Attendance at the temple has been way down this last week.  My guess is that the holidays and all the activities and special events that come with Christmas are taking people elsewhere.  It’s a good thing there are lots of ordinance workers and temple missionaries so we can keep all of the ordinances going.  Today, I was able to be an endowment patron and take one more name through.  Then I was assigned to be the Endowment Director for the next four sessions.  It was not nearly so intimidating this time and was less stressful also since the numbers were down. 

Glade and I enjoyed a beautiful sunny walk this morning.  We have time on Thursdays to walk early since we don’t leave for the temple until 11:30.

Some of the Christmas lights were on tonight on the temple grounds and all of the Visitor Center lights were on.  The trees and bushes are lit in brilliant colors and the bulbs are set so very close together.  Maybe the rest will be on tomorrow night when we return.  I took a few pictures as we were leaving, but they’re not the best.  I’ll just post one or two anyway since photos are always more fun than reading a lot of “stuff”!  😊  Love and hugs to my awesome family!!
