Jennifer and Jake's Wedding

September 16, 2022
I planned my Utah trip so I could be there for Grandma's birthday, but I stayed longer so I could be there for my cousin Jennifer's wedding, as well.  
This is one of the dresses I found at Uptown Cheapskate, for only $12.99! 
I'm so in love with it!  It's comfortable, the perfect fit and the colors were perfect for the wedding too!
As soon as I finished getting ready for the wedding, Kaden called me from Guatemala to say that they had met their mission goal of one baptism for every missionary in their district and as a reward, they were going to the temple in Guatemala City.  He was really excited and I thought it was neat that we would both be in different temples at the same time.

The ceremony was beautiful and we could feel the Spirit in the House of the Lord. 
Being witness to a sealing for time and eternity is definitely a special experience.
