Christmas at Temple Square

Salt Lake City is arguably the most beautiful city in the country.

With a mild winter temperatures, it was a great year to visit Salt Lake City.



On one side of the temple is a smaller reflecting pool showing the beautiful floating lamps.




After watching Elf, Joshua had to try running around the revolving doors.

On top of the Joseph Smith memorial building is a great view of the SLC temple.


It is always a must do to visit the North Visitors' Center with a replica of The Christus, a statue of Jesus Christ by Danish sculptor Bertel Thorvaldsen.



Being short on time, we weren't able to see everything. We walked past the Conference Center but we had a small tour of the new Church Library.

Temple Square was festive everywhere. As we were leaving the lights were being turned on.


The Beehive House was home to Brigham Young when he was President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

It was interesting to see the rooms as they were decorated to appear as they would have during Brigham Young's life.

It was a sweet feeling to hear the Sister missionaries share their testimonies of family.
Of course, we weren't able to see everything so we'll be going back on our next trip to Utah.
