I Love to see the Temple

Our primary had the opportunity to visit the Washington D.C. Temple for a stake primary activity! We had a great turn out from our ward and the kids really enjoyed going to the temple and feeling the spirit that comes from being so close to such a sacred building!

What an awesome picture of the Temple from the road. Such a great experience for the children to remember. You all look so good. As I look at the last picture of the primary children with the Temple in the back of them, I see Ethan (Stewart) Ashton (Jerry) and Lily (my Robing), I can't help but live in the past. Love to you all. What a great experience. Love the music too.

How fun. The DC temple really is such a beautiful temple. I love how it just comes out of nowhere when you are driving on the freeway. So awesome.

I love how serious Ethan's face is in one of the pic's. Impressions are lasting to these children as they see and visit this Temple.

What? I never left a comment? :)
What a fun trip! The only thing that would have made it better is if we could have done a session. But....it was such a great trip!
Love ALL the pictures! You seriously have the cutest kids ever!
