I love to see the temple...

So...I had a wedding yesterday in SL. Greg got work off to go with me (which I was SO GRATEFUL for!) I always freak out the night before and up until the actual wedding, so having him drive down with me, was calming. When I woke up (at 6:30 in the AM! UGH!!) it was RAINING!!! Weather forecast said rain all day too, so that's another reason I was happy to have Greg come...he could hold the umbrella! :) Before we left, we said a prayer...praying for "cooperative weather." Little did I know what kind of cooperative weather we'd get. It was PERFECT!!! It was overcast while we were at the temple, and SUNNY for the INDOOR reception! Oh my heck. It was fabulous! How grateful I was for such 'cooperative' weather. Anyway, so we get to SL about 8:45. The ceremony is at 9. So we just park and wait for a while. I never know what time the ceremonies will get over because they are all different. So I decide to wait until about 10 after and I walk up to the temple. There is like no one in the waiting room, so I go to the restroom. When I come out I noticed that there was a group of people in there now. So I just went outside to wait. I only knew Jenny and her mom, so of course both of them are going to be in the temple still. So I ask these people that had walked out if they were there for the wedding. And they were...lol, that was the SHORTEST ceremony I've ever known...All my other SL wedddings lasted what seemed like FOREVER! So that was good...anyway....to make a long story short...the happy came out and we did pictures for about an hour. When we are done I walked back to the car, where Greg was. Now the ceremony wasn't until 6 that night, and it was now 11. We didn't have anything planned, but when Greg went to start the car.....IT WOULDN'T START! We had left the lights on the entire time I was at the temple! hmm...so.....what to do, right?!? We just sat in the car for probably 30 -45 minutes before it started getting really hot in the car (did I mention the cooperative weather?!). We decided to go for a walk, so we walked around the conference center, then over to the visitor's center where we walked around the grounds, then inside. It was so much fun. Its so relaxing there, and everything was so pretty. The flowers were in bloom, and I wish I had my camera when we walked around. But....Here are some pics of the LAST time I was down there...in the bitter cold and no flowers, however it always seems to be absolutely gorgeous!!






Anyway...that's my day yesterday in a really short story!!!!
