I love to see the Temple...

We have lived in Florida for nearly 3 years now and we have never taken the kids to go visit the Temple. This weekend we told them we had a special surprise for them and took them to the Orlando Temple. We had so much fun walking around the Temple grounds enjoying the beautiful flowers, weather, greenery, and water fountains! :) It was a good opportunity to teach Madison and Hyrum, once again, the importance of temples and the happy feeling we get when we are at the Temple. We are so grateful that there is a temple close enough to be able to make a family trip! It was a wonderful day!

The water fountains were a BIG hit with the kids.

The kids enjoyed walking on the grass trying to find the "holy" lizards- since we were at the Temple. Such a fun day to remember!

How fun! We too have never taken our kiddos with us to see the temple. I think we'll have to take them next time because I know Brooklyn would love it!
