"Joy"

"Joy"

Blessed are ye because of your faith. And now behold, my joy is full. 3 Nephi 17:20 "This is one of my favorite moments in the Book of Mormon. After stating this, Jesus simply spends some time blessing and interacting with the children, while angels descend out of heaven. In this piece, I wanted to depict our Savior in that moment of "full joy". I see Him smiling and laughing spontaneously, filled with so much love for those young people, to the point of weeping for joy (as it mentions in the record He did). If its human nature to manifest feelings of joy and love in that way... then I have to believe that would especially be the case for the One who is the embodiment of every good and righteous instinct of human nature."~Dave Bowman~

Sarah's first Easter :)

Well it was Sarah's first Easter that she was able to go to Easter egg hunt and actually have fun. Last year at this time she was only 5 weeks old and we didn't really leave the house much. But she had a lot of fun and she clung mostly to Dad during the whole time. We also took pictures of her on Sunday with some eggs...enjoy.





So The eggs at the hunt were of course plastic with plenty of jelly beans and other candy. However, we colored eggs on Saturday night and she got to play with the real ones and of course she tried to eat them so when we were done taking pictures her lips were yellow...lol

Our Temple Day


April 1, 2009
This was our big day it turned out to be just perfect. I was crying even before we even got to the sealing room. I couldn't hold it in at all, but that is just fine because I think everyone else was crying as well. I know that when Sarah was brought in they sure started to at least. She was so darn beautiful it took my breath away when I saw her.
As you can see for yourself she did look very beautiful. I just know that this day will always be a special one to remember. We had many friends and family there to share in our special day and that was wonderful. I know that some were not able to make it to the Sealing and we sure did miss them. However, we know in our hearts that they were there with us.

When I sat down next to my Mom in the sealing room she said that there were many there with us that we could not see and that was so true. I know that Zach and I both felt that was true and that we felt them there. I hope that all that were there know how much we appreciate them and are grateful that they were there to support us on our BIG day!

I don't have the words to explain the emotions in my heart about this day. I am so grateful that we were able to be sealed as a family. I know that everything was in God's time and at his will and it has been a hard path to follow, but a well worn path that others have followed as well. I am grateful for those who have gone before me and have been an example to me and my family.

Again thank you to all that have been with us in this journey and I hope that we may see many more exciting days like these. Loves from Zach, Tai, & Sarah. :)
