Church History Museum

We went and stayed for a couple of days in Salt Lake this week, Darren had to get his truck worked on so we met him there. We love staying at the hotels at the airport because it is less crowded and we have never been disappointed with our rooms. The first night we stayed at the Hilton-Kennedy and I went and ate supper in the restaraunt and it was about one of the best meals ever, afterwards of course we swam and swam and swam and when Darren arrived we swam some more. The next day we went to breakfast, shopping at the gateway (Justice and Sur La Table) are the greatest stores on earth and then went to the Children's Discovery Center. I have to say, Kennedy is to old for the Discovery Center so that was a bust. We then decided to do a little church history museum tour and it was incredible. We had so much fun there-something there for everyone. Darren and I loved the old letters written from the prophets and other church authorities and it was incredible to see the items that crossed the plains and learn the history behind them. The death masks of the Prophet Joseph Smith and Hryum were in the museum, so that is what Darren and Kennedy are standing in front of. Also Kennedy got to lay in a bunk bed that was a replica of one that was on a ship from England. Kennedy was able to draw and color a picture downstaris that is displayed on their tv and then upstairs the children got to try tons of different things from dancing to a toritlla toss. We had a wonderful time. Later that night we headed back out to the Hyatt and ate pizza, swam and watched movies. Thanks Darren for the little get away!
