Every night during our visit to Utah felt like a family party. It was awesome, and just the way we wanted it. The boys, of course, loved playing with their cousins well past their bedtime every night. Our nights were busy so we trekked up north to Temple Square during the day since it was on our 'Utah To-Do' list. For we belong to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, and Temple Square has deep significance to our religion. We wanted our boys to see the temple pictured around our house in person.
We went the Monday after New Year's and had the whole place to ourselves. In fact when we walked into the North Visitors Center with no one insight, I asked the sister missionaries if Temple Square was closed for the holiday.
When Gavin finally realized what exactly we were visiting, he exclaims 'That's where mom and dad got married. You were a princess that day, mom.' And that's when me and my tender heart shed a few tears. I loved everything about my wedding day and yes, I did feel like a princess that day.
Maybe it was the general familial spirit, but Gavin repeatedly ask to hold Logan's hand.
The temple is a place of love and beauty.
As a child of God, I've learned this truth: A family is forever.
