#33: Take the Girls to Temple Square to See the Lights

On Dec. 17 we went up to Temple Square with Misty's family and my parents. We decided to ride Trax up there so we didn't have to deal with traffic. The kids were in HEAVEN! They all loved riding on the train!
The lights were beautiful! It was a little on the crowded side because we chose to go up one of the nights that the Tabernacle Choir was doing their Christmas concert, but it wasn't too bad.



The temple was beautiful, as always, and the kids enjoyed looking at the "castle".

We went to see the Christus. It was really crowded, but we managed to sneak up for a picture. This really impacted Holly. She is still talking about Jesus' owies and how we need to pray for him to get better. It was a great teaching moment, and also good to see it through a child's eyes.


Everybody by Trax before we left. It was a great night and I'm so glad that I made the goal so I was motivated to give the girls this experience.

I love Taylors picture and Holly's comment about the Christus statue.

I think that the picture of Holly towards the beginning looks exactly like you when you were little! What a fun night! Thanks for being my motivator! :)
