Christmas at Temple Square

I am finally getting around to writing about our Christmas vacation. After getting to Utah and getting settled in. We were ready to relax for a nearly 3 week break. We did a lot and saw a lot of friends and relatives and it was great. A few of the fun things we did were going to the Spanish Fork Christmas lights. We went with Chris' Grandma Pendleton and Beckham sat on her lap and just oooo and ahhhhed at the lights, Brooklyn thought it was lots of fun as well. We also went to the Salem Pondtown Christmas where they had floating lit up Christmas trees on the pond and all around, it was really cool.

But the best of all had to be going to see the Christmas lights at temple square with our kids. We hadn't been back to see the lights since Brooklyn was 6 months old. It was so fun to be back and go to the JSMB and walk around the temple and see the beautiful display. Chris and I just stood there and couldn't believe we had gotten married there over 5 years ago!

We went in the visitor center because Brooklyn wanted to see the statue of Jesus and she was so excited and you can tell by her picture in the slide show. Beckham was so cute and we would ask him, "Where's Jesus?" and he would point to Him and smile....precious! We got some great pictures and had a nice time even though it was mighty cold!

Afterwards we headed to Denny's with Chris' parents and sister, her husband and baby girl, Mia, who had turned 1 that day. We had a little party for her. Beckham and her cracked everyone up with their baby fighting at the table, it was a fun night.
