I had an opportunity to go back to the temple today and do work for the dead. As a second time back it was still absolutely wonderful <3
I was meant to meet up with a group of Sisters in a missionary group on Facebook, we were supposed to meet at 930 and go to the 10am session, but I got there later than arranged and missed meeting up with them. Nontheless I still went in to get dressed and go through the session, and had plenty of help where it was needed :)
Next week my friend Kim and I are planning on baptisms for the dead, and I would like to go once more for another session next week as well. It's an amazing and peaceful place that I feel blessed to be able to go to, it's so wonderful that there are so many temples so close by for us to go to where I live, and so wonderful that we are building more around the world for others to make it easier for them to go, as well!

I have an uplifting thought that I want to share today. I've been listening to 107.5fm (K-LOVE)... I started listening to it several months back after a good friend of mine in the church recommended it. I've starting to listen to it more and more, and on my way home from the temple today one of my favorite songs started to play. I think it ties in perfectly with D&C 84:88, "...I will go before your face. I will e on your right hand and on your left, and my Spirit shall be in your hearts, and mine angels round about you, to bear you up."
The song is "Whom Shall I Fear [God of Angel Armies]" by Chris Tomlin.
Well loves, that's my post for today. Loves all, and keep smiling :)
Love, Sera

Well, yesterday was my first temple trip <3
It was such an amazing day!!
I went with Gramma Laura up to the Brigham City temple, we had to be there at 4pm... When I got changed into my temple clothes, before I was taken further on, I got to go into the bride's room with gram (she was my escort) and talk. It was so beautiful <3<3
Then the rest of the time was the most amazing of all, seeing so many family and friends walk in, receiving my endowments, everything that I was able to do and see... The temple is such a gorgeous place and it's so peaceful to go, I'm so happy for the blessed opportunity I had to attend yesterday!! I hope I might be able to go back at least once or twice in the next little while... I leave in just 31 days! WOW it's coming up fast!! Still quite a bit to do, it's going to be a jam packed week this week... Well all, just a short update, keep smiling as always, it's wonderful!! :) Love until next time!

Love, Sera

AHHH well I now officially have my first temple recommend!!!
I am so excited!
It was official as of last Wednesday evening, and now I have an appointment THIS SATURDAY to go to the temple!!!
I get to go through Bountiful, which is pretty exciting because that's the one my dad went to as well.. I didn't even know that until after I scheduled my appointment!
I need to call them back and tell them there are a few more guests than I'd originally said... But nontheless, I am very excited and looking forward to this Saturday evening!
It's unbelievable how fast time is moving and how much has been happening! Two of my best friends, who are on missions, can email their friends now. One of them left 5 months ago and the other  one 4 months, and one of my other friends left on her mission 4 months ago too... and now I leave in 37 days!!!
I went today to the distribution center in Layton to get my temple clothes and garments and I'm counting down the days till Saturday... I can't wait!!
Well, that's it for now update wise... Till next time, keep smiling!!! :D


Love, Sera
