Draper Temple Open House

The kids and I had a chance this weekend to attend the newest temple in Utah, the Draper Temple. It was such a fun and memorable experience. It also made me remember just how blessed we are to live in a country where we have religious freedom. It is wonderful that there are places of refuge from the world so close to us. Before we moved to Idaho, we literally lived just down the hill from this newely constructed temple.



From left to right: Little-ist sister, Brooke, one of the middle-ies sisters, Courtney, babies Clay, Court's hubby, Adam, Morgan, cousin Areianne(kneeling), Me and James-ey.

My sister Courtney's husband, Adam thought it would be a crying shame not to take a photo of us all on the diagonal. He's must know something about the eternities that has evaded the rest of us. Thanks for the super-fun time, Adam and for being such an awesome uncle to the boys. It would have been so sad for us sisters to get together and not be able to experience Twilight again!!!

Check out the Construction Photos of the temple sight. It's amazing how quickly a building of this size and magnitude can be constructed.

See, the diagonal angle adds a flair of je ne sais quoi to the photo composition! Ha ha.
