Draper Temple Open House

As a family we went to the Draper Temple Open House last Friday night. It was really very cool. The kids were entranced by how pretty and nice everything was. They were very curious about the decorations and the way each of the various rooms were used. The murals in the ordinance rooms were amazing and they loved that the trees in the paintings were "our trees" that we stare at out our front window. The celestial room was very cool and Andrew had fun staring all the way up at the huge chandelier. For a few weeks, he's been asking me what it would look like if you held two mirrors up to each other...so when he got in the sealing room, he thought it was very cool to look at the reflections going on forever.

It was a very cool experience to get to go there as a family and to talk about temples, god, and eternity with our young kids in such a cool setting. I wish we could go back with them sooner rather than later. It was a great time.
