We decided to take a trip to Utah as a family in early December. We don't travel anywhere besides the Grandpa's and Grandma's very often, so this was so fun for us. We were able to visit our good friends Anthony and April and his parents which was so nice and then Bryan's cousin Brad and his wife Kera. Besides having to change our alternator on the trip and a few other setbacks, it was great. We visited a lot of temples and took pictures of them and the kids were so excited to see the "Big Temple" or the Salt Lake Temple. It's been awhile since I was able to walk around and enjoy the Salt Lake Temple, and I just can't believe the beauty of it. It is beautiful from every single angle. I love the little details, from the doorknobs to clouds, suns, moons, and stars carved into it. The missionaries on the grounds were so kind to us and let us go to the top of the church office building to take pictures from up there. The kids loved the elevator and had fun stomping in the snow at the top of the building. I thought they would be a little more impressed with the view but Case was mostly excited that he could see a garbage truck from clear up there. Haha. He has good eyes! I was so excited with the pictures from our trip and loved feeling the peace on the different temple grounds. You can see the pictures of the temples on my Design Blog.
