Temple Lights

Took all the kids and got them out of the house to see the lights at the Mesa Temple. I am so glad we went. Of course, they didn't want to bring or wear jackets. They actually do have warmer jackets/coats to wear - total Arizona kids. If i was a nicer mom i would have packed their jackets in the van anyway. But i have decided that i am a believer in natural consequences for their actions and really want them to FEEL the consequences. I was a little nice because the jacket Emma is wearing is mine that was left in the van and i took off my sweatshirt from under my coat and gave it to JT.
We had a good time and we were able to again remind the children of the Savior's birth and reason for the season.

Afterwards we went home and drank gourmet hot chocolate..YUM!
