Jeff and I took out our endowments, at the Bountiful Temple, the day before the wedding. It was an amazing experience and I developed a love for being going to the temple. The sense of peace of mind and self is so comforting. Our families came down to go through with us and that meant the world to us. I love my family and I know if I ever need someone that they will be there.
Jeff and I had to be at the Salt Lake Temple a good hour and a half before the actually sealing ceremony. We got to spend some time just us in the temple and that was so great on such a busy day. Before we got sealed our sealer came to talk to us. He was really old, 92 to be exact, and didn't look to well. In mid sentence he looked like he was about to pass out and he stumbled into the room next to us. He came out a little bit later and said he had to leave. He left extremely slowly and bracing himself on the wall with every step. We hope he is okay, we never did find out. So at this point we were without sealer, but one of the lady's by us ran and went to go find someone else. We were lucky and about 15 minutes later they had found another guy and they fixed our paperwork. The other sealer had already signed our marriage certificate, so on it you can see where they used some white out or something to cover his name. A memory we will always have with us. In the end we were married and sealed together for all eternity. We couldn't be happier.
Another funny story about our sealing was when we were getting ready to leave and our sealer said "Sister Edminster will you stand here." It didn't even occur to me that he was talking to me. I thought it was talking to Jeff's mom and so did she. Goodness, I am now Katie Edminster. That's so crazy, but I love the sound of it. We've been married now for over 2 months and I am still not used to it. Part of that is probably, because at work I still have to use my maiden name.
After the temple we did the temple picture thing, of course. Here are some of the pictures taken. Enjoy!
