Joy of all Joys!

Wednesday was an amazing day!  Jacob has worked so hard to get to this point in his life and it was very much a privilege to get to be in the temple with him as he made sacred covenants with the Lord.  I was so impressed with the men from our ward who were invited and came to support Jacob in this next step to becoming a missionary.  Our Bishop was there as were several other neighbors and friends.  It was also very special to have so much family there.  My mom and aunt and uncle came into town to support Jacob and cousin Jill and Rich were there and so were Adrienne and Jon.  

It was very special to be in the Temple with Jacob.  After being greeted by so many people, Jacob and I got to sit together and just take it all in. We could feel dad there with us and it was an amazing way to remember his passing a year ago that very day.  We also got to take a very special tour of the sealing rooms and the children's room.  The Rexburg temple is so beautiful. It was an honor to get to be in places we don't normally get to go.  After we changed, we went out through the baptistry and took some photos. 

 

 

 

 

After the temple, we went out to dinner in honor of Jacob. He chose Applebee's and although it was a pretty late night, it was a lot of fun to be out celebrating him!
