Weddings!

My roommates and I were talking about weddings as most of them are going to get engaged soon.  We were talking about rings, receptions, temples, dresses, etc.  It made me think of how much I love weddings!  It is so exciting to see people who seem so happy getting married for eternity.  That is such an IMPORTANT decision.  One thing I was thinking about was how we let all the fun stuff like rings and receptions etc, get in the way.  Which causes us to miss the most exciting thing and such an important stepping stone in our lives.  We ruin it by if it rains or our hair doesn't look as we planned.  We miss that we are getting sealed to the man of our dreams for time and all eternity.  It's the start of each of our Happily Ever Afters.  So I wanted to post a picture of one of my 4 of my favorite temples that have special meaning to me. 

This Temple of course holds a special place in my heart because I live literally two minutes away walking.  Not only that but this is where I did my first baptism's for the dead.  I have seen them remodel it and make the grounds look incredible.  I remember being in elementary school and getting out of class to see them place the angel moroni on it.  This Provo Temple is beautiful and makes our block look so unique. 

Salt Lake Temple.  I feel like everybody wants to get married here.  But who could blame them it looks like a castle!  I was just up there last weekend and I couldn't stop starring, thinking to myself how beautiful it is.  It amazes me how they put so much art work and built it without the tools which we have today.  

Rexburg Temple.  I LOVE THIS TEMPLE.  At the beginning of my second semester up here at 

BYU–I our bishopric challenged us to go to the temple once a week.  I took that challenge and cannot even to describe how my love and testimony for the temple has grown.  It truly is a place of peace and happiness.  Plus in the middle of Rexburg right across from a grassy field of nothing.  There is nothing more beautiful to look at. 

The last one is the Mesa, Arizona Temple.  One fun fact before I tell you why I love it so much.  This temple has two others that look like it one in Canada which I have been to, and the other in Hawaii.  My cousins grandpa is the Mission president of this temple and over the spring break my family and I were able to go and do baptisms together.  We spent time with the mission presidents and it was such a unique experience.  Also on that same trip I had the opportunity of seeing the HUGE easter pageant that they hold ever year. It was so fun and amazing!!  The acting was excellent and truly felt the spirit there.  It was such a wonderful experience being able to see how Christ's life played out and to know that he does live.
