The decorations were so cute. This is a good fund raiser for the OHS Cheerleaders. Carlie had a great time. What a blessing that she can cheer for Orem. She loves it and enjoys the other cheerleaders. We love you Carlie. You are so fun to have in our home.

This is in the cellar of the Willard Richards home. The stones on the wall are from the original Nauvoo Temple. We had a wonderful time. I love church history and I love my family and I love the temple. We spent over half the day in the Nauvoo temple. My dad's wife Lila had her family names. We were able to do the work for her parent's and other family members. This was wonderful for Lila to be sealed to her parents. The blessings of the temple are wonderful. I am know that this is the Lords work and I am greatful to be a part of it.
