Provo City Center Temple

We went to the open house for the new Temple in Provo on Friday.  We drive by this temple a lot, so I was excited to go in and see it. 

It did not disappoint.  It was gorgeous.  

The boys both wanted to wear their suits.  I probably would have put them in something more casual, but I was impressed that they wanted to wear their suits to the temple.  I'm glad they hold a reverence and respect for the temple.  While we were walking through Wyatt was saying how nice it was and he turned to Jonah and said, "I will never play basketball in here, never!"

This is the sixth temple open house that Caitlyn and Jonah have been to.  That is amazing to think about, temples really are dotting the earth like it was prophesied that they would.

Caitlyn loved looking at everything and she got excited when I told her that in a little over a year, we would be able to come back to this temple together! She kept telling all of the volunteers that she liked their dress or tie, she is such a sweet girl.

Jonah is a boy of few words, but he was impressed with the woodwork in the temple.

We had to wait in long lines, but they moved quickly.  The kids were great sports about it.  Wyatt likes the movie we watched before we went in the temple.

Hallee remembered the last open house so she knew what to expect.  She did great and liked looking at the pretty stained-glass windows.

I'm so grateful for these opportunities to take our kids to the temple.  I know they feel the Spirit that is there and it helps them understand why the Temple is so important.  We are excited to go to this temple when it opens.
