May 8, 2012: Best Day EVER!!!

Going through the Temple was the most amazing experience!  I cried happy tears all day.  I am so thankful for my mother-in-law for being my escort, even if she was completely unfamiliar with the Mesa Temple.  It made for a fun day!  I will forever remember this day.  How I felt, how happy my husband was, my kids.  My sweet husband.  He is such a softie and I love him for it.  I'll remember sitting with him, him holding my hands.  The way he looked at me and then tearing up.  Him telling me that he has never seen me more happy or more beautiful.  I was radiant.  I've never been more happy than that day. Oh my kids.  When they were brought into the sealing room I lost what composure I had remaining.  Seeing them walk in with beaming smiles would melt any ones heart.  I'll remember Leah, with her silly ponytail, smiling and listening intently to every word.  Makayla, with hair bows clipped on both sides of her head, eagerly running up to Craig to hug him when she saw us.  Evan running up to the alter so excited for what was to come.  How each of them were able to listen and answer (correctly) the questions asked of them.  Little Halle's smile.  I'll remember how the sealer was inspired to talk about the primary song Little Purple Pansies, which was Grandma Thompson's favorite.  Because of this I know that she was there with us in spirit.  I am thankful for the gospel.  I am thankful for my Savior and I am thankful to have my family in heaven.  

My Eternal Family

To celebrate the day we went to the Cheesecake Factory.  Craig ate 3 loaves of this bread all by himself.  

Since it was our anniversary we ditched the kids with the parents and saw a movie.
Loved it!

Ended the night with some delicious frozen yogurt.

I wish every day could be like this!!!
