Temple Square

A couple of weeks ago we drove to Salt Lake to Temple Square to see the beautiful lights. The whole way up the kids were fighting. Grandma Marilyn tried to distract them by playing a "name that tune" game with Christmas songs. It helped a bit. We walked around and it was beautiful and super freezing. I could feel the chill through my jeans. The next Sunday Tanner bore his testimony in church and in it he mentioned what a great experience that was and how beautiful the temple looked. A woman told me afterwards what a great boy Tanner is. For some reason I felt I had to tell her that I was quite surprised by his comments of the temple because of the rocky beginning we had in the car on the way up. She said, maybe it was because of all the fighting that he could appreciate the beauty and peace of the temple lights. I thought that was a nice thought and probably true.

Brrrrr. It was 19 degrees!

This tree was so huge!!

Ahhhh. Hot chocolate in the Joseph Smith building. Hits the spot!
