Every year the first weekend in December my family heads to Salt Lake to see the lights at Temple square. This year there was a lot of things happening on the first weekend for most of my family so it was just a small group of us that made it to the lights. My mom and I got to take my sweet nephews Myles and Wesly (Brock and Amy's boys) and we met up with Bre and her family. We got to eat lunch in Layton with Brandt and his Family Saturday afternoon but then they had to head home. It was a CRAZY weekend in Salt lake with a basketball game, a MoTab concert and lots of other things I'm sure. The worst part was finding parking of course but once we got on Temple Sqaure it was so peaceful and beautiful it really put me in the Christmas Spirit. My favorite part was the Reflection pond. This year Mary, Joseph and the Baby Jesus were sitting in the middle of it with floating lights all around and with the relfection of the Temple in the background it was just Beautiful and really brough the true meaning of Christmas to life for me. I'm so grateful for the blessing of the gospel and though the season gets a little crazy and commercialized I'm glad that I have the true meaning to focus on and to cherish the greatest gift ever given. The gift of our Savior and elder brother Jesus Christ. I love this time of year and the relfecting I get to do and the happiness I have because I have the gospel in my life. I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas.
