Then on Tuesday we went to the Oquirrh Mountain Temple open house with the family. This was a full-filling experience. The LDS church announced the temple construction right after we purchased our house. Then we got to watch the temple being built over the last 2 years from grading, to foundation, to completion.
The four of us went on a tour last week. So it was now time to go again, this time with the whole family.
Then on Wednesday, we drove down to Manti for the Mormon Miracle Pageant. 
On the ride down, Rayce, Haven & Mia had a blast goofing around in the backseat. One of the things they kept doing was pointing to ever abandoned or broken house, and calling it "haunted".
There were a lot of people in attendance. We actually scored some pretty good seats. The mosquitoes were in full force too. Everyone walked away with at least 5 bites. Mia had probably 15.
Mia and Rayce didn't quite make it through the end of the performances. Haven and Ryder not only stayed up through the whole performance, they were awake on the rides home too(1:00AM).
Then last night we went to Vivian Park in Provo Canyon for a picnic. It was a very cool and beautiful night. The kids had a blast, and this time we remembered the bug spray. 
After we ate dinner, I took Sean, James, and Kiki on a little hiking adventure. The most frustrating part was that the altitude was affecting their listening and understanding capabilities. I told them to stay close to me, but they took off up the mountain.
They had fun even though J and Kiki were wearing flip-flops.
We actually got pretty high. Next time we'll go a little farther up, but we need to start earlier so we don't get caught in the dark.
Keli, J & Kiki did a little fishing. J caught a rainbow trout. Grandpa said that we'll probably come back here a few more times this summer, so I need to get mine and Sean's fishing license.
Told you we had a busy week!
