THE BRIGHAM CITY TEMPLE GROUND BREAKING CEREMONY
JULY 31, 2010
FUTURE SIGHT ACROSS FROM THE BRIGHAM TABERNACLE ON MAIN STREET
THE CROWD OF PEOPLE WAITING FOR THE CEREMONY TO BEGIN. IF YOU LOOK CLOSELY YOU CAN SEE THE TABERNACLE IN THE BACKGROUND AND THE WHITE TENT WHERE THE CEREMONY GUESTS WILL BE SPEAKING.
WE GOT TICKETS TO ATTEND THE GROUND BREAKING FOR THE BOYS COLLIN AND PARKER MARK AND I AND MY SISTER ERIN. IT WAS HOT AND SUNNY AS WE HAD TO BE IN OUR SEATS AN HOUR BEFORE THE PROGRAM WAS TO BEGIN. IT WAS EXCITING TO FINALLY SEE THE PROPHETS ARRIVE: PRESIDENT BOYD K. PACKER, AND RUSSEL M. NELSON.
COLLIN ,ME, PARKER AND MARK. WE ARE VERY BLESSED TO HAVE A TEMPLE BUILT IN OUR HOME TOWN OF BRIGHAM CITY. I REMEMBER WATCHING GENERAL CONFERENCE LAST OCTOBER 2009. I WAS STUNNED AS I HEARD WE WOULD HAVE A TEMPLE HERE IN BRIGHAM. I HAD TO REWIND LIVE TV WITH THE DVR TO MAKE SURE I HEARD HIM RIGHT SURE ENOUGH HE SAID BRIGHAM CITY UTAH WILL BE GETTING A TEMPLE. I ROUNDED UP THE KIDS AND PLAYED IT FOR THEM AGAIN . DID YOU HEAR DID YOU HEAR AS I HAD TEARS DOWN MY FACE. WE ALL LITERALLY JUMPED FOR JOY. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED MARK AT WORK THAT SAT, MORNING TOLD HIM TO LISTEN AS AS I HELD MY CELL PHONE TO THE TV AND PLAYED IT AGAIN. MARK WAS CRYING IN THE PHONE AS WELL.
AFTER THE DEDICATORY PRAYER THEY BROKE GROUND WITH GOLDEN SHOVELS. HERE IS ALL THE STAKE PRESIDENTS TAKING A TURN TO BREAK GROUND.
ERIN, COLLIN, PARKER AND PARKER WAITING JUST BEFORE THE OPENING PRAYER.

Greatpost! I loved the parts about the temple groundbreaking. I am so excited also, especially after seeing the picture of what it will look like. It's phenomenal.
