I love to see the Temple


I found this picture in with some others my step-dad had taken (thanks Tom). Larry recently spoke in church and mentioned it has been 5 years since he was baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I'm so thankful to have had the Priesthood in our home, especially this last year. It has brought me such comfort and peace through some very difficult times. And it has been so wonderful to watch our children go to their dad for blessings of comfort or if they're sick. They've learned to count on that as well.
Larry was recently called to serve as the 1st Counselor in the Bishopric of our ward. A week or so after this call our ward split. So not only has he been learning his new position, he's also been busy helping fill a lot of spots that have opened up. Almost every presidency needed to be replaced. He has done a great job, and continues to do a great job. I am very proud of him.

Wow, Jen--I'm surprised by how many similarities we have--same age, Robert was put in the bishopric in May, and both Adam and Josh have OCD. Who knew the turns life would take? What symptoms/rituals does Josh have with his OCD? Adam's big ones are contamination and counting/numbering.

Beautiful pic of the temple! I have been meaning to comment, but have had little free time. Where did you get Hope's bath chair? Do you like it? I can't find one for Luca. Jake and I even looked at Babies R Us this last weekend in Utah. It looks like a blast for the babies, and easy on us!
