The Goff's Visit Provo

Yesterday Aaron's sister Lisa and her family stopped by to visit us. They were on their way to visit Jared's (Lisa's husband) family in Minorsville. Aaron decided to take the day off, so we all went up to Bridal Veil Falls. We ate lunch up there and then Aaron and Jared took the two older boys, Jordan and Carter, on the hike up to the falls, while Lisa and I stayed at the bottom with Spencer, Aneya, Lincoln, and Ivan.


We let the kids play in the water at the bottom of the falls. Lincoln was so funny, he'd wade in, then come back quickly saying "Toad, toad (cold, cold)" and want to sit in my lap for about two seconds, then he'd get back up and wade right in again.

Later in the afternoon we all went to the Oquirrh Mountain Temple open house.



Here's Aneya and Linc playing in the fountain.


See how Moroni's arm is black in this picture? An usher told us that the day before it had gotten struck with lightening. Apparently most Angel Moronis have a lightening rod built into them. I never knew. But the inside of the temple was absolutely beautiful, and the tour was very informative. Go if you have the chance.
All in all we had a great day with the Goffs. Thanks for stopping by guys, we'll see you again in August!
