I Love to Date at the Temple...

Date #6- Do a session at your local temple

I officially declare this blog resurrected from the dead! After months of my husband being in California and me being in Texas, we were finally reunited last month. Which means we have quite a few catching up dates to take care of. The year is half way over and we still have about 46 dates to go on if we are going to meet my 2012 resolution. It's going to be hard and we might not make it, but we sure as heck are going to give it our best!

So we are now living in California. Many of my dates were based on things to do in Dallas/Fort Worth, such as "Visit the Grassy Knoll and Book Depository". So I'm having to improvise a lot of the dates. Good thing I'm spontaneous. :-) 

However, one date idea can be done almost anywhere you go. And that idea is to visit the temple. WAIT! Before you dismiss this idea and call me boring, hear me out. Going to the temple and doing a session are some of the most bonding experiences that Dave and I have ever had. It gives us a chance to look at our lives, to put things back in perspective, and we never fail to receive revelation when we need it. Wouldn't a date that has a free entrance fee, promises eternal happiness, and deeply connects you to your spouse be totally worth doing? Try it and find out. 

It was our first time visiting the Los Angeles temple and it was absolutely beautiful. I know we're not supposed to judge from the outside, but if I'm being honest, I prefer a pretty temple. But our experience inside was more beautiful than all the landscaping and architecture on the outside.
