I Love to See the Temple

On Saturday morning Tricia and I attended a session at the Denver Temple. We had a wonderful experience together. Our motivation to attend and make a goal of regular attendance came from a talk by Elder Scott from last year’s General Conference which we listened to as we traveled from Germany to Colorado. When we first arrived we saw what looked to be a field trip for a primary. Groups of children and a few adults were gathered together and seemed to be traveling from station to station as temple workers spoke to each group about some aspect of the temple and its purpose.

When we picked Jeffrey up from the Waite home he had been running and playing all day and was visibly tired. Tricia had purchased a box of rolls of which Jeffrey wanted one, but he was so tired that he fell asleep on the chair before we could get it to him on a napkin.

After he awoke we finished the Alice In Wonderland movie we had begun the night before. I had fallen asleep and needed to see the end again. When we returned the movie to King Supers we allowed Jeffrey to ride the penny horse. He shouted ye haw at the top of his lungs and Tricia could hear him in the back of the store. Several men paying for their items at a near check out joined in with his yells and whoops.
