Draper Open House

On our way to St. George we stopped in Draper to go to the Temple Open House. Gracee was especially excited to get to go inside another temple. We found a stake center at the bottom of the hill where they were starting tours and watched a movie about temples. We then got on a bus that took us up to the temple.
The bus dropped us off right at the door of the white tent that led to the temple. It was a silent tour so we got to walk through at our own leisure. It was SO BEAUTIFUL! We got to a particular room and right as we walked in Gracee said "OH This room is MY FAVORITE!" I knelt down beside her and said "Gracee what room is this?" She very excitedly said "It's the Bride's room!" This is one room she didn't want to leave in a hurry so we stood there for a few minutes and looked in the big mirrors. All the rooms and painting were beautiful.
In the stake center next to the temple they had an open house with cookies and tons of beautiful pictures. Grace and Emme loved this big picture of Christ.
Aside from the Bride's room when we asked Gracee what her favorite part was she said the bus ride...

That is a such a fun memory for your family. It seems like you guys are always gone to Utah. Sorry we missed you at FHE. I was so sad! We'll have to get together soon.
