1, 2, 3......6 Months Down, Eternity to GO!

Wedding Day; April 24th, 2015 
TEMPLE MARRIAGE.........If you would have asked me 5 years ago, if I'd marry in the LDS temple, I would have laughed in your face and said heavens no and I wouldn't have said heavens, but a word that isn't appropriate to say. I wasn't active and living a lifestyle that I'm not proud to admit, but humbly I know that when I do, it reminds me that I've grown and what I never want to become again. When I met my husband he was also inactive, I guess you could say that we saved each other, because lord knows he SAVED me.

Manti Temple

When I met my now husband as I stated before I wasn't following the word of wisdom, praying, reading my scriptures, or attending church weekly. Now it wasn't because someone offended me or that I didn't believe that the teachings were true, I very much knew that they were true in my heart, its because it was easier to not live righteously. Society today has made it easier to do so. I'm so very grateful that I had someone to stand by my side and become more spiritually fed as we were preparing to marry in the temple. It was a long and hard road to fix ourselves, but I couldn't have done it without all of the encouragement of Kirk, along with family and friends.

Kirk will never know how much he saved me back then. I cannot imagine my life without my Kirky Turkey, (yes when he reads this he won't be thrilled that I used his nickname, but I love it and its enduring from me.) When I knelt at the alter in the beautiful Manti Temple I knew right then and there I would never live another day without Kirk or my savior Jesus Christ in my life. My love has grown much more then I ever thought possible for my husband. Thus far in our marriage we have; learned to counsel each other, love more, laugh, agree to disagree, strengthen each other, trust, dance in the dinning room, pray together, read the scriptures together, walk into church hand in hand, receive callings and last but not least attend the temple regularly. These are just some of the many blessing the lord has brought to us and I know there are more to come. I can't imagine not having these blessing and not having the one man who waited ever so patiently for me as I did for him. My father in heaven brought me the man of my dreams, even though I wasn't always the strongest, but his faith in me never quit and in return I shall do the same.
Mr. and Mrs. Larson

Happy 6th Month Anniversary to us, here's to eternity.......
