Great Temple Experience

I've been working for almost 3 years to find Ken's relatives so that we could do the temple work for them. Finally, I had enough names researched and gathered to take some of them to the temple.  On Friday, Ken and I went to the Snowflake temple - I wish I had had my camera with me.  We were there in the evening, and it was so pretty with the lights - it just seemed to glow.
Ken was able to do the baptisms for his grandfather, great-grandfather and a few other men in his family tree.  After he was baptized, he baptized me for his grandmother, great-grandmother, and  a few other women in his family.  What an amazing experience - not only to do the work for our own relatives, but to also have Ken perform the ordinances.
