Temple square

Despite the cold weather and slippery roads, Christmas time is my favorite season of the year.  Christmas music, lights everywhere, and the constant reminder of who we celebrate this season for make this season fun and heart-warming.

Temple Square in Salt Lake City has the most beautiful display of Christmas lights and the most stunning life-size nativity scene.  Last Sunday evening Cody and I went to Temple Square with his sister and her beautiful family to see the lights.  We went just in time too, because two days later a huge snow storm came in and the weather dropped a good 20 degrees.


After watching the nativity scene we went inside and spent some time looking at a beautiful statute of Christ.  It was such a wonderful way to kick of this holiday by taking some time to think about the true meaning of Christmas that so often gets forgotten by the hustle and bustle of the season.  I'm so grateful for my wonderful husband and the great man that he is.  And for my family and all the blessings we receive all year-round.
