Mr. & Mrs. Spencer Bennion!What a great day! It is always so wonderful to see 2 people get sealed for time and eternity. It reminds me of the day we were sealed as a family and we knelt together as an eternal family.I was fortunate to have my mom invite me to go out for Emily's wedding and fortunate to have my brother help to get me out there. We flew early in the a.m. from ST. George to SLC and then straight out to Atlanta. For this small town girl it was a big trip and a little scary. I am no traveler and I definitely haven't flown a lot. As we were taxiing out a young man ion our flight from SLC to Atlanta passed out I think I heard some reference to a diabetic seizure. SO we were slightly delayed. Funny thing was my brother and sister in law who do travel have never had anything like that happen. It wasn't enough to rattle this girl despite my lack of flying experience. We arrived in ATlanta and can I just say from what I saw Huge airport and packed with people. From there we went to our Hotel and then to dinner which was a long slow southern dinner I think somewhere in the neighborhood of 3 hours long. I have been told dinner in Atlanta is always long. It was nice to visit with everyone. Up early the next day to head off to the temple for the sealing. It was beautiful. We then waited for about 1.5 hours for pictures. You may not be able to tell but it was hot not the dry heat hear but a hot thick sir heat that makes you weak and faint. We snapped a few pics and waited inside till she came out.  Not only was it hot it was bright. Later we had our lunch did a bit of shopping and then drove to Tennessee. I was amazed by the flora can I just say hello trees and brush. I took some pics with my phone but it is now not working sorry you missed it. The reception was beautiful. After a long day of driving and enjoying I was pooped I mean really pooped. I now understand why southern women are known for taking their time. Sunday we went to church with my brother which was awesome. He is the bishop in their small little ward and I just loved it. The people gave great talks and really made me appreciate the gospel that I love and hold dear to my heart. We spent a great day chilling out at Jasons and then flew home the next day. It was a great trip. I loved it I think I could be a traveler maybe not spend 6 hours in a plane with out a meal though. That was a little tough. However it was interesting to see such a different enviroment. I loved it. When we got home I was grateful I live in the desert it warms my soul. Being home is wonderful.
Sorry there is no video with the magnolia. They just say the south to me. This cute red thing was interesting
