My Temple trip

Me and My Dad
The gang. Marci.Dad.Lexie.Me.Nikki.Jenn.Tisha.Rob is behind the camera and Joanne. Brett. and Sarah left before pictures!
The Temple is right in the middle of Lincoln center. Right in the heart of Manhattan. I just love that you can see the cab creeping in this shot. That is truly how it is, the hustle and bustle of NYC and in it's midst the house of the Lord. While it is not a great temple for taking pictures in front of or anything like that it is an amazingly beautiful place and surprisingly quiet!

The Manhattan temple.
So the last few weeks have been a whirl wind of fun so I'm finally getting a chance to blog what's been going on in my world! First things first I went to the temple and received my endowment! I was very excited and super happy to be doing it finally! My high school BFF Tisha came up from North Carolina and was my escort. It was amazing to have her there with me as we have seen each other through so many things I couldn't have imagined going with out her. It was obviously a very special and sacred experience and I have been back and have loved it. My Dad was there with me as well which made it all the more special! By the way I love my G's!!
