Heaven on Earth

I spent a few hours here today...




The Winter Quarters LDS Temple in Omaha, NE. Gorgeous, peaceful, and the closest I can get to my Father in Heaven while on this earth. We took Tate and did baptisms. He LOVED doing it and asked if we could come back once a month. Yes, son! Its a great goal we will have to work to acheive. To see my 12-year old son embracing his beliefs, the temple, the ordinace performed, the Spirit felt...its indescribable and this has been one of the most fulfilling days of my life. I haven't uploaded the few pics we took afterwards, but will soon. Until then...here are a few more of the temple itself. The history behind Winter Quarters is unbelieveable and I encourage anyone reading this post to explore here.

Yellllooooo Yellow!


Could this be it? Praying for something hasn't felt this necessary and urgent in a while! Butterflies in my tummy, tingly nerves, restless legs...this is how I know I am 100% in love with this house. Verbal offer was accepted tonight and written offer will be submitted tomorrow morning. What?! Did that really just happen?!
