temple square

is a must see in utah around the holidays.

my father-in-law steve hadn't been since he was in college (!!!)

that's too long.

after z'tejas at gateway

and delicious scrumptious 

perfect in my belly

cookies from

 bear country

we made our way on over to temple square.

this temple has always been special to  me.

this time of year it has an extra sparkle from all the lights.

i couldn't help but reminisce about mine and daron's wedding day

as i looked on to [what i believe] is

the most beautiful 

building in the world.

a huge thank you to daron's parents

for 

-stocking our fridge

-deep cleaning our house

-bringing dessert back into my life

-and being who you are.

the trip was much too short.

it's weird to think that we won't see them until 

2012.

BRING ON THE NEW YEAR.

(after Christmas of course).
