Christmas Lights~ A tradition

Within a day apart these are the gorgeous views we beheld. It was a delight for the eyes and especially wonderful to get to experience it with those we love. This year we were able to experience the Christmas spirit with hearing Thomas Heaps sing at the Assembly hall on temple square and then walking around Salt Lake's temple square to view all the beautiful lights. Emily kept us on track, and we had to do it in a hurry because mom froze, but we got it all in and came home and warmed up with hot chocolate.Upon arriving back to Arizona we went to see the Mesa temple lights and nativities. It is a family favorite, in fact I think this was the fourth time this year for the girls. Quite a contrast, it was such a warm night that we ate our Mesa frozen yogurt while walking around the grounds. We love the display of nativities from all around the world in the visitor center! I love these two temples, they have a special place in my heart and always bring the Christmas Spirit. I feel so blessed that we got to experience both temple lights this year.
