Oakland Temple Lights

One of our favorite things about our new house is how close we live to the temple. It is amazing how quickly we can get there!

Little man loves the temple... and really loved the Christmas lights.


Kevin and I had a little competition to see who could take a better picture with Andrew


Struggling with all his might to get away from me


I think Kev won the competition.

Also listened to a few concerts in the Visitor's Center. Andrew mostly wanted to touch ALL the ball ornaments on the Christmas trees... and then the missionary said he could touch Jesus' toe... so he thought that was pretty cool... and then proceeded to try and climb up higher to sit by Jesus- which is not ok.


We went back outside pretty quickly when we were reminded that Andrew doesn't really know how to walk... he just likes to RUN around everywhere.

Some lady was nice enough to snap a photo for us and Andrew cooperated enough to say "cheese" for her (minus a smile). We were satisfied and called it a night since it had started to rain.


We felt so blessed to be able to visit the temple. There is such a great spirit on the grounds that can't be found anywhere else!

P.S.- Notice anything different about the little man?
