I have had an amazing couple of days. I went to the temple to do baptisms for the dead last night with my singles ward. I loved it so much. I haven't been to the temple since I was fifteen. I felt so blessed to have the opportunity to go yesterday. I truly love the gospel and what it does for me. I am so blessed to have a temple so close to where I live that I can go anytime I want. I made a new goal for myself, to go to the temple at least once a month. Maybe more....

 

My little brother, Brennen, loves lights. When we are driving around and he sees any different lights on houses he says "pretty house." As a result, I had to take him to see temple square during Christmas time. We went tonight. I couldn't believe the look on his eyes when he saw the temple all light up and all the sculptures of Christ birth. He had to see "Baby Jesus" at least three times and just stare. I can't believe the spirit in such a small boy. He really taught me a lot tonight by his sheer amazingness of "Baby Jesus." I love him so much and I am so grateful I have him a a brother.
