Farewell Ogden Temple

We decided that before the Ogden temple was demolished, we should take the kids to see it one more time. Then they would be able to see the progress being made as they rebuild it!
When we told Grandpa Grant what our plans were, he said to make sure that the kids got to touch the temple. Grandpa, Isabel and Ben want you to know that the temple is hard and cold :)
This is the best group shot of the Morgan grandkids. Can't really see Isabel, but at least everyone is looking in the right direction!
Sarah and Ben took turns reaching as high as they could. And yes, Isabel's new past time is sucking on her hair :(
This one had the words on the front of the temple. Ben didn't like to sit too close....
Here are the grandkids on the Yamashita side. This is the best I could get. Nice huh. They look so thrilled. :)
I had to put this one on there. Whenever Ben is looking for something, he puts his hands up to his eyes like binoculars. It cracks me up. This is the first time I caught it on camera.
Here are the Morgans. Sarah, Ari, Adam and Sam. (Only got 3 looking in the right direction.....)
Adam does really good with Sam! Such a good big brother.
The kids ran right out on the bridge when we first got there. They were fascinated that there was money in the water. :)
The wind kept blowing the water from the fountain and Zoey kept telling me that it was raining! Nara is a climber. That wasn't too scary, until she had help from loving cousins! We switched photo locations for the safety of all involved!
Check out Ari's hair! The wind was crazy! Isabel took it upon herself to make sure Zoey was safe. She also was the only one who was allowed to push her :) She likes being the boss.
Here are our cute girls at the temple!
I thought this one was adorable of Sarah! I took our her pacifier and had her say cheese!
Here is Zoey getting rained on by the water! So cute!
Here is Nara. Such a big girl. She wanted to climb and run on everything! Got to love when they get mobile!
Before we left, they all wanted to go on the bridge again. I had them all go out there and point to Angel Moroni. At least they all knew were he was! It is sad that the temple is closing for a time, but it will be neat to see how it progresses!

What darling kids! It'll be neat to see how the temple looks when it's finished.
