I told Miriam I would try to blog every day until I get caught up...I may have to blog every day forever. By talking about the 4 temples I went to in August, I can combine some of the things I need to blog about.
First, on August 5th, Mike, Rachel, Danny, & I went to the Salt Lake Temple. It was the day before Danny entered the Missionary Training Center. (I will blog about that separately.) Hannah babysat for Rachel's children so Rachel could go with us. Thanks, Hannah! It was a great experience.
The next temple I attended in August was the Seattle Temple. It had been closed for 3 weeks, so it was nice to be there again on the first day it was open again (August 12). The floor has been beautifully refinished. Once a month, my friends get together and go to the Seattle Temple. This time I went with Char Kibbie and Marilynn Judd.

The following Saturday, I went to the Los Angeles Temple and did sealings with my parents, 2 sisters (Gwendolyn & Marilyn), 2 nephews and their wives (Ammon & Melanie and Alex & Tamara). I was in Palos Verdes to attend my 30-year class reunion of Palos Verdes High School. My dad volunteered our family to do the sealings since there were many of us there. I was only in California from Friday until Monday.
The last temple I went to in August was on August 30. We went to the Manti Temple for Nadine and Scott's sealing. It was a wonderful experience!! Many family members & friends (both sets of grandparents, aunts, cousins, sisters...many of Scott's family as well) were there to witness them making those sacred covenants. Thank you to all of you who made the effort to be there with us that day! The only pictures I had on my camera of that day were of the three adorable Morrill children. You can see more pictures of the sealing day on Garrett's photography website http://kellamsphotography.blogspot.com. Thanks, Garrett for taking the wonderful pictures!

When I saw that top picture I thought it was Nadine instead of me! I thought "Huh, I thought I was there, maybe I was taking the picture." Silly!
Oh, what a good day that was. Thanks for helping make my sealing day so special! I'm glad you got to go to 4 temples in August. We only went to 2 - Provo and Manti. And Rachel, yes you are very silly. I was at work.
