MCKENZIE'S WEDDING

Oh my but she made a beautiful bride.  the day was great and the gym looked amazing.  Everything was as she wanted it.  Her and Ranell had bought the dress without any help from mom.  we did have to modify it a little but she was glowing.  The ceremony itself was great.  Bishop Blackham did a great job.  He gave them some great advice.  The luncheon turned out great with plenty of food for everyone.  Pictures were a little hectic but they always are.  The reception was a great time.  It is always a party when you get all the cousins together.  Great western decorations and a great ice cream bar for refreshments. The little boys were great sports being in all the pictures.  Thanks to all who helped from food to setting up and cleaning up.  You never can pull off this kind of thing with out tons of help from others.  Now if she will just come and get all her stuff from our house and moved into her own in Burley.

HARRY'S SEALING

We got to spend some time in the temple today with Harry.  He had the opportunity to be sealed to his parents.  Time spent in the temple is special no matter what but this day was especially amazing.  From the moment Harry was brought into the sealing room you could feel the change and the charge in the room.  Everyone in that room including Harry knew that the veil disappeared for a few minutes.  The sealer was amazing.  Even though it only took a few minutes they were a marvelous few minutes.  Times like this make you realize that the truthfulness of the gospel definitely spreads into the life beyond.  I am ever grateful for the gospel in my life and the blessing that the temple brings to us not only here on earth but for eternity.
