Well, it's been a long time since we posted anything. We were enjoying some fun with our family in Idaho over the Christmas holiday. It was fun to be surrounded by family, snow, and food. We had some good laughs and played some fun games. It had been a while since we had been out there to visit.
We also had the pleasure of seeing Bryan's youngest sibling and sister get married in the Boise Temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. It was a beautiful wedding. She looked absolutely beautiful and was so happy! Her colors were really fun- especially on all the nieces and nephews- fuschia and black. The weather was cold but beautiful!
One thing that I love is that through the restored gospel of Jesus Christ and it's proper priesthood authority, it is possible to be married for time and all eternity, not just til death do us part. That knowledge brings a lot of peace in a world full of uncertainty. This "sealing" or marriage is done in temples of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I know that Bryan and I have been blessed continually by having been married for time and all eternity in the temple. It brings peace to my mind and heart that if anything were to happen to either of us, that after we died we would be together forever. I can't imagine being married to someone that I love so very much and with whom I walked through all the good and hard things of life with, and having to be seperated from them when I die. I know that is not part of a kind, wise Heavenly Father's plan for His children. He wouldn't have sent us here to be in families if that was his purpose.
The family is central to our Heavenly Father's plan and it is through temples that we can be with each other even after we die.
