Temple Square Ligths!






This year as every year we go to see the Temple Square Lights. Every year its so exciting to go as a family. We have made this a little tradition and the kids are always waiting patiently for the time in which we go. The lights this year were beautiful, one new thing they did was to put nativity scenes from different parts of the world around the big water fountain infront of the COB (Church office Building). They were very cute and nice. We also went inside the Joseph Smith memorial bldg. to see their big christmas tree. I love Downtown in christmas time with all the lights and all the hustle and bustle of this time of year.

We also got to see the Christus Statue which is one of our favorites to see. The visitor center was very packed and there was a line to go up to see the statue. Jorge and I had a very special moment when we were going up to see Jesus. We said to each other " this is how its going to be when Jesus comes again, there will be a long line so that we can all see him". I got very emotional because I was able to feel the spirit. And I know for a fact that Jesus will come again and that we will be able to see him, touch him and feel of his presence. What a great time of year to talk about our Saviour, Reedemer, Comforter and the only Begotten son of our Heavenly Father. Let us always think of him not only in this time of year but through out the whole entire year so that our lives can be blessed.
