On Saturday we took our Young Women to the open house for the new Draper Temple. Almost all of the girls had never been inside a temple except for baptisms so they were pretty excited. It was so beautiful (of course!) and perfect. One of the others leaders has a friend who worked on the temple and she was telling us how they would have to redo projects numerous times until it was absolutely perfect. I especially loved the woodwork. Apparently the wood is some sort of cherry from Africa. The girls were all really looking forward to seeing the sealing room. They just kept saying "I want to see where you get married!"
I guess it's good that they were excited about getting married in the temple and it gave the leaders a great opportunity to express our own feelings of being married in the temple. They loved the bride room as well and who wouldn't?! They thought it was pretty funny that brides get this big elaborate room to get ready in and the groom gets a stall in the locker room! Anyway, it was a great time and if you have a chance to go to the open house, do it!
