Memorial and Temple


This is where we headed on our Sunday afternoon.

Location can be different, architecture can change but the feeling you experience being near the temple is always the same peaceful feeling.

This is as good as we can get them to cooperate

Try as we might, we just couldn't get Josh to look at the camera

The memorial really was a somber experience. Especially seeing all the different memorabilia left on the fence. Seeing little binkies and booties or little toys just hit home. It is sad to think that because some one was mad at the government they killed innocent men and women and children. I just don't get how someone could take someone's life. It made us discuss the afterlife and how Timothy McVeigh is going to outer darkness. If he thought life was miserable down here, he's seen nothing yet. I just don't get it. For me, it was also a good reminder that life is fragile and it can be taken in a blink of an eye.
