One Saturday in Janurary

Hello!
So today we decided to make a trip down to Mesa and go to the temple. It was so much fun but when your used to temples with steeples on them and they are pretty noticeable you get pretty confused. The Mesa temple is gorgeous don't get me wrong but it was pretty hard to find and we drove around it a couple times before we decided that it was the temple.
So after the temple we went to go see my great great great grandfathers house. His name was Joseph Ellis Johnson. He was a pretty cool guy and did LOTS of things. He went to Carthage with Joseph Smith and Joseph Smith married my Grandfather and his first wife. The pictures of his house are last. (There are out of order)
Next to the house there is a natural history museum and outside of it were these dinosaurs made out of car engine parts. Stefen of course was very enthralled with it.
After that we went to lunch with Marji Snider who used to babysit me when I was younger. We walked up and down the street looking for a specific restaurant but we decided it closed and chose a different place.
We then went to the BIGGEST cemetery I have EVER seen in my life. Seriously this thing is like a whole city block big! My great great great grandfather is buried there. Unfortunately because of the vast size of this thing we couldn't find the grave and no one was working for me to ask where it was. So next month when we go to the temple we will try again and I will call ahead of time to find the exact spot.
We then came home and went swimming. Yes in sunny Arizona at the end of January you can go swimming. It was fun. Then we watch some fun home videos which were hysterical beyond believe. (I will try to figure out how to upload those later) As I am writing this blog Stefen calls me into the kitchen and there he is making potato chips with no clue as to what he is doing. So that was our day today!
