Nothing extraordinary today, but we are getting into a sort of comfortable routine.  Walk—perhaps some laundry--maybe practice at the church—work on Relief Society lesson—study a little—and then get ready and go to the temple.  The weather is just beautiful and I realize that it will eventually change and we won’t be prepared for that.

We both were able to help with Spanish ordinances in the temple today and it was really fun.  Many Spanish-speaking people are expected tomorrow and we have been asked to go from 2:00 until 10:00-10:30. We hope to maintain our stamina and hope to rejuvenate on Sunday.  The temple will be open Monday, Columbus Day, until 1:00 p.m. and it is expected to be a very busy day.

I love this beautiful temple and all the great, great people we are meeting and getting to know.  The temple presidency members are very spiritual leaders who are overtly patron-oriented and determined that each one who comes to the temple has the best possible positive experience.  We are all striving to become more Christ-like and feel His presence in the temple.  Our prayer is that our family members will make time when possible amidst busy family, work, and school schedules to attend each of their respective temples and search for spiritual knowledge, confirmation of truths, and personal direction.  Love to each one!!
