Draper Temple

This morning we woke up bright and early, we got dressed in our church cloths, skipped Saturday morning cartoons and drove up to the Draper Temple Open House. The four of us (we left Jack home with Grandma Liston, we didn't think he would enjoy it) got to the church where we were to park and watch a video about the temple at 9am. Eliza saw the big travel buses and was so excited. She said,"I've never been on a bus before!" After the video we took the exciting bus ride to the temple(Eliza said,"this is like a roller coaster ride). The temple was gorgeous. The colors they choose were of course beautiful. It was so fun to take the kids into the temple with us. They loved the Celestial room with it's enormous chandelier and the sealing room with the mirrors that look on forever. We saw the bride's room and I told Eliza that this is where she will be able to get ready to be married someday. Aiden said, "What about the boys?" and Russell said, "We get the locker room." :) It was really neat. I am so glad that we got tickets to attend. After the tour we went into the church that was next door for a cookie and water. Then back on the bus to our car. They had everything so well organized. Everybody who can should take the opportunity to go! In my opinion it was better than Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle cartoons, but don't ask Aiden, I have a feeling that we might have different opinions!
