Just to add to the day, Rick & I went for a drive to discover Deseret Book and to find the Temple. We had a lovely mooch around the shop. We went back tonight to the Temple to do a session. Its a beautiful Temple, a bit larger than Sydney but with a similar layout, many more rooms! A session is going every half an hour every day and seems very busy! It was really lovely to go at Christmas time and focus on the true meaning of Christmas which is the birth of our Saviour and for Him making the way possible for us all to be able to return to our Heavenly Father once more.
It is also a wonderful time to ponder, think of and pray for my family as we are all so far apart this year. The Temple brings us close again after all, 'Families are Forever..' We are especially blest this year to share Elder Bennallack's experiences in the MTC. We hope this truely is a sacred Christmas for you Jonathon.
It is not forcast to snow on Christmas, but we have booked a toboggan session at Copper Mountain on Christmas Day at lunchtime since there is just the four of us. This should be a fun introduction to the snow. We will be more adventurous later, apparently the snow is quite heavy until about March..
Here are a couple of woeful pics of the Christmas lights as we drove through the neighbourhood, but an ok one of the Temple.. (I do love how even the trees and shrubbery are lit up too!)
