Temple lights
For FHE, we went out to dinner and then went to see the Temple lights. It was a darn cold night for St. George so we broke out the coats and hats. We had a good time walking around and seeing the lights and nativity. We sat for a few quiet minutes in front of the statue of Christ at the vistor's center and pointed out the wounds in the hands and feet to our kids. Abby looked at the statue for a few minutes and then said "he loves me." Brought tears to my eyes. I said "he sure does."
Abby love the temple. Whenever we drive around town, she looks for it. As soon as she sees it, she yells "there's the temple." It never gets old to her. We let Abby get off the sidewalk and go touch the temple. She thought that was awesome.


On our way home, we drove by a house that a friend told me about. She said it's the best decorated house in town and has been dubbed "the Christmas house." When we turned the corner, there was a collective GASP in the car! It was amazing. The picture couldn't possibly do it justice. It was decorated 360 degrees around the house, both sides and back. The roof had a full size santa sleigh with 9 reindeer with moving heads! In front there was a huge nativity and a countdown calendar to Christmas. We hear there were 500,000 lights. Amazing. Cant' wait to see it again next year. When we got home, we had yummy hot chocolate.

What a great idea for FHE. I can't believe those lights on that house. I can't imagine what their electric bill is for that month! And I can't believe you guys are bundled up so much! You live in St. George for Heaven's sakes!
