and her dad was down from Alaska to help his parents. So we all got together and went in the morning. It was very special to have Bishop Holbrook baptize me. It felt like the good old days.
I love temples so much! They are truly Heaven on Earth! The spirit that is there cannot be found anywhere else. All of life's worries, fears, concerns, and frustrations are left at the doors. The work done inside is so sacred and beautiful. I love seeing so many temples dot the Salt Lake Valley. I will strive to up my attendance again. I would like to at least visit Ogden, Bountiful, and Provo. I thought for sure I would get Provo in sooner, but I'm not down there long enough to fit it in when I go. I wanted to visit Logan and Manti too. Someday I will.
