the temples

We saw the DC Temple and the New York City Temple while we were away. Both were so beautiful, as every temple is. The DC Temple was enormous. When we came out it was night time and it was incredible lit up against the dark night sky.
There is nothing like the New York City Temple. It is a little piece of heaven right in the middle of the city. When we went we were stressing about what we should do with our lives for the next few months. The city was loud and chaotic and adding to our stress. It was the most wonderful and the most needed thing when we walked into the calm of the temple/church meeting house. We like to think that it was the peacefulness of being there, and then stayed with us that helped us know what we should do.

Logan, UT

Last weekend my father in law and sister rode in the MS150 bike ride in Logan Utah. We used that as an excuse to make the drive up there and go to the Logan Temple. 

Isn't it such an amazing building? I love it. 

It was such a beautiful, sunny day. 

We had fun drinking homemade lemonade and basking in the sun as we watched bikers ride in. 

They all did a great job. 

David and I even think we might do a tandem ride next year!

Cache cab or Cash cab?

another love day

With Valentines Day just around the corner I felt it was an appropriate time to share about our anniversary, another love day. Since 2010 is an even year it was David's turn to plan what we did.

We both decided that we wanted to go to the temple every year on our anniversary, so that is what we did first. We went to the beautiful Draper Temple to do sealings. It was an awesome reminder that of the promises we made a year ago.

David knows how I love me a mani/pedi so he then treated me to one. Later that night he re-created a lot of good memories of ours. We went to dinner at our favorite Thai restaurant, which is also where he proposed. We finished the night by going up the Marriott hotel where we went on our wedding night. He even sang my song to me, my own personal show.

I love David. I love that he loves me no matter what. I love our little family. love love love.
