Temple Time!!

The Tillman's at the Dallas Temple

Alan and I were shocked at how long it has been since we have been to the Temple!  I think this is the first time for 2013, and we have never been that bad....so we have some repenting to do and some reorganizing of priorities....not that Charlotte isn't an awesome priority, but we still need to make time to see and do both!

We had the perfect excuse Saturday!  Monica Tillman (Who's father was Bishop of our Ward and Alan was his counselor for 4 yrs) went to the temple today to take out her endowments to prepare for leaving on a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to Brazil!  She is such an amazing young woman, one I have always admired for her spirituality, integrity, and maturity!  She will be an awesome missionary and we were so excited to get to be apart of this special day!

I did get a kick out of the fact that she speaks Spanish, but in Brazil they speak Portuguese and so she has to learn a new language anyway!

Ben and Rosa were extremely happy and proud too!  Ben said that he was just thinking about how it wasn't that long ago and it was his parents going with him to the temple to prepare to leave on a mission.  That it brought back lots of memories today!  It was fun to be at the Temple with Willden's but we

 kind of laughed that we live on the same street and we didn't think about coming together....missed opportunity!  But it was great to be with them and Ben Hepworth as he came to be with Monica in the temple too!
