Do you ever feel like you're behind on everything... and nothing has even started yet? ha ha. That's kinda how I feel right now. Well... that is not the purpose of this post. The purpose IS... well, a number of things.
First, I have something to share. On December 29th, my Grandparents were sealed in the Mesa Arizona Temple! I am so very proud of them and their decision. Even though I couldn't go inside, it was a glorious day and just absolutely wonderful! I can't wait for the day that I can go inside The Temple!
Secondly, Sarah Carpenter came and took some pictures for us. She did a great job! Here's a taste of what she did... we took lots, but here's the general idea:
The cousins waiting outside:
My Aunt Kim and her family couldn't be here, so this is 2/3 of my Grandparent's grandchildren
The Family:
Grandpa and Grandma coming out:
Singing "Jesus Wants me for a Sunbeam" to keep the little guys entertained while the adults were inside. The Temple was REALLY busy that day, so they were about 45 minutes after they thought. Thankfully, our Temple has a visitors center!
Thanks for the pictures, Sarah!
It really was a great day! Thanks for your example, Grandma and Grandpa!
Well... this is my last week until back-to-school! I really can't complain. I've had a really long, really fun, really productive break! I'm really grateful that I have gotten so many things done. I've also had a ton of fun being at home with my Mom. Things are going to get REALLY crazy REALLY fast though... so I will just say that I love you all, and I hope that I'll get to see you SOMEtime! Good luck to everyone with school, life, and whatever may come your way!

That's so exciting! Congratulations Bro. and Sis. Jones! (You can tell them that for me since you see them more than I do!)Thanks! Love ya!
Oh my goodness! That is so wonderful that they did that! Next time I see them, I will have to give them a big congratulations. (I did get to talk to them over break, when I went to my old ward...why didn't she tell me about it, so I could have been excited then?? It was only two days after! :) ) This post brought a smile to my face. :D
