I want to share with my friends + family what a rewarding day it was to be at this wedding. The big surprise for the day was that Brother Hall was at the temple with his daughter. He prepared himself and was endowed about a week before the wedding. The family kept it a secret from me - I was SO excited to see him in the temple! What a long way this family has come since I first met them 5 years ago. I felt like it was my own daughter getting married. What an incredible experience to be a part of all this - very rewarding for all that hard work as a missionary.

congratulations.

A big congratulations to Allison on her wedding day. I met Allison while I was on my mission. I was able to teach her and see her get baptized! I became good friends with her and her family - I served in their ward in Malibu for 7 months. Now Gregg and I are so excited to be part of her wedding! More pictures to come...

Thanks to my very thoughtful sister-in-law Tara for getting me the second Stephanie Meyer book to ready on our trip to California.

news.

ARCHES NATIONAL PARK, Utah - One of the largest and most photographed stone arches in Arches National Park has collapsed.

Wall Arch fell sometime early last week, though no one has reported seeing it collapse, said Paul Henderson, the park's chief of interpretation.

He said the arch, located along the popular Devils Garden Trail, was claimed by forces that will eventually destroy other arches in the park: gravity and erosion.
