Since we had everyone home, we couldn't miss an opportunity to go to the temple together. It was so amazing to be in the temple with my husband, mom and dad, grandma and grandpa, and aunts and uncles. All of them were there. It was so amazing to go through a session and make it to the celestial room, and see everyone there, standing in a circle. We are an eternal family. Because of the temple, one day, we will all be together in Heaven. In the temple, we are a little closer to heaven. It was so special to see everyone there. At the end of the day, all we take to the other side is our knowledge and our relationships. I have an amazing family where love abounds. We all take care of each other and would be there for one another in a heart beat. Trevor and I are the first of our generation to go through the temple, so it was so special to be there with our aunts and uncles and grandparents.
For me, seeing everyone in the temple together, was another testimony to me of the truthfulness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I looked around at my family, all were smiling and happy, at that moment, we were all a little closer to God, he was in our mist, because we were in His house. I felt God's approval and happiness for our family. We have participated in the ordinances preformed in the temple which will one day, allow us to walk back to the presence of God, where we will dwell together as a family.
I feel so blessed to be born into this family. All are active members of the Church, all are righteous and striving to do the best they can. We are there for each other in hard times, and in good times. We are a tight knit family, a family which will be together forever. :)
Enjoy our pictures!
