Not what we had planned.....

Last Monday Kevin and I decided to take the kids downtown for Family Home Evening to see the Christmas lights at Temple Square. It was supposed to snow the next few days before Christmas, so we thought we'd better take advantage of our free night. After delivering our neighbor Christmas gifts, we headed downtown. As we were pulling off the freeway into downtown, we turned around and saw this:

Well, who wants to wake up two sleeping kids and make them walk around in the 10 degree weather?? Not me!!! So, we just drove around and enjoyed the lights from our car--which ended up being quite peaceful and relaxing. We even managed to get a few good pictures while waiting at stop lights!



Kevin and I even decided to catch some z's. Not really--we were just being dorks! ( :


I LOVE Temple Square at Christmas time. It is so beautiful and peaceful and helps me get into the Christmas spirit. This year was no exception--sleeping kids or not!

So cute! It was still a great family night and I'll bet they could "feel" how beautiful the temple was.
