A very spiritual few days



We were able to bless Hope in church on Sunday. Loren gave the sweetest blessing. He had me crying.
We are so grateful to all the the friends and family that came to support us. I thought that they might have to open the over flow because the chapel was very packed. They didn't though.






After the 3 block meetings we gathered back at our house to visit and eat. I loved catching up with people that we haven't been in contact with for a while.
Loren's parents flew in from Arizona late Saturday afternoon. They stayed until Wednesday morning. It was great having them here. Hope had to warm up to Marcia before she would let her hold her. It didn't take very long and Hope was talking and smiling at her.


Hope has learned how to squeal very loud. It is so darling. I admit, she gets a lot of attention when she does it. And many laughs. Although church and the temple aren't the best places to be happy loud.
On Tuesday we where able to go to the temple and have Hope sealed to us. I can not express the great joy and love that was felt there. All of the children were able to attend and witness the sealing. I cried when all of the children came into the room dressed in white, looking like angels. What a blessing it is to have the gospel in our lives and the blessings of the temple. We were able to get a family photo of us all in white. This will be a day that will always be remembered by us and the friends and family that joined us.Thanks to all who took time out of their busy live to be with us.




Paige's choir sang The Star spangled banner at the Utah flash game on Monday.  It sounded awesome. They sang occapla.  We were able to get tickets for the family. So we went and watched the game up to half time and then came home.  Parker caught a shirt that they were throwing to the fans.  He is so excited about it, he wore it to bed.  Great job Paige!!
