the one with 'adlanna' temple festivites

real southerners don't say atlanta

they say adlanna

now on to the fun stuff

mom, dad, and zac worked at the open house

and i got to watch this cute little girl

she was adorable

and she said we're best friends

then we dropped off miss lauren to her parents

and went and toured the temple

before a temple is dedicated you can tour the inside

i toured the mt. timpanogos temple

but it was amazing to tour as a family

sans nathan, but he was there in spirit

dad had taken the boys aside

i took this picture after

but the colors turned out so cool

this is how it was before the mt. timpanogos temple

and because of the sealing power of the temple

we were sealed to my brothers for

time and all eternity

 

the atlanta temple was closed for almost two years

because the condition was worse than they first thought

now they have made grand improvements

like they have a thing in the back of the temple

that holds water so all outside water needs are taken care of

and use no city water

and water is such an issue here so this is amazing!

so that was last weekend

this weekend was amazing

these are some views from our hotel room

it was so beautiful!

 

 

this was at something like 6 in the morning

sleeping on the floor did not agree with me!

while we were waiting in line to get in

we were lucky enough to see our stake kids

and they looked like cadged animals

this is the one of the chaperones

the picture turned out really nice

the girls had just finished practicing

the color turned out really cool with this one too

i like the coloring with ian's sunglasses

of course dan and will were on the front row on stage

dan's the one on the left

our kids from the ward

 of course they got in the hsm jump

some of the boys wanted to get in on the action too

due to copyrights and all

no pictures or videoing was allowed

will got really close to president monson who was there

for the cultural celebration

it was amazing
