My Heart is Full

“As we go to the holy house, as we remember the covenants we make therein, we will be able to bear every trial and overcome each temptation. The temple provides purpose for our lives. It brings peace to our souls—not the peace provided by men but the peace promised by the Son of God when He said, ‘Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.’” {source}

On April 23, 2011 Blake and I kneeled across from one another and got sealed for time and all eternity in the Saint George Temple.

 My best friend and our future children will now be mine for eternity. On April 23, 2011 my heart was full. Fuller then it has ever been. Nothing could have put a damper on my day, our day. It was beautiful. It was breathtaking. I was all smiles and my heart was full. 

I like to believe that maybe I enjoyed our special moment a little bit more. Blake and I waited a year to get sealed and I'm proud to be able to say that we beat the trials and temptations of the world and made it. We reached our goal and now we'll be eternally happy side by side. I can't wait for m many future sessions with Blake. My heart is full.

To all my wonderful family who were able to make it, Thank you! Thank you for sharing this special special day with us. I love you all so much! Thank you for traveling for hours to come for a day, thanks for being patient while we got everything together, and most of all, thank you for being amazing!
