A Special Saturday

On Saturday we had the wonderful opportunity to see our friends Shiloh and Jesse go through the temple for the first time and then be sealed to each other and their darling kids. It was such a spiritual experience to take part in and I am so glad I was able to be a part of their special day. I can't even describe in words the feelings I felt through out the time in the temple yesterday. I will always remember the children coming into the sealing room and how strong that spirit was. I was so overwhelmed by the spirit and will hold that dear in my heart. I didn't want to elave teh temple and the spiritual feeling I felt yesterday. It really manifested to me the importance of following the gospel and doing what we should to be able to return to our Father in Heaven. Yesterday also strengthened my testimony on the importance of eternal families and the blessings we recieve at the Temple. I am so grateful we have temples so close to us and that we can learn more about the blessings and plan that Heavenly Father has for us. I am grateful to be blessed with a darling little family of my own and I can't wait to share eternal life with them.

What a sweet sweet special day for Shiloh and Jesse and their darling kids. Shiloh and Jesse I am so proud of you for making the decision to go to the temple. Also thank you so much for letting us share in your special day. IT is an experience I know I will never forget! Jared took these pictures on our camera and the battery was dying so sorry they aren't the best but Shiloh got some cute ones on her camera so hopefully she won't hate me for posting these since I don't have the ones I took on her camera. Junior It was so sweet as he walked into that sealing room and saw me and said "Thats Hailey's mom ...then he pointed to Jared and said Thats Haileys dad. SO fun to be known as Haliey's parents!
Holly SHe is such a cute sweet girl and I am grateful for the big big hug she shared with me in the temple.


The kids were in no mood to cooperate for pictures! They are busy bodies and like to be on the go. I love how Holly is trying to escape so her personality!


Thanks for waving to us Jesse!
Aren't they so cute and Happy! Way to go guys!
