A time to reflect

April 20, 1973 Provo Temple, Utah 9am

Today is a special day. 36years ago, my parents got married. Not only married for time, but for Eternity. This is even more special because 9years ago my dad died of Melanoma skin cancer. So I was thinking awhile ago about my mom and the picture of the Provo Temple where my parents were married and how broken the picture was. It was liturally taped together. The glass was cracked from one corner to another and in need of a face lift. Well, me and my sister Tamra were able to come together and get my mom a new picture. I was wanting to also put one of those plates on the front and put a special thing on it but ran out of time and money. She loved it anyways and as we were walking out of the room that it was in( mine/ the computer room) she started to cry. Now for some reason, us kids have always tried to get our mom to cry on holidays and special days. That wasn't neccesarily the goal in mind this time but it happened. I know that it ment alot. We love you Mom, Grandma!! HAPPY 36th ANNIVERSARY!! Thanks Tamra for the help.

  1. How exciting! I didn't know you guys were doing something. Next time let me know and we'd love to participate. The picture looks great! Way to go on making her cry. (Just so everyone knows, we try and make you cry for Joy, Love, Memories, etc not just to be mean!)
