Temple Lights


Tonight we went to the Mesa temple to see the lights. It was beautiful, like always. It was a lot of fun and the boys always seem to enjoy seeing all the colorful lights. We try to count the lights...but we usually stop after 1 bush or 1 tree. :) There are just so many.

It was cold enough to get the coats out. Shocking! I grabbed the boys coats and when we arrived at the temple and had the boys put them on there. I noticed two of the jackets were too small for the boys. That's what I get for having the boys wear their coats 2 times a year. :)
Inside the temple is a gorgeous Christus. Gavin kept wanting to touch it. He kept telling me and his brother's that there was Jesus. It was really cute.
Also inside the temple there is a room full of nativities from all around the world. This one was made in Utah and made out of paper. Folding, twisting, fraying, shredding, and crumpling it to make this beautiful scene.

I miss the Mesa temple in December! Ha, ha, you mentioned smaller jackets. We had the same problem when we moved here and the night time was so windy, it was cold! Jasmine and Ian had to be rushed to Wal-Mart for some new ones.

That's a good shot of you and Scott.
