Celebrating at the Temple!




I hope my 3 readers aren't sick of all our anniversary stuff!!  We spent one more day celebrating. We had always planned to go to the temple and do sealings.  On the way, we stopped for lunch at a place called "Le Pain Quotidien" which a friend had mentioned to me in passing.  We decided to try it and we were so happy to find it was a bakery that makes organic bread and mostly organic food!!  We got agave sweetened mint lemonade.  We got salad and quiche.  We bought a seeded bread to go that I could not stop eating until it was gone!  I was so happy to find that there is one in Pasadena that I can go to!!

We then went to the temple.  What a sweet experience we had!  For the past ten years, we have gone almost every year to the temple to do sealings for our anniversary.  Every time we have gone, we've gone to one of the rooms that are on the floor above the Celestial room.  This time, we somehow got to do sealings in the very room that we were married in!  We were married in room 2, which is off the the Celestial room.  So we got to sit on the bench we sat on when we were married and kneel at the very same altar!  (We even got to give each other a kiss!)  We also got to sit in the Celestial room when we were done, which was such a treat.  We sat and savored the peacefulness for about a half an hour.  We didn't want to leave, except that we had a dinner reservation to make!

Is this the Los Angeles temple? There are so many these days that I can't keep 'em all straight. :)
