Our Family had the opportunity to spend Valentine's night at the Draper Temple open house. We've had the opportunity to watch the temple as it was under construction, and it is very exciting to see it completed.
Brynn really enjoyed looking through all the rooms, and finding them on our "map" that was given to us as the open house guide (really a pamphlet about several of the rooms). Brooke did well, all things considered, although I'm sure she didn't realize exactly the significance of what was going on.
The temple is of course beautiful. There is definitely a very serene and comforting spirit in the temple.
Brynn's favorite rooms were the Ordinance Rooms, which have beautiful murals painted on the walls of Mountain scenes and animals. She also liked the Celestial room, because "it had a really cool light!" Brooke also liked the animals in the Ordinance Rooms, and the mirrors in the Sealing Room.
Brynn was also fascinated by the stained glass windows, which she could see from outside the of the Temple as well.
My favorite part was spending time with my family, in a place that binds families for eternity.

I must admit that although I am happy to live in God's country, I am envious of your proximity to a temple. I can't imagine how cool it would be to go to the temple in the same amount of time it would take to go to a movie.
