Temple

We just spent the weekend in Worcester, Massachusetts, and while there Aaron and I went to the Boston Temple for the first time since we were married there, seven years ago!!! Not only that, but we have not been to the any temple since I was five months pregnant with Jacob (he will be two at the end of this month.)

Up until we pulled into the parking lot of the temple I could not get out of my mind that something was going to go wrong and that we would not be able to go. I kept thinking that someone would get sick, our car would break, the temple would be closed...but we made it!!!

And it was sooooooooo wonderful to be back to where we were married. I cannot help but feel gratitude for Aaron and the choices that he made in his life that led us to be married in the Boston Temple. My life brings me so much joy, and it would not be the same if I weren't married to my best friend for eternity!

And as I sat in the temple, completely overjoyed, I could not help but think how much I wanted everyone to experience the joy I feel being in the temple. I also thought of how attending the temple has a centering effect and perhaps the challenges of the last couple of years would have been easier to bear if we had being attending the temple more regularly.

All I can say is that it was a wonderful day!!!



I had to add this one because when we got married the temple did not have the steeple yet.
