Last night for family night, We went to the Mesa, AZ temple and picked lemons. You might feel weird about picking lemons off trees on what us Mormon consider holy ground. But several years ago my dad talked with the gardener about it and they even showed us where the tools are to help get them easier =) so My parents have had lemon juice and lemonade all year round ever since!
The kids LOVED it and the quiet peaceful feeling that resides there was so nice to feel! Here are a few pictures of our adventure:
Once we got home, Grandma and Grandpa pulled out the juicer and let the kids juice a bunch of the lemons for "Lemmalaide" as joey calls it. ;)
It was a nice night.

How fun! I would feel a bit weird picking them on temple grounds. At the Brigham City Temple they have peach trees. When we were there I wondered what they did with the peaches. Maybe the same.
