We had a fun week but not many pictures so bear with me. Kelly, the boys and I went on a tour of the Sweet Candy factory in Salt Lake. We put on our hair nets, took off all our jewelry and were told we would be walking very close to lots of candy and we could not touch it. They gave us samples along the way so we were able to keep our hands to ourselves. Katie and boys were suppose to go with us but they have been sick. We bought $28 worth of candy to can in jars for our emergency stash. They say in an emergency we will want chocolate. Of course we got cinnamon bears and taffy too.

Wednesday we met Sis. Payne for lunch. She was a sister missionary in Palmyra and was such a great missionary. She lives in Sandy and just got a job in St. George with a radio station there. We were happy to met up with her before she left. After lunch we went to the FH Center and visited with the Rikers who are serving a Family History Mission and served in the Palmyra Temple with us. We met the greatest people in Palmyra.

Sis. Payne is in the Red sweater and shite shirt in the middle.

Thursday morning, 7:30 am, we met the Crookstons and took a tour of the new Draper Temple. Beautiful, beautiful. We kept saying how much room they have compared to the Palmyra Temple. Friday we attended the Jordan River Temple for Ward Temple day.

Friday night is pizza and movie or game night with Kelly & Rob and Saturday morning I drove to Lehi to baby sit for Kory and Katie while they went to the temple.

Paul has come down with a cold and we hope he gets better before Wednesday when we leave to go to Idaho where we will baby sit for Kimberly and Gary while they snowmobile for a few days. Tonight, Sunday, we went to the Conference Center for a Devotional for the Jordan River Temple. The new presidency spoke and it was a great meeting. We are so blessed and count our blessings every day.
