Eternal Families:)



          I'm so happy to share that my dear friend/sister Marian & her lovely family were Sealed for All Time & Eternity in the Seattle Temple on June 25th.2011:) It was a Beautiful day & I'm so glad we were able to witness such a memorable occasion. As I sat in my seat & their son Lil Will came in tears started to flow like a waterfall down my face. I felt such a warm feeling of happiness towards their family. It made me reflect back to the day when She was not yet a member but had lots of questions about the Gospel. It was a rainy spring day & we were sitting in her car outside the Laundromat eating ice cream.lol.. She said that they were thinking about attending church but didn't know which one to attend. I seen this was the PERFECT chance to do Missionary work, I shared w/ her my testimony & the great blessings that come with being a worthy member of the church. Also, some of the stereotypes that we @ times are labeled, but just as long as we know who we are & what we believe in no one's opinion really matters. She seemed a little interested but wanted to weigh out their other options. I was surprised to hear that 2 weeks later she decided to be baptized:) whoo-hoo! I'm was so proud of her for making a big decision & realizing that it was the BEST thing for her lil family. 1 year later, we're in the Temple witnessing their family being sealed for ETERNITY:) Seriously, I couldn't stop crying.. like I said in my previous post I'm a crybaby.lol. I'm excited for all that the Lord has in-stored for their lil family & all the wonderful blessings they'll receive from entering the house of Lord. Good friends come & go but BESTFRIENDS never leave your side:) I love you Marian & I cherish our sisterhood that has developed through out the years. You're a great example in my life & I know we'll be old ladies one day sitting on a bench sippin' sum lemonade & looking back to see a friendship filled w/ amazing memories:) yay! for ETERNAL FAMILIES :) Love the Lei's *

  2. Yeah I totally lost it when lil Will came in the room too. I got mad at myself for wearing make-up on such an emotional day. It was absolutely beautiful! I was really taken by how many younger couples were there...what a beautiful sight! Thanks to you and your family for being stepping stones in their pathway to eternal life!
