We managed to only bring one of my mittens and one of Hunter's gloves. Josh was nice enough to share his with me. I felt like the Seinfeld "man-hands" lady the whole night.
The gates to the temple grounds were open last night. It is interesting to me that there a no lights inside these grounds, but there were just as many people. The boys wanted a picture.
I love all of these lights. I was only sad this year that they didn't do the "red" tree. It is a huge pine tree all done in bright red lights. It is really striking.
Our double stroller is so huge! Usually we opt not to take it with us, but when there are so many people I wanted to make sure we could keep our kids close. It seems that everyone sees us coming and thinks they should go in front of us before we come, so I ended up waiting for the whole of temple square to run in front of me the entire night...what would they do if I wasn't so polite and just rammed them! Okay just a fantasy.......
Palmer insisted on getting a picture on front of the shepherds. Later that night Lincoln was looking at them and he said "Dad there is a sheep with long ears!" Josh explained to him that was because it was a donkey. Then he said "Dad I see a donkey with long ears!" You had to be there, but it was so cute.
How beautiful is that!?
There are nativities from different countries all over as well. So cute!
This is what is in the middle of the reflecting pool this year. Every year they come up with the neatest stuff to make Temple Square that much more of an experience.
Pushing our double stroller up that hill is no easy task! Go my big strong Josh.

Thanks Em for the update! your pictures are cute as always! We need to get together soon!
Your family is so cute :)We need to have you guys over for dinner one of these nights.
I am right there with you about the HUGE red Pine Tree. We were really sad about that. Malisia even commented on that when we went. Weird that we went the same day but never saw you guys . . . probably because there are so many people!
I love the Christmas Decor and decorations! You guys are so classy and tasteful! I love it!
Great picture of all of you in front of the Temple. What a cute family!
I love your hat! Your boys are so lucky to have a mom that takes them so many fun places AND documents it through photos while she's at it!
P.S. Your Christmas decorations look great!
