Jeff and I were able to be sealed by our neighbor Jackie Orton. He is an incredible man whom I have known for nearly 10 years and Jeff has known for about 2. He gave us some great advice and it meant even more coming from someone who we knew, really knew us. But my favorite part about Brother Orton sealing is us that now EVERY time I see him I am reminded of the special covenants we made that day!
Jeff and I after the sealing outside the temple.
We had so many wonderful people there to support us. When I looked around the Sealing I was pretty sure I was in Heaven! Here is a list of everyone who attended our sealing. Again, its long so feel free to SKIP!
Several of my cousins came: Abby, Shera, Katie, Michon, Collin, Brent, Amy and Trish.
My cousin Jen was also there but she is more like a Sister than a cousin.
Several of my Aunts/Uncles came: Julie and Wendee. My Aunt Carolyn and Uncle Steve were there as well, more like parents than Aunt/Uncle.
Jeff had several friends come: Clay and Lisa Broadbent who have been friends for 20+ years. Jeff also worked for Clay for several years at Reminderband/Ifrogz. Jenell and Blake Murri who traveled all the way from Idaho Falls. They are great friends to both of us and I was so excited they were there. Scott and Jenae Huskinson who are more like family. They are the most incredible friends in the world and some of my favorite people EVER!
Jeff's sweet sister DiannaMarie came from Idaho Falls and his brother Bob and Sister Jackie came from Murray. We were so excited they were all there.
One of my oldest and best friends Jen Rouelle came to support us. Love her!
So many of our wonderful friends from Wellsville were there. It will be easier for me to put them in a list:)
Spencer and Jenny Robbins: Neighbors and Jenny and I serve together in the R.S. Their kids are friends with our kids and we LOVE them dearly.
Juanita Malm: Best Friend Ever!! Supportive in every way possible!
Paula Murray: Relief Society President who I have been serving with. Such a wonderful dedicated lady.
Ingrid Wall: I have been serving with her in the Relief Society Presidency and she is one of the most wonderful ladies I know!
Carolyn Orton: Carolyn's husband was our Sealer and it was so great to have her there. They are truly some of the greatest examples ever.
Bishop and Heather Brown: Heather has been a great friend of mine for many years!
Ben and Molly Leishman: Ben is in our Bishopric and Molly has been a great friend for many years. Loved having them there.
Lannis and Carl Sorenson: Lannis is one of my closest friends in the world. We go to Women's Conference every year and she is one of the most supportive people I know!
President and Laurie Tippets: Wow! No words for these two. President Tippets was my Bishop when I got divorced and words can't express the love and support I have felt from this man and his wife!
Matt and Kim Turnbow: These two people are some of the most real and wonderful people I know. Kim tended Jordie from the time she was 6 weeks old until she went to 1st grade. They have blessed mine and Jordan's life beyond words!We truly are indebted so these two awesome people!
Everyone one of my Brothers, Brother in laws, Sisters and Sister in laws were there! Wow!! I have the best family ever! My Brother are always fun and supportive. Shea and Adam have mowed my lawn, fixed my house and done everything possible to help me when I was single. Kim and Jill are the best friends EVER! What a blessing to life day to day with these two incredible ladies! Jill spent many of her years as a single college girl helping me with my kids. Kim lives across the street from me and as we speak Jord is over at Kim's having a sleep over. Raising kids with Kim and Jill is an incredible blessing.
Mom and Dad: Best people ever! They have been the most supportive and patient parents in the world!
All of these people are people who have loved and supported both Jeff and I. People we are humbled and blessed to have in our lives.
Jeff and I were also blessed to have all of our kids (except Chase) and nieces and nephews there when we came out of the temple. Just an incredible day! Here are a few of the many photos:
