True Love

Saturday is supposed to be a "sleep late" day? Not! This past Saturday was no exception. We had to be at the Houston Temple by 8:30 for Kallie and Jared's Sealing. It was a beautiful day! I even got to sit in as Kallie's moma! : ) After we left the temple, we went to the bookstore and then we went to the Houston Musuem of Natural Science to see Body Works! WOW! It was phenominal! The only bad part was that they wouldn't allow photographs! We ended the evening celebrating John and Ester's 50th Wedding Anniversary! They renewed their vows and were so happy. If only all of us could love our spouse as much as they do! We'd all make it to our 50th! This week brings anniversaries to 3 of our 4 married kids (the 4th celebrates their 1st in January)! Happy Anniversary to you and yours and may you continue to grow your love for each other. Every day I realize that I love Rodney more than I did the day before. It's the unspoken, simple things that make a difference. I love his intelligence, his smile, his optimism, his kindness, and I could go on but you get the picture. Here's to TRUE LOVE!

Californi...aaaaa

We had the annual AIWD meeting in California this year. We flew into San Diego on election day. (Yes, we did early voting.) We saw lots of people by polling places with their vote "Yes for Prop 8" signs. We went by the San Diego Temple, too! As you can tell from the picture I took, the weather was absolutely gorgeous, as was the temple! It looks like a Castle out of a fairy tale! WOW! We drove on to Indian Wells right next to Palm Springs. There is close to 130 golf courses there someone said. We stayed at the Esmeralda Resort and Spa and enjoyed the relaxing time there. Glad to be home now!
