Going to the Temple and we're....

Gonna get sealed! I am so excited to post on here that we have finally made it to the point of schedualing our sealing date at the Temple! (For all our followers that aren't Latter-Day Saints, this is a wedding ceremony that instead of binding you and your spouse together till death-do-you-part, it seals your family together for time and all eternity.) The offical dates are April 24th, 8pm, Endowment Sessions, and April 25th 10am Sealing Session. We are going to be going to the Columbus, OH Temple which is about an hour from here and we had to do it in 2 days cause with a 20 month old and a 7-8 weekish newborn, all in one day would have been too long. Soooooo, needless to say, any and all of you that are able to come and be a part of those special days for us, we would love, love, love to have you there with us! If you are going to try and make it let me know and I'll give you the number to the Temple so you can get in our sessions and also, the Columbus Temple is a smaller one, so you have to have your own Temple apparel. We also have a great network of friends here that have offered to help with childcare if you need it and we can get rooms on base (5 mins from our house) if you would need them as well. We love you all and will definatly post pictures afterward for all those that can't make it.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!! I think that that is the weekend before Peter goes on his deployment so we probably won't be able to make it, but I sure wish we could! I am so excited for you and you'll have to share with us the pics of everyone outside and tell us how it goes. This is so wonderful - I'm so happy for you!!!!!

Congrats! How exciting! Hope all goes smoothly with the labor and delivery. Good luck, and we should get together sometime. Or, I'll try to get in the same session when you get your endowments out-it would be fun for our husbands' to meet each other. Take care!
