Two Sealings, Two Cities, One Day



On Friday the girls and I drove up to Dallas. We hung out with the Rogers that afternoon and then I took the girls to Snowcone Lady for a treat and then to their dad's house that evening. Ku'ulei and I took Mason to Little Elm Park that night for a concert in the park. It was so fun!! She and I stayed up and watched Sydney White and crashed at 2am. The next morning we got up (kinda late:) and got ready for the temple. Angel gave me a ride to the temple and we were able to attend the Grumbles' family sealing at 2pm. It was beautiful and very touching. This family is so special! From the sealing I went straight to the airport and caught a 4pm flight to Houston. My friends here, Dave and Danielle, were sealed that morning in the Houston temple. From the airport I went straight to their wedding reception. It was a beautiful reception and you couldn't even recognize the cultural hall! I wish I had my camera to take pictures but Brae had it this weekend. I spent the night in Houston and went to the singles ward Sunday then flew back up to Dallas that night and got up early this morning (Monday) to pick the girls up and drive back home. It was a whirlwind weekend but it was exciting, spontaneous and fun! I am thankful to all my friends who helped me out this weekend. I was sad to not get more time with them, that was the downside.
