Temple Lights

On Monday we went to the Oakland Temple to see all the lights and hear Christmas music. Gabriel had so much fun running up and down the lit hill to each water fountain (and trying to duck under the lights to play in the water in between them).
Ephraim enjoyed all the lights too! And the people. Here he is waving to the camera with dad.
Gabriel had a runny nose last weekend. This week Ephraim caught it, and mom and dad are fighting it off.
Yum, peas and goldfish crackers! (dad likes the pea on the chin the best)
Gabriel colors in a Christmas tree that mom drew for him. We are counting down the days until we get to see family. And praying that everyone is well when the time comes.

Thank you so much for putting up those pictures of the Temple. They brought tears to my eyes, and made me so homesick! :) Love you guys!!!

I love Christmas lights, and the ones at the Temple are better than any other display. Must be the sweet spirit felt on the Temple grounds. So glad you were able to take the boys to see the lights.

This will be our first year with no trip to the Temple lights. The Mesa temple always did it up big, but the Temple here in Denver is smaller and they do not do a light display.

The pea on the chin looks like his own beauty mark. (lol)

Hopefully everyone will be healthy for the family get together. Enjoy your Christmas.

Much love,
Grandma and Grandpa,
and Uncle Tony
