Salt Lake City Temple Square

Bruce and I had the chance on Monday night to visit Temple Square.  I was humbled by the work and sacrifice made by so many to construct this amazing building.  To learn more about temple square click here.

Here is my best image of the Salt Lake Temple. 
This photo is taken from the South East side of the temple.


A lot of newly married couples take their pictures in front of these doors.  Bruce and I wanted one and it just so happened that we matched.

Another popular shoot.
This is a photo of the Mormon Tabernacle, click here for more information on that building.We stayed around for the sound demonstration and you can literally hear a pin drop from anywhere in the building.

Date Night in Provo

So here in Utah they have a lot of miniature Golf Places.  Bruce took me to Traflga.
We had a lot of fun.  I have played miniature golf before but forgot how lightly you need to tap the ball into the holes.  The first round Bruce wiped me out but the second round it came down to the last hole.  

View of the Castle when you walk in.
Bruce setting up his putt,  look at the concentration:)

Road Trip to UT 6/16/08 - 6/18/08

This summer Bruce and I headed for Provo, UT.  We are here because I have chosen to go back to BYU for the summer term and finish out my Freshman Year so that I can start working on my Bachelors in General Education.  

Oliver and Bruce were great on the Road Trip.  On the way out we stopped in Knoxville, TN. (4 hours from home).  Then onto Kansas City, KS (11hrs.)  Next stop Cheyenne, WY (8 hrs.) Then finally Provo, UT (6 hours.)  All in all Bruce and I had a
 great time in the car.  We didn't take many photo's but here are a few from the road trip.

ARCHWAY in ST. LOUIS, MO

Oliver's Favorite Place to ride in the car,
on my lap but also on the pillow.
At least one of us was ultra-comfortable:)

This is some of the flooding that we saw in Iowa.
At this point Bruce and I felt very blessed because the next day we heard that there was more flooding and we aren't sure if this road would have been open.
In this photo we are on a two lane highway but only one lane is open because the water is on the other lane.

Finally Provo and our temporary home. 
Bruce and Oliver taking a much needed nap:)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRUCE #43

I took Bruce to Bucci's in Davidson, NC.
It is an Italian restaurant that our friends told us about. 
Bruce said that the food was "stuff-your-cheeks-full" good.

When we got home I presented Bruce with his favorite cake.
It is from a company called Tizzerts.
It is a Chocolate Truffle Cake - YUM YUM!


This is Bruce's B-Day Loot
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRUCE!!!  I LOVE YOU

Kim & Bruce's Trip to Linville Gorge

This past weekend Bruce and I headed up to Linville Gorge.  It was wonderful to be out in the wilderness and together away from technology.
