Washington DC Temple Christmas Lights

On Saturday, we decided to go up to the Washington DC Temple to see the Christmas lights. We drove up in the morning to John & Heather's, then in the evening, we all drove over to the temple. To our great joy, it started snowing! The temple and the temple grounds were beautiful. In the Visitor's Center, they have a room filled with different creche' scenes selected from around the world. It was great to see the different nativities. They also had the Reflections of Christ exhibit. What a stunning and powerful photo exhibit! Here's the URL if your interested: http://reflectionsofchrist.org/ . Outside they have a live nativity with readings from the Gospels. We also went to a flute concert. I had the kids dress warmly, and as you can see in one of the pictures, Joshua was so warm and comfortable he fell asleep in the flute concert. He says he was "lulled" to sleep by the flutes.
