Manti in January, Manti in July

The big news this month is that my brother Sam proposed to his beautiful girlfriend Ashley.

She said yes.

I couldn’t be happier for the both of them or ask for a greater sister-in-law-to-be. Ashley has already become a valuable part of our family, so I’m glad she is here to stay.

(Wow, I just started crying…what’s wrong with me?)

Anyway, the details are still being worked out because their situation is complicated. But hopefully they will be married in the Manti temple this summer, perhaps July!

While I’m talking about the Manti temple, here’s T.J. and I freezing on the front steps after Karen’s sealing. Hopefully it will be a little warmer this summer.
