Temple Square

Since it was quite busy during Christmas time at Temple Square and we didn't get to see the Christus statue, we promised Nyle we'd go back another time.  Well we finally made it!  Since I work 4 blocks from Temple Square, I had Steve and the boys meet me one day after work.  We then jumped on the train for 2 stops (since Nyles has been begging to ride it), then got off and grabbed a bite to eat at City Creek.  We then walked across the street to Temple Square. 

The boys excited to ride the train!

We went over and touched the temple.  Carter thought the door was pretty neat.

A man was kind enough to take a family picture for us at the temple.

Families are forever!

We then walked around to the other side of Temple Square to see the Christus statue.

The boys loved walking up the ramp to see the Christus statue.  When we got up to the top, both boys went quiet and just stared up at Christ.  It was a powerful, spiritual moment.  We are so thankful for the atonement of Jesus Christ which will allow us to return back to him.  We didn't get to see much more since it was getting late, but it was still a great outing as a family.  It will forever be in my heart.  These are the moments I treasure.
