A Trip to the Temple



Every time Jaron and I go to the temple, Olivia gets sad at being left behind. Her plea is so hard to turn down. . ."But, I wanna go to the temple". Well, on Friday I made her wish come true, and we drove to the temple. The Seattle temple has this wonderful little hidden pathway that winds you through a quiet and peaceful little garden. It was so fun to take her there to explore and feel the peace on the beautiful and sacred temple grounds. She loved it. She was happy, and I could tell that she knew this place was different than other places, because she was very reverent, and that's saying something if you know Liv.







I loved the colors of the fall leaves against the backdrop of the white temple walls. So pretty.

I love our temple. I'm glad Liv does too. Really, they are all beautiful. I've been meaning to take J+G to walk around--thanks for reminding me!
