Sealed!

So these last couple months, we have been working towards being sealed as a family for time and all eternity. On September 30, 2011, Stephen and I were able to attend the Idaho Falls Temple and receive our endowments. It was such a special day and we were so happy to see all of you that came! Conference came and went and we were able to be sealed as a family on October 8, 2011. Again, we were so grateful for all of you that were able to make it and share such a happy day with our family. Here are a few family pictures we were able to get thanks to a great friend who came!

Temple Day for Sean

Hi Everyone!

Today was a lovely day and we missed you! When asked if he was overwhelmed by his experience, Sean answered, "no, i would describe it more as.....Whu -- at??...." (And -- we'll miss being with you tomorrow Austin. Sean will come though!) It really was nice though and so was Sunday. Lots of family, friends and food, a combination that can't be beat. I know I've said it over and over, but I thank you all so much for being part of the 'village' that has helped us raise our kids. It takes lots of examples and love and patience; you have shared all of that with so much love and care.

Fun photo of Hayden, Sean, and Austin. Elliot and Alex were there too! I should have had a picture of all our 'boyz'! My bad, just didn't get it done like I should have! Also missin: Wes, Thayne and Nate.

We love you all and hope to see you soon!
