Alma 7:25

And may the Lord bless you, and keep your garments spotless, that ye may at last be brought to sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and the holy prophets who have been ever since the world began, having your garments spotless even as their garments are spotless, in the kingdom of heaven to go no more out.

The ordinances of the temple are the principal ordinances of the Abrahamic covenant.

I got up at six this morning with James Hayden, Jared's son on my mind. I wanted to write him a letter but I don't have his address. I thought I could message Jeanie Wallen and get it. I thought about this but never acted upon it. I started remembering how he treated Jared and those feelings of wanting to communicate with him dissipated.

I left at 9:30 this morning to pick up Catherine Halcomb to go to the temple. She talked the entire way and I listened. This is one of the reasons I like taking her to the temple. She needs someone to talk to. She says she is very lonely. 

I dropped Catherine off in front of the temple while I went to find a parking space. We made it to the session in plenty of time. 

I always enjoy the peace and quiet of the temple but I must say I had a hard time staying awake in the session. We each said a prayer when we were in the celestial room and then we were on our way.

We stopped at Sonic on the way home and each of us got a slinger chicken sandwich and Catherine got a small Dr. Pepper.

When I got home I took a nap and finished my movie, "The Girl Who Believes in Miracles." 

For dinner I made chicken tenders with onion gravy, rice, and broccoli. 

James picked up the tires for the Razr this afternoon. Now Jared Ammon can continue his rides looking for wildlife.

Kacey texted me today and she had some news about Tanner which is heartbreaking. Kacey seemed so sad and my heart went out to her.

James and I walked and listened to our book, "Love Unseen."
