The Vance's Sealing

So this weekend was amazing! For Christmas I got my mom's grandparents names ready to go to the temple. Greg and I went and did their baptisms and confirmations, My little brother and his wife did their initiatories and my older brother and his wife did their endowments. Then I took the temple name slips and made a wedding announcement that said, "Vivien Marie Gordon and Robert H. Vance request the honor of your presence at their temple sealing to be held at your earliest convenience, at the temple of your choosing." and we gave it to my mom for Christmas. We videotaped her opening it and she loved it. Well Saturday we finally got everyone together and went to the Mesa Temple and sealed my Great-Grandparents together! It was such an amazing experience. My Great Grandma died almost 2 years ago and I had spent most of my summers with her staying at our house so I really knew and loved her. My great Grandfather died before I was born and so I never knew him. But now after spending time in the temple on their behalf I feel closer to them now than I ever have and I am so grateful for this experience.
