Temple Lights 2011

The week of Christmas, we decided to take a quick trip to Mesa.  While we were there, we met up with the always awesome, Gina and Travis Stevens.  They met us at our hotel and we walked over to Pete's Fish and Chips (Miles had never been) and then walked around the temple lights since Miles had never been to that either!  It was crazy crowded but the lights were gorgeous, as usual! Unfortunately we didn't get any pics with Gina and Travis, but Travis did snap these two for us!!! Afterwards, we went back to our hotel and introduced them to "Man v. Food" and watched a few episodes.  It was a great time and we loved being with our good friends!


On a quick side-note.  The next day Miles woke up SO SICK!  We were suppose to go home that day and ended up having to stay one more day. Also, our niece passed away suddenly that morning after a brief illness.  I was worried about how ill he was and with the added stress of the passing of our niece, I aksed Travis to come over and give Miles a blessing.  In turn, Miles was also able to give Travis one.  What a testimony builder.  Both blessings were powerful and the Spirit was very strong.  It re-affirmed the power of the priesthood to me.  I am so grateful for a husband and friend, who when in need, are able to provide some comfort and relief.
