Our Own "Happily Ever After"

 Friday night date night at the temple...one of my all time favorite things to do with my hubby!!!

Having the Jordan River Temple open once again is such a blessing!

After we did sealings there, we went to dinner at Gecko's Mexican Restaurant, and then to a wedding reception for a young man in our ward, Bryce Stone. He was one of "my kids" on trek and I have always had a great love for him ever since then. I was just so so happy for him and that he was able to find such a kind and beautiful wife and that he could be sealed to her for time and all eternity...

Congratulations Bryce and Allie!

 Saturday we were able to pick Kierra up from the airport so she could be here for the weekend! Her good friend Emma Geertsen returned home from her mission this week and gave her homecoming talk that she wanted to be here for so it was a good excuse to see her for a minute! Emma served in the Italy Rome mission which is the same mission that our son Carew is currently serving in and call me crazy, but there was something about listening to her share her experiences there that really made me feel close to Carew and I loved every minute it. :)

 We were also able to go to my little nephew Emmet's 1st birthday party where we had fun just catching up with everyone!

 They had a bounce house there that was so fun for all of the kids...especially Kesslyn! ;)

 She jumped and jumped her little heart out until her little cheeks were bright red!!!

Being a kid and so care free...I love to watch them live and learn and take it all in...WE are living each day, our own "happily ever after!" Dream big my little ones! :)
