Early last week, we took Sarah to Salt Lake City to see Temple Square for the first time. We had intended on going during the Christmas holiday, but didn't make it happen with our schedules and still getting settled in to the area at such a crazy time of year. So, we finally made a trip up to see it and she was in awe of the temple and the grounds. The flower gardens are always beautiful and very, very well kempt. Sarah commented often about how beautiful the flowers are. We walked through the visitor's centers and she was fascinated and quiet when we walked to the top floor of the North visitor's center to see the Christus. She just stared and stared and was not lost on the fact that Jesus had nail prints in his hands and feet. She also knows that Mommy and Daddy were married in that very temple just a fence away from the square and visitors centers. She has seen pictures enough that she didn't have to ask "what is that building"? The last photo is from the top of the Conference Building where the Church's worldwide broadcasts are given once every 6 months. Sarah recognized the inside a bit because she has seen it on T.V. The pipe organ got a lot of questions going from her. They do look a bit odd if you have no clue what they are.
It was a lovely day out and we plan to go back to visit again soon. Sarah has mentioned wanting to return already.
