Met the love of my life One year ago



The other night Gavin and I decided to watch the video made for our wedding. It brought back good memories and I thought I would share it with all of you! :) Gavin and I celebrated knowing each other for one year yesterday. Which happens to be his mom's birthday. It is a very special day for us. To celebrate we went and ate at Bear Paw, we had banana and apple spice Belgian waffles and our favorite drink, dreamcicle! After that we ran some errands, Gavin took a history test and then we shared a pasta bowl from domino's. Yummy! We watched some last comic standing and America's most wanted (kind of gives me nightmares). Then we met up with Gavin's parents and Mekynzie. We had a really good chef salad that dad made for dinner. Gina (Peterson) and Gracie came over and then we loaded a bag with goodies and headed off for TARZAN!

Tarzan was sooo fun! I think Gavin appreciated the drums the most and Mekynzie appreciated TARZAN! haha I loved the music and dancing. Especially the apes! It was really fun to watch. ONE disappointment. Jane never said..."And daddy.. I lost my boot!" Kenz and I were waiting for it! But it never came. Besides that the show was great! The vocals were amazing and the people I was with were family. It doesn't get much better than that!

I love the Temples


"Come to the temples worthily and regularly. Not only do you bless those who are deceased, but you may freely partake of the promised personal revelation that may bless your life with power, knowledge, light, beauty, and truth from on high, which will guide you and your posterity to eternal life. What person would not want these blessings, as expressed by the Prophet Joseph Smith at the dedication of the Kirtland Temple. He said: "We ask thee, holy Father, that thy servants may go forth from this house armed with thy power, and that thy name may be upon them, and thy glory be round about them, and thine angels have charge over them." (D&C 109:22.)
-David B. Haight

I was married in the St. George temple on Dec. 19th, 2009. I am so grateful for the knowledge I have that because I have been married in the temple I can live with my husband forever and when I have children I will have them forever. I am so grateful for temples and the blessings I receive from my Heavenly Father when I attend the temple. Our Heavenly Father is always just waiting to bless us. When we do what is right we are blessed immensely. Maybe not immediately but we will be blessed in the eternities if not now.

Gavin and I got to go through the Manti Temple last week because we went up there for the Manti Pageant. My ancestors helped build the Manti Temple so it was very special for me. The Manti Temple is sooooo beautiful!!! I love it! The pageant was amazing. I used to go all the time when I was growing up so it was fun to go relive those memories and actually understand the stories more this time. I love the spirit you feel as you learn about how the gospel was restored and about Joseph Smith.


I had the opportunity to go to Japan for 10 days with my best friend Alexa Stout. That was such an amazing trip! While we were there we were able to go to the Tokyo, Japan temple. It was very fun and I had no idea what anybody was saying. But the spirit I felt was the same.
