Catch up 3

This is the third and hopefully the last blog I need to write to play catch up. To continue from where I left off:  I love Craig's List.  I was able to find a, new to me, used stove on craigs list for only $40. I was so excited.  It was in great working order.  So we called a couple of friends from the ward to help us install the new stove.

The old stove is gone and we have it prepped for the new stove.

 

The final product.  The stove isn't pretty but it works great!!!  So much bigger and better than the old stove that was there.  I love the stove.  Thank you Justin and Justin for all your help!!

 

 

On October 13, I was given a great gift.  A friend of mine paid for a flight for me to fly to Utah to escort my friend Kelly thru the temple.  Kelly went thru the Oquirrh Mountain Temple. It is such a Beautiful temple. Kelly told me it was a small temple, but it has 3 floors and a basement. There are 6 sealing rooms. I told her this is not small...you should see tri-cities. :) We walked past the recommend desk and the sight just took my breath away. There were 2 staircases going up to the 2nd floor with a gigantic star chandlier in between. It was BEAUTIFUL!!! Kelly laughed at me because I actually made a noise and said how beautiful it was. It was so great being an escort for kelly. She and I both cried several times. I learned so much while I was there. I couldn't believe it. When I was waiting for kelly to get dressed the Assistant to the Matron was talking to me. I had told her I was from Washington and she asked a little about kelly and me. She told me to take Kelly up to the third floor to show her around. That is where all the sealing rooms are and the wedding waiting area. I was surprised she told me to do that and I asked if I really could. She said absolutely. So after the session, I took her up to the third floor. It was so beautiful. We were standing in a sealing room looking in the mirrors when an old man, who was a sealer, asked if we needed any help. I told him the Assistant to the Matron told us to take a look, and of course he knew kelly was new, so he said, well come here...let me show you this. And he showed us all this cool stuff up there. It was a lot of fun.

After the temple, we went to my friend Ange's house. That was where I was going to have a get together with some old friends I hadn't seen in a long time. So I got to see Ange and her husband, who I met in April when we went to their reception in Walla Walla, then I saw my friend Lisa and her new husband of 3 weeks. That was a lot of fun. She is a friend I met at the Business College. I also got to see Margo and her husband I had never met and her 2 year old little girl. They were fun to see. I actually met her up here in the branch.  I also got to see Nicole, who I worked with at Zirkle and she attended the branch. She brought her boyfriend that I got to meet. So it was a small crowd but so much fun. I just had a blast.
