Temple Trip

Unbelievable!
McKinnley is 12 and old enough to head to the temple. We were Lucky enough to go for a youth temple trip a few weeks ago. It was so much Fun! McKinnley must have been the Cutest 12 year old the Orlando Temple has ever seen. She was just Glowing and couldn't stop Smiling! It was so fun to be the one to stand at the top of the font and watch her every move, then when we were finished I was able to wrap her up in a warm towel. When the girls were finished, they sat in the waiting room and sang there favorite primary songs. They sounded like Angles!
I Love you McKinnley. I am one Lucky Mom!
After we were all finished we headed to eat Pizza then off for some yummy Ice Cream!
We couldn't help but Celebrate!
It was a Wonderful Day!

AWESOME! I still remember my first trip to the temple as a young women. To this day the Mesa temple is my FAVORITE! The Orlando temple is gorgeous!! How wonderful that you were there together. Sounds like you have a great group of YW. I bet you are the BEST leader EVER!

I can only imagine the wonderful experience you had and spirit that was there. I am sure you both will never forget that moment! (By the way how do you have a 12 year old! You look like your 20 and could pass as her sis!) Where does the time go?
luv ya

A day to remember always. McKinnley I can just picture your beautiful smiling face all dressed in white. I am so glad you had your mom with you! Next time you come back here lets all go. That would be so much fun and of course get some pizza and ice cream too!

McKinnly is so special. I just know that those people she was baptized for are so grateful for her. Definitely a cause for celebration!

It was a great day! McKinnley was so fun to watch. I do not think I saw her with out a huge smile on her face the whole day. What a special spirit she is. I am sure Kinnely also enjoyed being there with you as much as you enjoyed being with her.

That is such an exciting experience and I can't help but remember my first time whenever I go to the temple still. I LOVE THE ORLANDO TEMPLE and have so many fun memories of youth temple trips to that temple. Before that temple was built, we had to travel to the ATL temple (17 hrs on a bus...ugh!), so I am so grateful that McKinnley has the opportunity to be closer than I was.

What a Happy Temple Trip for you McKinnley! I am so proud that you are worthy and anxious to go to the temple. The temple is my favorite place on earth. I am with Kim, next time we are together lets all go to the temple. Grandpa wants to Baptise you too someday. He says to tell you he love you, I do too!

Kelly HI!!! I can't believe you have a 12 year old! Time really does fly. Can I just tell you how much I love blogs. It has been so fun to see you and your darling family, and get to know them with little glimpses into your lives. So glad you're doing well, and your daughter is beautiful!
