The Most Beautiful Temple...

... to ever serve the people of the Rocky Mountains will be built in "THE" Gila Valley. That's right... a long awaited temple will soon be in my hometown of Central, AZ. It will be in the heart of the Gila Valley where Pioneers first began to settle. This temple has been prophesied from way back in the day and now, in my day, I get to witness it. Oh how those hard working pioneers must feel about us getting our temple. Not only is it coming but it will be right across the highway from my parents house and you will be able to see it from our backyard. My best friend Lisa's dad got the bid to do all of the concrete work for the temple. What a great blessing and an amazing experience to take part in the "foundation" of our temple. My family had the wonderful priveledge to sit in the freezing cold for over an hour to see the groundbreaking and listen to wonderful testimonies. My dad was able to help out with parking and my uncle and part of his family even came all the way from Wyoming for this specail occasion. How truly we are blessed to have such a wonderful temple be built in our backyard. I cant wait to see the finished project! Below is a "pre-picture" of what it will look like. Isn't it beautiful?

Yes it is so beautiful and so EXCITING! But you did forget to mention that it will be in my backyard too. And I don't have a fence up so you really will be able to see it from my house. So cool...
