We originally planned to get down to Salt Lake before Christmas to see the lights, but weather and life had other plans. Good thing they stay up and on till the new year! We boarded the Front Runner train in Ogden on the afternoon of the 28th. Callie and Sam both had a blast sitting on the big chairs and playing uno on the table and watching the outside world fly by. We got to Salt Lake in time to grab some grub at the food court in City Creek and while we were eating we saw the lights turn on. We crossed over to Temple Square and enjoyed looking at the nativities, luminaries and colorful trees and bushes as we worked our way over to the North Visitor's Center. After spending a few minutes inside, we headed back to the station to catch the train back home. It was probably the quickest tour of Temple Square lights I've ever done, but it was pretty much perfect for our little ones. A fun outing together as a family, for sure.

| So excited to be on the train! |

Our attempts at family + light selfies were not
super successful in getting the full effect of the
lights as well as seeing our faces. Just pretend. |
 |
| I love to see the temple. |
 |
| Another try. Another fail-ish. |
 |
| Dad and Sam's side. |
 |
| Mom and Cal's side. |
 |
| As it got a little later, things started to get silly. |
Home again and in bed before 8:00. I call that a win!
