Big Summer Temple Day

It took quite a bit of effort between soccer practices and Shakespeare, but I was able to carve out a time to do a mini temple day! It wasn't quite like the 12-temples-in-one day ultimate event from years ago, but it turned out good. We would roll dice at each temple to find out what things to take a picture of- a color, something on the temple, and a selfie. AND, Katelyn and Whitney got to go in and do baptisms at 2 temples!  Provo City Center and Oquirrh Mountain.  So that was pretty awesome, I wanted them to get to do 2 in one day! And of course we had treats to spice it up.
Here are the 5 kids at the Jordan River Temple.
Mount Timpanogos- a selfie with me to prove I was there!

Provo City Center: Whitney got her turn for a photo shoot, and I noticed this gorgeous stained glass over a door.
Draper Temple:

More Mount Timpanogos- I think it gets the best flowers award!
More pretty flowers and Oquirrh Mountain:



More Whitney with my Portrait mode:
Full view of Jordan River and Maris portrait.


my foot at Oquirrh Mountain, and the view!  You could see 2 temples from there.


The kids across the road from the construction site of the new Orem Temple!  And Kate's portrait.
Portrait of Owen at Mt. Timp, and more flowers. 

And lastly, one more pretty one at Provo City Center.  
We decided to skip Payson since we go there all the time, Saratoga Springs since it was too far out and not finished yet (so it would have been a construction pic like Orem), Lindon because it's just a bare lot so far, and the OG Provo temple, since we had just gone there in the Spring.  So it was a total of 6 temples in Utah County and southern Salt Lake County.  Not bad for a summer afternoon.
