Temple square

 I really don't like crowds, so when the weather forecast said it was supposed to rain one night, we decided to go down to see the temple lights.  ha ha.  Mostly we went because it hadn't been that cold all day, but also because it really did not look like it was going to rain.  And I figured we could handle a light sprinkle in order to avoid the crowds.  So we headed downtown one Friday night ( I think...) after Rob got home from work. 

 The night started out great.  Everyone was nice and toasty.

 There weren't that many people there (score!) and the temple was beautiful as always.

 The kids were great and we didn't lose any of them.  

 So pretty.  When we got to about this spot (the furthest away from our car) there was a sudden huge gust of freezing cold wind.  Then it started raining ice on us.  It was coming down hard.  Like it was hurting our face.  Like little needles.

 We looked at about 2 nativities and then made a run for it.  Rob stuck Finley in his coat and Riley got in the stroller.  We ran for shelter.

We made it back all wet, but we made it.  Riley was not happy.  She was freezing.  But it made for a fun adventure.  :)
