one of my best friends/cousin got married to the love of her life this pass weekend. it was one special weekend. i spent a lot of time reflecting on how grateful i am for my family and the fact we can be together forever. thinking about it just makes my heart happy. yes, my family is loud and crazy but, i love them oh so much! i loved watching michael and annie start their eternal family. it reminded me of the day daniel and i were sealed by my grandpa for time and all eternity. the same grandpa that sealed michael and annie this weekend. such a special memory.
on thursday we went to the temple {click temple to learn more about them} with my family to support annie. she was going through for the first time. as i was sitting in there i looked down on my lap and in my lap was the pouch my grandma used to use for all her temple stuff, which i now use. on it is a stitched picture of the san diego temple and the words "families are forever". i had not noticed the words until that moment. in some way i feel that i was meant to notice them at the very moment. the moment when my testimony of families was the strongest.
i guess you can say this weekend was a special weekend full of spiritual uplifting, happy tears, family, and lots of love. i love that families can be together forever through the blessings of the temple and the gospel. it makes my heart happy. what makes you happy? yep, its a new month which means its happy list time! {did you like that? how i flowed right into the happy list?! haha}
