We got down early enough on Saturday to take some tours first. We started with the church history museum. (I could have spent all day there).....This is neat though----Adam and I were in different groups for this museum and we each only took 1 picture in the entire museum--and this is the picture that we both took-----it stood out to both of us.......
It says, "What E'er thou art, act well thy part." And it is a magic square on the bottom. (vertically, and horizontally-they add up to 18 in this square)---It just means, whether you're a 2 or a 10- you're important, and needed--and without you, it just doesn't work. We both just loved this.
Then we went to the Assembly Hall. BEAUTIFUL!
Adam was admiring the masonry (naturally)
Out of order, but this is when we first walked outside and saw the Christmas lights, and the lights of the temple. Breathtaking!
Back to the right order---Next we went to the Tabernacle
ok- another picture in front of the temple
Here's the tabernacle---Such an incredible building!!! And it was neat to see the famous organ. This is where the Mormon Tabernacle choir sings every Sunday.
I just couldn't get enough of the lights.
(We texted that picture to the kids who were with Adam's parents, and Aaron says, "They went to Disneyland without us!!!" hahaha---he thought at first that it was fireworks over the castle. ) Silly boy, we wouldn't go to Disneyland without you......or maybe we would. :)And we set up our Christmas tree--and admired those pretty lights!
I love this picture---Preston was just staring and staring at the beautiful lights, and tree. It's so magical to the kids, and I just love that.
I hope everyone is enjoying all the beautiful lights this time of year. And keep in mind the reason we celebrate this wonderful season. Christ is the Light of the World. I am so grateful for my Savior.
