Virginia Via Atlanta

This week Mark's brother and sister-in-law got sealed to each other in the Raleigh LDS Temple. The great thing about being married in the temple is that when you die you still get to be married to your love! None of this "'till death do you part" stuff. When you wed in our temples you are pronounced husband and wife for all time and eternity, it is SO wonderful! I love weddings, but especially temple weddings. Mark couldn't come out for the ceremony, but we figured it all evened out because I couldn't go to their civil wedding. I forgot my camera so I have stolen some pictures from Mark's cousin Stephanie (thanks dear).

Waiting for the Happy Couple.

It was a great week with Mark's family, but a definite highlight of my trip was my layover at the Atlanta airport. Weird huh...an exciting layover? It totally was though! My flights were scheduled around my sister-in-law Mary Susan's flight schedule so I had over 3 hours to kill. I happened to text my best friend Kristi as I was eating lunner and she decided to bring her sweet little family down to the airport to see me. I haven't seen Kristi in more than a year, nor had I ever met sweet baby Jack. It was a short visit and I am pretty sure the Hoffmans spent just as much time driving as they did chatting with me. I am thankful they did though!
