Dec. 9: LA Temple Lights

Today's Advent bag said to visit the temple and see the lights!  What a great sabbath activity!  We braved the traffic (yes there was still a lot) to go into LA and see the temple!  It is so beautiful and it was great to be able to just throw on a light jacket and walk around without shivering at this time of year!  We could actually enjoy and hang out for awhile outside!  AWESOME!!!

Thanks to the boys holding their flashlights we could keep track of them pretty easy!

 Beautiful icicle lights and the temple spire!


 Can you see my 3 boys?

 So beautiful!

 Another water fountain - had to keep Cash from falling in!

 I love to see the temple!

 Family photo......Ivy lost her boots and was looking at the pretty lights to her side!

 Cash by the nativity!

Although it wasn't a big nativity like at SLC, or AZ for that matter......the feelings I had were still the same!  It is a house of the Lord, a peaceful place, and the spirit of Christmas was in the air!  We ran into friends there and had a great time together as a family thinking about what the true meaning of Christmas is!  Happy Sunday!
