Beautiful temple grounds

My cute parents. I'm so proud of them for making it to the temple. My mom was my escort along with Heidi. Dad and Jeremy were Shane's escorts as well as our witness to our sealing.

Shane and I with our escorts. It was so special to have most of my family with us to share this special day.

The whole group: Left to right Jesse, Laura, Alicia, Ken, Jeffrey, Kellie, Byron, Shane, Jen, Dad, Candice, Mom, Nicole Heidi, Jeremy, Chris, Cherise, Blaine. I'm glad I was able to share this day with so much family. I know the ones that were unable to make it were there in heart. I am grateful for the wonderful family that I have. They are supportive and loving. I love you all! Thanks for sharing this day with us!

Just after getting sealed for eternity. I'm so happy to have Shane as my husband.

Shane and I were married civiling in Lehi, Utah April 4, 2004. Shane is a convert and had to get his priesthood before we could go through the temple. We had a goal to go through the temple as soon as we could. We took temple prep classes twice. We had a lot of support from our bishop, home teacher, visiting teacher, missionaries, family and ward. We finally made it to our goal to become a Forever Family on September 18, 2010. It was a beautiful day, one I will always remember. I'm glad we were able to share this day with family and loved ones.

I loved inititories the most. It was so neat to see everyone dressed in white. The spirit was strong. I was confused mostly during the endowment session. I hope to go back soon and learn more and feel the spirit. I liked our sealer and what he had to say. The mirrors were so neat to see go on and on. It was a great experience.

Shane and I went to Utah to visit family and get sealed. We stayed with Jer and Nicole at "Hotel Hamilton" Friday the 17th we went to Payson Lake. We walked around the lake then drove the Nebo loop. The fall colors are beautiful. It was a beautiful day and fun. Heidi, My parents and Jaymee were with us.

Saturday the 18th we had a family/friend potluck after the sealing. It was nice to be able to see many of the family in the area and some friends. The food was good, company great and memories were made. I got to hold some of my cousin's babies.

Sunday We went to church at Jer's ward. It was very spiritual. After church we went to Cascade Springs. I got sick on the car ride. :( The tree's were beautiful up Alpine loop too. I didn't walk around much since I didn't feel good. It was very pretty though.

At Pig out in the park.

Shane and I had a fun Labor day. We went to Riverside Park for "Pig out in the park" they have really yummy food not usually good for you though. After we ate we went to Manito park and went through the conservatory (green house). Then we walked through Duncan gardens and the rose garden. It was very pretty. It smelled heavenly.
