We went to St. George for Michelle Brady's wedding (One of Uncle Jack's daughters.) It has been a while since we've been anywhere so we booked two rooms for Thurs. and Fri. night. This morning we attended the breakfast and then Joel, Mardi and I attended the temple. (We dropped the other girls at the hotel so the baby could nap.) No one told us we would have to wear temple clothing (the room she was getting married in was literally IN the Celestial Room) and we hadn't brought any nor had we brought any cash. So, we walked away from the lady who told us we would need white clothing and headed for the waiting room. Another lady approached us and said she would take care of it and that we would not have to miss the wedding because of clothes. I thought that was very sweet. While we waited I realized that I had handed Joel some cash in the hotel room before we'd come and even though it may not cover the cost of our clothes, at least it something.
At the end when everyone stands to hug the couple, he went up to his tiny Grandma and I suddenly pictured Grandma Brady. I teared and realized that she was probably there, along with other spirits I hadn't thought to consider might be there. I suppose that anytime I go to the temple is an opportunity for me to connect with them.
