What could be more important than this?

This is probably one of the neatest places to be with family. At the Living Christ display at Temple Square in Salt Lake City. You walk up a long twirl staircase and there is Christ with all the galaxy painted on the walls and ceiling. It is beautiful!

The pictures aren’t the greatest, as you can tell I used my phone. But you can see here Adam & Eve and Trace. He really liked the guard ropes! Although I’m not sure they did much good. ;-)

Lisa and I came to temple square once while we were dating just for something to do. It is huge and has many videos, displays, and museums and things that visitors can walk around and see.

We were on a date

About 3 years ago and happened to go into the “Families are Forever” display. It is AWESOME! We started out in a small room where it showed a video of a young couple who had a couple kids .

Then you go to the next room, and it progresses a few years into their life. They were older now and were talking with their parents (The Grandparents of their kids) about how much love they had for them and how their Grandparents still loved each other. Apparently, even after being married 40+ years, people still want to be together! How great it is to know that they can be together forever.

The next room, years later, was after the Grandpa had died and they were talking with the mom (or Grandma) about how much she missed her husband. She talked about how much she loved him and he loved her. It really made me think of all the blessings and things I have in this world,

what could possibly be a greater blessing than knowing that we can live with those we love as a couple, man and wife, forever after this life? Awesome is an underestimate.

The next room, years later. Both Grandma and Grandpa we had passed on and only their kids and grandkids were left talking about them. The talked about the peace they felt in knowing that they would see them again and the confidence and faith they had that and they knew

they would see them again after this life.

Anyway, Lisa and I went through this display when we were dating and noW…

Here we went through it again almost 3 years later,

with 2 kids and it was just as awesome. What was really neat was to think about how we too are progressing along life's journey together and more importantly how important our eternal marriage is.

That we can be together as a family forever.

There really isn’t anything in this world that can compare to this gift a loving Father in Heaven gives to be able to be with our families.

It was just an hour of our trip, but well worth it!

Here, Trace and Lisa are posing in front of the conference center. Trace was really good but like usual, he was ready for a nap by the time we were done. ;-)
