{I have a lot of stories to share during this upcoming week, so bear with me!}
We took our exchange student, Shinji, up to Temple Square last Sunday to a performance of Music and the Spoken Word.
And guess who else was up in the balcony with us?
You see so many familiar faces when you roam Salt Lake City, I'm telling you. :)
The statue of the Christus is a must-see at Temple Square.
Whenever I enter the room it's placed in, I sit on the cushioned seats, but always find myself rising up to wander closer to it. What it represents to me is so beautiful.
I love whole-family trips. ♥

{Now that was interesting! Made me realize what I need to study next.}
In this photo, we're waiting for Pere to come pick us up.

Chan's a little monkey. :)
{He wasn't supposed to be on that side of the pond... but it made for a great photo!}
Two things Shinji loves: tennis & sightseeing.
We drove up one of the many canyons Utah houses and found life amidst the wintering trees.
And of course Raine came too!
So, they have a statue of Christ like that in the LA temple visitor's center and I was there once and I overheard a missionary talking to an investigator. She sat him in front of the statue and flipped a switch and this voice that was supposed to belong to Christ started speaking, talking about His life and purpose and what not. When it was all over the missionary asked the investigator what he thought as he listened and he said, "I thought: Man, Jesus is muscular!" :)
