One of the things we really wanted to do while we were in Oregon was go through a session at the Portland Temple. Luckily my parents came to Oregon for the weekend to join us on our vacation, so they so kindly watched Connor while Donovan and I went to the temple. The Portland temple is the first temple I remember going through for an open house as a little girl. I have always wanted to go back and attend a session in this beautiful temple. I am so grateful to have an eternal marriage and a worthy priesthood holder as my husband and the head of our household who can accompany me into the house of the Lord. Sometimes the journey can be a little rough and bumpy but I am so grateful to have the gospel in our home, and to be able to walk with Connor outside the temple and teach him about eternal families.
What a fun vacation! Glad you got away, but glad to have you back!
