For Family Home Evening this week, we got to do something new and exciting for our girls. We got tickets to go to the new Draper Temple open house tour. We met up at an LDS church where we first watched a video about the temples and what they mean to our church. Then we loaded up the tour buses that would take us up the hill to the *Temple.*

My Uncle Rett and Aunt Annette got the tickets for us, and my cousins Coralee & Corey, Alan & Shannon, Rob & Dawn, Randall & Katie, and all their children were there along with my parents and our little family. I LOVE MY FAMILY! I always think everything is so much better when lots of family is around.
Then we were guided back into a nearby church to enjoy

It was so wonderful to walk through the Temple before its dedication, and let our children catch a glimpse of how beautiful and special it is.
To finish up the night, Trev and I drove back down to Provo to be with his family so we could celebrate
