I know once again i am slow posting, but at least it gets up sooner or later. On Monday the 22nd, Trav and I met at the Rexburg Temple at 9:45 pm to help our ward clean. 
We were all dressed in white jump suits, and had a great time cleaning until midnight. It was amazing the things you have to do to keep that place looking as amazing as it does. I kept thinking the whole time, ok if my house is suppose to be a temple, then i need to do more then just try and keep a good spirit in it. But I would have to invite the ward over to help me get it to even start looking like the temple. I don't think i vacuumed up more than 3 fuzzes. Trav had to wear this vacuum that straps on to your back, so with his jump suit and vacuum he looked like ghost busters, it was pretty funny. 
We had a great time and it was a great experience to do some service in a place that is continually serving us. The janitorial guys said we could come any time mon-fri at 9:45 pm to help, so if you are looking for some serves there's your ticket, plus it was really good exercise.

I am just going to call you the Ghostbusters! Miss you guys!! How is everything? Hope all is well.
From us is the land of timbuktu!!!
The temple is gorgeous...Brig and I went through it when they were doing the tours. It really was amazing! I love the feeling you get when you're inside, even just looking at it is breathtaking!
i always wondered how they keep it so clean! do the wards sign up for it or just groups of people, or do they just show up?!
What a good idea. Keith and I have cleaned our ward building obviously and you always feel good leaving so I can't imagine what it's like to helpclean the temple. Good for you. You will always be such a shining example to me.
