Cherry Holiday Weekend in Utah

Trevor's side of the family has a wonderful tradition of getting together the first weekend in December and traveling down to Salt Lake City. The main attraction is seeing the beautiful lights at Temple Square together. We decided to join Grandma Cherry and all the other Aunts, Uncles, and cousins this past weekend. We stayed with Brandon and Holly of course and had such an awesome time. We love, love, love, hanging out with them and our kids have so much fun playing with the cousins. Uncle Brandon set up the network of computers for all the kids and had fun playing against each other. Holly and I even got to go out shopping for Christmas presents! We met the rest of the Cherry gang at Sizzler for dinner and then off the Temple Square. Our kids have never had an opportunity to walk around at the temple and they were so excited to go. Thought it was very chilly outside, the kids were in awe of the beautiful Christmas lights and warm spirit we felt there. It was wonderful to be in such a beautiful spiritual place with our little family and our extended family. I think our family favorite spot was at the reflection pond. In the center of this huge pond were statues of Joseph, Mary and baby Jesus. In the surrounding water were little clear bubble like bulbs with tiny lights that illuminated the the center. It was gorgeous! I love that the kids were able to experience the sights and feelings of the Savior's birth. I know this will be a weekend they will remember forever.
