Together Forever!



























Saturday was one of those days that we will never forget. We are of the LDS faith and we believe that families can be together forever, even after death. We have a special ceremony that we hold in our temples that symbolically binds us together as a family. We call it a 'sealing'. We are sealed or joined together. This Saturday our family went together to a temple near our home and Seth was sealed, joined into our family forever.

We all wear white as a symbol of heaven and of purity. I felt so much joy to have all of my children gathered together. We had friends and family who came to share in our celebratory moment. I hope you love my pictures of my children as much as I do!

Thanks for sharing your beautiful day with us. I don't really have the words to express the emotions and the spirit I felt.

And you win the smart mom award! Go back LATER to the temple for family pics. They all are so beautiful.

What a cherished memory, in our hearts and in the family photos, too.

Love
Kim
