We had the opportunity as a family to attend the open house of the Draper Temple before it was dedicated. What a great experience to have with our young, (but growing too quickly) children. It is a beautiful building, and I continue to be amazed at how well the Church does things. I am sure that the many, many people that were able to attend were also awed by its beauty. For me, it was a rewarding experience to share with our children the testimony I have of the temple. I want them to always feel of my love for the temple and the work that is performed there, I want them to know that it truly is a sacred place. 
The kids seemed to really enjoy the beauty and peace of the temple. They all had very cute comments and said the celestial room was their favorite. Tyler, Madison, Jacob and I were also able to attend the dedication at our Stake Center. Mark stayed home with Kaden. It was a beautiful experience also. I think it was a little hard for the boys to sit still for that long, but hopefully they realized the unique opportunity that they had in being a part of this special occasion.

Hi Cheree, it's Jenny Friden. I saw your blog on Jordan's. Hope you don't mind. I had fun catching up on what's been going on with your family lately. The Brigham City 18th ward is still our favorite ward, and we can't believe it's been a year since we had Kaden in our class. If you'd like an invite to our blog, just let me know. My email address is jmojmo24@gmail.com
Take care and tell Kaden hi for us!
We`re so gladthat you were able to go to the open house and dedication. That is, indeed, a wonderful experience.
