A day in Salt Lake City

We spent the day in Salt Lake City. We took the kids to the Oquirrh Mountain temple Open House. It was just beautiful, and the best was Jon-Jon singing "Jesus wants me for a sunbeam" all the way through the celestial room. *sigh*

After the temple visit, we went to Target and to Sweet Tomatoes for an early dinner. Sweet Tomatoes is our favorite buffet restaurant and there isn't one in Utah County.

After Sweet Tomatoes, we went to IKEA where we discovered that we were out of diapers and that I had left the baby wipes in the bathroom in Target. Fortunately for us, IKEA keeps free diapers and wipes in the bathrooms. Of course, the diapers are size 3 and Jon-Jon is in size 6, so it was a tight fit, but by golly, it worked.

On our way home, we stopped by Mom and Dad Ferrin's house for a visit. Mom made bread with the kids and convinced Adam that to keep his little rolls rising safely on the trip home, that he would have to be very quiet. Eric and I couldn't help laughing at poor Adam's attempts to keep his brothers and sister quiet so that his "sleeping" bread to make it home to the oven in safety. I think it was the quietest that he's been in months.

Good times.
