Such a Great weekend!

me and my hubby after the dedication!


I am so happy to say that i live 5 min. away from the Gila Valley Temple. This past weekend the Temple was dedicated and now is open. I am so thankful that i can go as often as i want now. Before we were having to find a babysitter all day to make the 3 hr trip up and back to go to the Mesa Temple!
During the Cultural Celebration i got to sit 4 rows behind President Monson. This weekend was such a spiritual High i didn't want it to end!! Go here and see more pictures of the Cultural celebration!

How awesome is that to be in the very same room as Pres.Monson! SO jealous! I really am so excited for you to have a temple close by. What a blessing! Oh, BTW LOVE your dress!

What a neat experience! I'm happy for you to have a temple so close now! On a trip many year ago we went to the Mesa Temple, it is so beautiful!! And, to be so close to Pres. Monson, Awesome:)

You are so lucky to be close to a temple! We are 3 1/2 hours away from our temple {OKC}. My oldest will be going for the first time this Sat. to do baptisms! :)
Have a beautiful day!
