Last Saturday The Primary Presidency in our ward arranged to take all the primary children to the Temple for Primary Activity Day. Adisynn was so excited. About a week before, she would wake up every morning and want to know if THIS was the day she was going to the Temple. Well, Saturday finally came and we got her ready to go, prepared a sack lunch for her (they were providing drinks and dessert) and got her to the church by 9:00 A.M (thats early for me) :(

The theme was "LET THE CHILDREN TOUCH THE TEMPLE SO THE TEMPLE CAN TOUCH THEM." They had prepared booklets for each child to carry with them on their little journey. They took pictures of different places around the Temple and wanted the children to find them and then do the activities prepared for them in their books. Some of the places were Angel Moroni, United States Flag, Fountains, The Echo Tree, The Cornerstone-The Las Vegas Temple was dedicated on December 16,1989 by President Ezra Taft Benson. The Star, Sun Stone and Moonstone. Our Bishop, Bishop Bell and his wife work at the Temple on Saturdays and they came out in their white Temple clothes to talk to the children and take them for a tour around the foyer.

I know it touched Adisynn and only being 3 years old I think she will always remember the trip to the Temple. Especially the ride up there with her friends and neighbors who live 2 houses down, Jamie and Erica Stewart and how Sis. Stewart would say ROCK OUT!!!!! (hope I quoted you right Leslie) I think they were listening to Primary Songs that the Presidency prepared for each child so they could listen and learn the songs quicker for the program while driving around in their car. How awesome is that??

We went to the mall that afternoon and Adisynn wanted to buy a dress that was all white. We found a cute one from The Gap and she wore it to church the next day. As I was doing her hair, sitting in the sink looking in the mirror, she jumped up and said, "Mom look,I'm so beautiful, I look like Heaven." That she did!

I just want to thank those ladies for an awesome job they did. They gave a lot of their time and effort to make this day special to each one of those children and I am eternally grateful.
