I have been wanting to take the girls to temple square to look at the lights. They have never seen them. Last year we were in Utah but we were busy moving into our house. (By the way we have been here 1 year as of yesterday!) So we went on Saturday night, and many things went wrong. First of all it hasn't really snowed much this year, except the night we decide to drive into SLC. It was snowing and the freeways were pretty bad. We passed several accidents. We finally get to Salt Lake and they are doing construction on the road that we decided to take. Nate grew up in a small town and does not like big cities or traffic, so this was not his idea of a good time. After what seemed like forever, we finally find a place to park and we start walking toward temple square. Not only was is snowing but it was FREEZING! The girls were cold and tired, because by this time it was way past their bed time.
The lights on temple square were very pretty and it was nice to see them, but we were all a bit grumpy. As you can see from the picture they were not to excited to take a picture.
We walked around and looked at the lights. Even though we were all grumpy it was amazing to see the temple. It was beautiful, and I love the feeling of being on the temple grounds. I just hope that my girls felt some of it while they were there.
When we got home Nate said that was the last time we were doing that. Hopefully by next year we will have forgotten.

Next time drive up into Sandy & take TRAX's the rest of the way down. It takes a litlle longer then driving but is worth it. It is fun for the girls & you don't have to deal with traffic. Glad you made it to see the pretty lights.
I'm jelous that you already went. I love being there! Hopefully next year will be better!
