Draper Utah Temple Open House

First of all, what a gorgeous temple, wow. We loved all the mill work and art inside. It was really wonderful to take Jacob (Elise and her crazy schedule couldn't come.) We missed her, but she did get to see our Mt. Timpanogos Temple before it's dedication. This was Jacob's first open house and with pamphlet in hand, he took a great interest in it!

It was a unique opportunity for him to see where important special events happen and with the timing so close to his adoption anniversary it was wonderful to show him how we were sealed together as a family forever. He comprehended more than I thought, and had lots of questions. It was a good day.
