We drive by our church's Stake Building every morning on the way to daycare and work, Amelia calls it the Temple, and loves to point it out as we drive by. So, last Saturday we headed towards Portland, and decided to take Amelia to the actual Temple. It was a beautiful, sunny and warm day. Amelia was so excited to be there and enjoyed walking around the grounds, looking at the flowers, fountain and reflection pool.
Amelia made friends, who loved to try and tickle her.
Just look at how beautiful and blue the sky was.
The Temple is a good place to contemplate life.

Enjoying the fountain.
I love to see daffodils, the first sign of Spring.
I was amazed that Amelia knew exactly who the statue on top of the Temple was, "Moroni" she told us.
I love the photo below, although it's a little bit blurry. Amelia always walks with her hands on her hips. A two year old with attitude - imagine that!
She loves to walk up and down steps, and since she really didn't want to leave, she circled these steps numerous times.
After spending time at the Temple, we went to Deseret Books and bought a children's Book of Mormon and flash cards of the Temple, which she loves to look at before bed.
What a perfect day out for our family!

Amelia looks so grown up. So good for her to love the temple at such a young age. The flowers look lovely too.
That is such a beautiful temple!! Makes for great pictures of a super cite little girl!
Miss that beautiful temple - what a gorgeous day! Amelia looks like she was having a ball. She sure is getting tall!
