Today we finally had our beautiful Temple dedicted. It was awesome because it was President Monson's first act as Prophet of the church. Elders Bednar and Nelson were there also. Pres. Monson was sooo funny! He was making jokes and smiling the whole time, while still appreciating the impoprtance of the event. When they sealed in the corner stone he called up a few children to participate, it was really cute. It was really nice to see how excited the members of the community were because they have been waiting for this temple for so long. Anyways, it was a great Sunday... until it was time to leave and it took us 40 min. to get out of the parking lot... jeez.
This morning when we woke up Rexburg was covered in a thick fog. When we came out of the deication, the sun was shining brighter than it has in weeks and it was atually WARM! The Lord was smiling down on Rexburg today :)
Waiting in the Parking Lot
When we got home from the dedication, I decided to see how deep the snow was on out patio ---Not a good idea. P.S. Can you find the temple in this picture?

Isn't President Monson awesome? We got to see him about a month ago in Vista, just before President Hinckley passed away, and he is just so animated! I bet the dedication was beautiful!! It almost makes me want to be in Rexburg again...almost.
I'm jealous! I wanted to go :)
I am cracking up right now with the music on your blog. Mmm Bop and the full house theme. That is too funny!
