The Friday before Christmas we met up with Lance's family at the Lion House for an early dinner. It was very tasty, especially the banana cream pie. I'm glad that Grandma B. insisted that we all got dessert, because it was the best part of the meal. After dinner we went to see the Joseph Smith movie at the Joseph Memorial Building. As everyone has said before me, the movie was incredible. Watching the movie just increased my love for the prophet Joseph Smith and my gratitude for what the early Saints went through so that we could have so many of the blessings we enjoy today. When the movie was over we walked around temple square to look at the navities and lights. For me the highlight of the night is when we walked into the visitors center and I ran into two of my good friends that are serving on Temple Square. One of the sisters is from Thailand. I met her when I was asked to translate at the MTC for her. I was also able to translate for her when she went through the temple for the first time. That was such a special day for both of us. It was especially scary for me because for some reason they didn't have part of the script translated and I had to do my best to translate. I also saw my friend Christie, which was equally exciting. I just love going to Temple Square, I always have such a great experience there.
