Draper Temple

Last Sunday we had visit from the General Authorities of the church, who spoke to our stake on the importance of not shy away in letting people know what we believe in and who we are.

It was a wonderful talk....he also spoke of the Temples and how important they are. He spoke of how important it is to take advantage of the Draper Open house temple and take our kids there or our non-member friends. He said that we might not have that opportunity again for a long time....and I thought that I want to take my kids there, so they will remember how beautiful and peaceful it is in there.

Troy got off work and I took the kids from school that day and way we went....

And it WAS everything I was hoped for and more. I am so greatful that I was able to listen to the promptings of the spirit and acted upon it. I looked at my children's faces and they were in awe of it's beauty It was symbolic and wounderful to have Troy and the kids in the Celestial Room...

In deed, we can be as family forever!

I would incorage all of you to go before it's dedicated.

Confessions of a not so Betty Crocker

You have all asked me to post this wonderful recipe of the cake. And though I did do a few tricks to it of my own (like the pan that I used and double fudge that I used, and all the drizzle sheezle that I did on the top of the cake....) the recipe itself is extremely simple...Yap, you got it, it is from the BOX...............2 actually. Make first box like instructed then fallow up with the second like instructed. (So I didn't mix two mixes, I just put one on the top of the other with the fudge in between.) Bake it for 45 min. Cool it completely before taking it out, then use extra fudge to put it on top with the sugar powder.

Hope you are not completely disappointed.
