The Ice Cream Truck Found Us

When we lived in Utah, the kids would listen for the sound of the ice cream truck. Suddenly it found us here too much to the delight of all.

You've never seen the kids run faster! Here they pose with their choices. I was hoping the Schwann's truck could just keep being our ice cream truck. Sadly, I missed it today with soccer practice which has now begun.

See the light, shine the light!

We've had rain almost every day for weeks now.  The sky can be dramatic, especially as it clears after a storm or is thinking of storming again!   On a recent walk I was struck by the green grass and blue sky framing the white temple.  

I like how it looks like a green carpet (anybody remember the outdoor green carpet?) or 3 stripes of different colored jello in a glass although I'm not sure how blueberry and lime jello tastes together.  So I grabbed my camera and drove back to those spots and quickly snapped a bunch of photos within about a 10 minute window.  

The photos start from the tip of the temple to partial, then most of it's revealed and finally the full temple.  I added the song "The Light" by April Meservy performed on the 2004-2006 EFY CD, which I think fits well -- "See the light, shine the light . . ."

   

I hope you enjoy seeing these temple photos and "the light".
