Visit to the Temple

Sammy loves to see the temple. Everytime we drive past one, he points and says, "Bempo, bempo, bempo."

On Easter Sunday we decided to take Sammy up to the Bountiful Temple. He was so excited when he learned we were going to go, he wanted to go right now! We got some videos of him on the car ride up and walking around the temple. We were especially excited about this visit because of the recent conference talk Sacred Homes, Sacred Temples by Gary E. Stevenson. In this talk he says,

"Even our young children have been encouraged to visit the temple grounds
and touch the temple.5 President Thomas S. Monson once counseled, “As we touch the temple, the temple will touch us.”6

Grandpa even taught Sammy how to say "Moroni" and now every time he sees the temple he'll say "Mo -ro - ni" over and over. (Sammy even has a little crying spell in the video when he realizes he can't see Moroni anymore.)
