Ogden Temple

We went to the Ogden Temple open house today.  We were pleasantly surprised after the fiasco at the Brigham City Temple.  It was a perfect day and a good time to spend time with my family.

When we went to the Brigham City one it was poorly planned.  They had the line go through a parking garage and showed the video there in the boiling garage.  There was a girl in front of us that actually passed out.  Then it was very crowded in the temple itself.  So many people came back from that open house with the stories of great experiences, but not my family.

The Ogden Temple open house was much better.  They had the video in the Conference Center.  Then there was plenty of room for people to walk through the temple.  I was able to take my family though vaguely explaining each room.  I love the Celestial Room.  Zander wanted to touch the water in the baptismal font.  Don wanted to talk to the temple recorder.  Kyath asked questions.  Porter is at scout camp, so he missed it.  Dresden just wanted to keep the booties afterwards.  They even had a spot in the visitors tent where we were able to take a picture of our family in front of a huge picture.
