Frankfurt Temple

The family I visited in Frankfurt, Germany, only lived about 20 minutes away from the Frankfurt LDS Temple. One day we drove over to visit the temple, and it was definitely different than others I have been too. It was literally right in off some street with a lot of shops and apartments, and was pretty small. However, it was still extremely beautiful. I was definitely glad to see another temple--there are all unique in some way.

Missionaries on the temple grounds!

Landon was pretty content hanging out in the stroller as we admired the temple!

The temple is small, and kind of oddly shaped, so it was really hard to get a picture of the whole thing at once. Also, Moroni is separate from the temple, which was interesting.

Every temple always has beautiful landscaping. The temple in general is just a really beautiful and peaceful place.

All of the Shields' kids. Aubrey (the oldest) has actually gone to do baptisms with the youth in Frankfurt, which is really neat!

Back at home I live about an hour and a half away from the Washington D.C. temple, which is beautiful. As part of our church's General Conference every year, leaders announce new temples, and there are new ones being built all over the world. Hopefully I'll be able to see a few more of them throughout my life.
