Festival of Lights

This weekend I had the opportunity to attend The Festival of Lights (which is our equivalent to Temple Square) and the Bell Choir Concert-which included some members of my ward. It was wonderful! The concert was so amazing, I am very impressed that they can be so unified and not lose count. After the concert was over we ventured outside of the warm visitor's center and into the cold where our ward had hot chocolate and cookies waiting for us! The lights were so beautiful, the only thing we were missing was the snow!! Inside of the visitor's center they had numerous Christmas trees (I think one from every stake) decorated and spread throughout for everyone to see. They also had many creches (nativities) from around the world that you could look at. It was really neat to see how many different ways you can make a nativity scene and with so many different materials, this one from New Zealand was one of my favorites; it is made out of shells.
