Lifelong Experience

May 29 & 30 was the big Youth Temple Celebration for the new Draper and Oquirrh Mountain Temples. What an amazing experience to be a big part of. I did not expect the spirit to be that strong, but it was, and it was awesome! I know everyone there, member and non-member alike, felt and saw something very special. President Monson said that "those who participate will be blessed beyond what they can comprehend." It was neat to see these youth sacrifice their time for an experience they will never forget (though they didn't realize in the beginning). Here are some pictures of the last moments before our youth went on stage. They were super excited and nailed all the choreography and spacing perfectly. We were the Train Dance (#5, Draper)

Wow! It's bittersweet that it's over. It was great to meet so many people! You guys are awesome and did a great job! Can't wait to get a DVD of the performance.
