Temple trip

Saturday, February 23

We finally made it to the temple to do some baptisms with Luke and M&M.  We had a day set aside a couple of weeks ago but then something came up with M&m and we had to put it off.  Then our temple closed for 2 weeks for some cleaning and the Draper Temple was closed the week before and overlapping one week.  So the Saturday before ours opened we drove over to my parents' house and dropped off the younger kids and then drove up to the Draper Temple with M&M and Luke.  We had had some snow off and on that morning and the parking lot at the temple was pretty snow covered.  When we got into the temple DH and I needed to go upstairs to get some family cards printed for the work we were going to do.  It was a neat experience seeing DH baptize first M&M and then Luke for some of our ancestors that we have done research on and found.  Then they all changed into dry clothes and DH was able to confirm them.  I'm glad that we were able to do that as a family and look forward to more opportunities as we find more family members that have not had their work done.  M&M and Luke each did 10 names and we still have a couple that we didn't do that day.
