Young Women Logan Temple Trip!

We have the best group of young women in our ward! I seriously love them all! As a presidency, we gave them a summer challenge. They had a chart with over 200 spaces to fill in. Every time they went and did baptisms in the Temple, they got to put up a sticker, and if they brought in their own family names, they could put up 2 stickers.  When the chart was full, we promised them a trip to the Logan Temple in Utah. The girls were incredible! So many of them made temple attendance a regular part of their lives. Bailey researched a ton of her own family names, and went to the Temple EVERY SINGLE WEEK! I think she only missed one week, but then made up for it by going twice another week. We had girls visit temples in several other states, and 2 girls did baptisms in another country. Needless to say, it didn't take them long to accomplish their goal. Together they performed over 1000 baptisms!
We took 15 girls to Logan to do baptisms in that beautiful Temple. It was a great day! We kicked it off with breakfast in the church parking lot. They we gathered into cars and headed to Utah. We took pictures of the girls around the Temple grounds, and then went in and did baptisms. When we were done, we went to eat at Chuck a Rama, and then headed home.

Mark and I had Bailey, Madi, and Emily in our car. I love these crazy girls!
Who wouldn't want to ride the gas station dinosaur while wearing dresses?!?
The beautiful Logan Temple!
We got there first, so I took lots of pictures of these beauties on the Temple grounds.

Lunch was great, and we thought after they ate that much, they would fall asleep in the car. Nope! These three were as hyper and crazy as ever on the way home!
We had to stop and take a picture of an Aggie bull for Madi to add to her statue picture collection.
