Temple Square


Another favorite tradition for us is to visit Temple Square and see all the lights. Our friends the Carters were sweet enough to invite us to come along with them. We ate a delicious dinner at The Pantry in the basement of the Lion House. I worked at the Lion House while I attended Weber State some years ago. It was fun to be back there and to enjoy the yummy rolls. After our very good dinner we headed outside in the cold to enjoy all the beautiful colors of the temple grounds.
It was cold, but we all managed to stay warm.
The lights were as pretty as ever. It's amazing how many strands of lights they can string on one tree.
We went inside the Visitors Center to warm up a bit and to see the Christus. While in there, Rylee decided to make some new friends. She went and sat next to these girls and cuddled right into the one girl to get warm. She sat there the entire time we were in there and didn't move. She didn't want to leave either. We have no idea who these girls are, but they loved Rylee. They took pictures too to blog about Rylee. She's such a social bug!!
These pictures were taken from the top of the Joseph Smith Memorial Building. The girls thought it was cool to be up so high looking down on Temple Square.

BEAUTIFUL!!
