Love to See the Temple

Aaron and I had a super amazing great temple trip yesterday. It was a very special experience.

Clarise was going through the temple for the first time!!

I wasn't asked to be her escort through the temple, which was fine with me since I was scared that I would mess it up. Our friend Kerianna was Clarise's escort, which was also very special.


I was praying all week that I would be able to sit next to Clarise somehow. We have been friends for 4 and a half years and I love her so much. She helped me so much my first year at college and has been a great example to me of what a woman should be.

Well, we showed up so early that I thought we had missed her going in! I almost started crying. Luckily we found this woman who had the list of people who were going through and told me that we had another 30 minutes. And guess what? We were able to be the "witness couple". That means that Aaron and I were sitting in the front row to show other people stuff that needed to be done. Which means, I got to sit right next to Clarise!!! Yeah...Heavenly Father hears and answers our prayers...in case you didn't know.

One of Clarise's aunts and uncle were able to come and her cousin. A couple of Geoff's aunts were there and so was one of his cousins.

I had a really great day so I can only imagine how nice it was for Clarise and Geoff. I got to work on some Family History while I was there also. It was a really wonderful day and it will forever be in my memory as one of the greatest days of my friendship with Clarise and Geoff.
Also, this is the best subject for my 100th post!
