A little bit of church history

After the Swank's sealing, Brad and I grabbed lunch at In-N-Out. We made a short stop at the South Jordan DI where I found a pair of pants I'm planning on dyeing.

Our original plan was to go check out the new City Creek Center by Temple Square, but by the time we made it up there we realized we had to pay for parking. Since we weren't super committed to that plan, we drove around till we found a 2 hour free parking spot and headed towards Temple Square.

There are a couple museums on the west side of Temple Square so we decided to take a peek at the Museum of Church History and Art.

Does Brad look like he just woke up? Cause he did...

We had a lot of fun looking at the art and learning about the early pioneers. At the exhibit about the saints from England they had an example of the bunks the pioneers. Whole families would occupy one bunk and store their belongings in a bunk above them because that was all that the members could afford.

Brad climbed into one of them. I really hope none of the families were as tall as his!

There are two bunks in this picture.

At this point, Brad started feeling really sleepy. We made it through the first floor and into a room on the second floor before he fell asleep in a chair in the Native American Affairs room. It made me think a little about Larry Echo Hawk.

When Brad woke up {it was only 15 minutes}, it was time to go to the reception. Hopefully this summer we'll be able to make a day trip to SLC.
