"Sealing" the Deal!

What a great day! It was a loooong time coming! We got luckly and got sealed on the only saturday in March that it was actually sunny and semi-warm weather! I just wanted to say thanks to all of our family and friends who traveled so far to be with us that day. Some of them came long distances like Amber & Jeff - Thanks for keeping your promoise to be with us it means so much to us that you came! You really find out who your true friends are when you ask them to come be with you when you get sealed and then tell them you are doing it in Manti three hours away! Thanks for giving up time with your family and a whole saturday to be with our family! This is a day that our family will never forget! I just would like to share a little side note about the day - When we got to the temple and were done with photos and went in to fill out paperwork and such they took Tony and I to different rooms for a little bit while I was sitting in the room by meself I said a little prayer about how greatful I was that we had finally made it here- then I said to myself how I wished Brittany was here with me to help me get dressed and such but I knew that I would not see her until we were in the sealing room and it made me kind of sad. Just then they brought Tony in the room I was in and started to take us to the dressing rooms just as they opened the door there stood Jeremy & Brittany Strong! The escort asked me is she your friend? I said YES! she is! Then the escort said then she can come with you and help you! Heavenly Father answers prayers even if it is just for your friend to be with you. Brittany got to help me get dressed and stay with me until it was time to go meet back with Tony - I don't know if she realizes how much that meant to me to have her there with me and how special it was to me to have my dear friend with me to help me during such a special and sacred time. Thanks for being such a good friend to me Brittany you tell it to me like it is when I am out of line without being judgemental and mean and you back me up when you think I am in the right! You and Jeremy have become our best friends and we love being with your family and I look forward to many more years of friendship and putting up with our "crazy" husbands! LOL I just wanted to share that little story with everyone and to once again tell everyone how grateful we are to have such great friends and family that support us!
