Christmas at the Temple

We come from Washington, DC where there is a month long Festival of Lights celebration at the temple which is featured as a major attraction in the Washington Post and other area papers. This little nativity scene was placed at the bottom of the steps going up to the temple where not very many people would see it. There was a brief opening ceremony. You can read about the event at mormonit.fi
There has been some local interest in viewing it. A group of children from a local daycare facility came and stayed for quite awhile. It is actually the only outdoor "seimi" that we've seen here in Finland. And what you see in this picture is the most snow we've had so far. Unbelievable.
