On the Ninth Day of Christmas...

On the Ninth Day of Christmas my good friends gave to me...
Twinkling lights for all to see!

We went looking at Christmas Lights with the kids last night, a family tradition.  I'm sure many others do the same.  Here's a look at how Temple Square gets done up for the holidays.  I always love seeing them during the First Presidency Broadcast, but I have never been there personally.  Although we saw many lovely displays last night, nothing beats the lights in Temple Square.

Here's a link for making your very own crystal snowflake.  Kids will need help, but it's fun to see the next day.

Or, for fun, make them glow in the dark.  Great fun for hanging in your room for Christmas Eve!
