Saratoga Springs Temple

The Saratoga Springs Temple was my 53rd Temple

James and I attended the Saratoga Springs Temple on my 49th birthday in 2023!  It is such a beautiful temple in a beautiful area of Utah.  I have a couple favorite things about this temple.  One is the purple chairs in the Celestial room.  I sat in a chair and my feet were well above the ground.  My husband laughed at me as I sat and swung my legs, looking like a little kid in one of the large purple chairs in the Celestial room.  I also loved the stained glass in the windows, and how they make rainbows on the walls inside the temple.  Perhaps we were there at just the right time to see this beautiful view on the white walls of the temple as we walked to our endowment room.  I love the views from outside the temple as well, looking out at the beautiful and well kept city where the temple resides.  While we were there, a large family gathered for photos after a wedding on the front lawn.  It made me happy to see them in front of the temple, everyone so happy to be there!  Such a beautiful and sacred place!
