The Portland Temple

I love the zoom on my camera...joshua was disappointed that his didn't zoom quite as much

She was so excited to finally see a temple...this was her first time to visit one.

She informed me that she was "right 'hind Jesus" and she was very excited.
He did say, "Come, follow me" and that's our goal.

I love this one because she sat right at His feet...I need to hang this one in her room.

He took pictures of everything!

Reflecting...

Wanting to be by Jesus too

On our way home from Washington last weekend, we stopped at the Portland Temple. We were excited to see that they now have a visitor's center...brand new, just opened in February & will be dedicated this summer, I think they said. We took some pictures and stretched our legs. Then we fixed PB&J sandwiches in the parking lot (I know we did that at the Provo Temple in2009 when we did our flying trip to Utah...can't remember if we did that when we stopped at the Portland Temple on our way to Washington in 2009 though, maybe we should start a tradition), changed out of sunday clothes and continued on our way south.
