Draper Temple Openhouse



On Thursday we went with my sisters to the openhouse of the Draper Temple. They were very well organized, but we still had a little bit of a wait and the kids were not in the mood to wait at all.

They loved the bus ride to the temple and they did very well during the walk-through, until we got to the sealing room. In this room we had to sit and listen to a couple speak to us. Josh did not want to be quiet and was grumpy. Emily kept complaining that she couldn't see. Laurie decided to fall off the chair and scream very loudly.

They also did very well when we went to the church to have cookies and water. Then they were so bad while waiting for the bus to take us back to our van. By the time we got home two of the three were asleep.

Overall it was a great experience. Emily loved the Celestial Room, she calls it "The Prettiest Room". They may have whined a lot, but it did leave and impression that they may remember for a long time. It is a beautiful temple.

Kids can be so unpredictable. We are excited to take our girls there too. I think they will really enjoy it. Hopefully Mayzie won't be in a climbing mood :)
