Sealing


Dan and I were married December 23, 2004 but only civilly because Dan was not yet able to get clearance to be sealed to a second wife because he was married before. We had to wait almost 3 years in order for us to be cleared to be sealed because our paperwork was lost the first time we applied and it took another year to get it filed again once we moved to Utah and started over with a new bishop. We were so greatful when we finally got permission and were sealed on August 11, 2007. Because we were already married we didn't want to make a huge deal of the event so I went with a more modern/casual dress and we just had a small open house that evening to celebrate with close friends and family. Dan and I consider it a huge blessing that we were able to be sealed in the temple and can return to the temple to be reminded of the commitment we made to eachother and our Heavenly Father. This commitment has helped us through many trials and difficult times and I hope we never take for granted the privilage we have to attend the temple.
