First Temple Trip

The temple is an important place to both Rich and I. We love the peace and calming effect going to the temple brings to our lives. Before we had Ava we tried to go to the temple once a week to help us stayed focused on the important things in life and to renew the peaceful feeling the temple brings. Now that we are blessed with a beautiful baby girl it will be a little bit harder for us to go to the temple. We will probably take turns going for a while until we feel comfortable with a babysitter.

Since the temple is so important to us we wanted to share that with Ava right from the start. We use to go to the temple a lot on Tuesdays, so this past Tuesday we took Ava to walk around the temple grounds. We love the temple on the inside or out. It is a beautiful and peaceful place. It doesn't matter what time of year it is the grounds are always beautiful and filled with colorful flowers. It was a little chilly, but we had a great time showing Ava the Sacramento Temple.

I especially love the one where Lisa is giving Ava a kiss in front of the temple.
