Hannah's baptism Day!

What a fun day for Hannah. So many people who loved her there. She was pretty nervous, and didn't get her head under the first time, so they repeated. I was so proud of Mike, he did a wonderful job and gave her a beautiful blessing.

The bishop asked Marisa and Mike to make comments and it was very touching.

Hannah with her little friends that came.
Grandpa and grandma with Hannah.
There with mom and dad.
Lucky to have Great Granbpa and grandma come. It's hard for mom to still get around, but she's a trooper.

Fun day.

Rexburg Temple Open House

So excited to be part of the Rexburg Temple Open House. The session I was suppose to usher in got cancelled. I was so disappointed. But we did get tickets on line to go to the Open House and we went Friday. It is so beautiful. There are deer and elk in the creation room which was painted by Leon Parsons a local artist. All the wood was imported from Africa, and there is wheat etched in the windows and carpet with significance to the wheat farmers in the area. the chandeliers were so beautiful. They were taking some VIP's through and there's a place to put your shoes, and one guy said, "those aren't tall enough for cowboy boots", and so they took them out andput some in that were tall enough for the cowboy boots for the people from this area.

As we sat listening to the video presentation at the beginning, they showed pictures of the Spori building all alone on campus and how it has grown, and how Wilford Woodruff prophecied that this area of sagebrush would be fertile and productive and that this city would someday have a temple. I sat and cried. It really touched me, because I grew up here, and we always had to travel to Idaho Falls to the temple and to be here when history is being made was very touching to me. To be serving at BYU-I at this historic time is also such a blessing.
As we were in the sealing room, I felt such a sweet and deep love for my wonderful husband and family. The peace of the gospel is such a great feeling. I love it. I knew that our family could be together forever. what a blessing.
