Temple lights



It is amazing how much fun you can have walking around looking at Christmas lights in december when it isn't below freezing outside. The lights were great-but Rachel's favorite part was the manger. Her favorite song is "Away in the manger" and she requests it every night as one of her bedtime songs. Yesterday while we were out doing some Christmas shopping, she kept singing it over...and over...and over to herself, mind you-while she claims it was to herself--there were many times I had to tell her to stop yelling the words. So cute. Every year she is drawn to the manger. Her baby doll (even though it is a girl with a pony tail of hair) is transformed into baby Jesus-during all of her little playtime--and not just on Christmas Eve. I am glad that He is so important to her.
