Burnham Bees & Wildflowers: A Week Of Changes

Last week was a big week for us. On Wednesday the 13th, we went to the Mesa, AZ Temple to have our little family be sealed for Time and all Eternity. In our church we have been given the knowledge that families can be together forever. I cannot think of a more precious blessing. I wasn’t sure if I was going to blog about this. It is very special and private to me, but I felt the need to share my testimony. I know that our Church is true, that Jesus Christ lives and that he has sent us Prophets to guide us in these latter days and I know that by going to the Temple this past week and following the commandments that I will be able to spend Eternity with my family. I really am so grateful to all our family and friends who helped this experience perfect. For more information on the Latter Day Saints click this link.http://mormon.org/

On a lighter note, it was also my Birthday and Valentine’s Day!!! Benjamin was able to spend both days off with Belle and I. It was wonderful. He got me a couple books I have been wanting forever and beautiful flowers. The day of my birthday he woke me up to eggs and pancakes with homemade syrup, it was delicious Mmmm. We stopped by Firehouse Subs for my free sub for lunch. It was yummy, though I prefer Jimmy John’s; their homemade bread is the cincher! That evening after the Temple, we celebrated at Red Robin with all our friends and family… it ended up being almost 40 people but they put our table together quick. I signed up that day for my free birthday burger, but I guess it takes 24 hours to activate. That was pretty annoying, but you can get your free burger any time during your birthday month. I will go get it as soon as Gracelyn gives me one of my many mean burger cravings ha ha. Valentine’s Day was pretty boring (which is my favorite). We went to Walmart and stocked up on the junk food we never buy and got a couple free red boxes. We watched “Frankenweinie” which was just weird, and “Here Comes the Boom” which I loved. It’s hard to find good PG movies these days!! Anyway, I’m sorry this is so long. I’ll shut up and leave with you with some pictures. What did you do for Lovers Day?!
