Any way, I get my turn in the font, the guy baptizes me for five names, just like always, and I am going to get out and one of the witnesses says to me, "The names you just did are from the Ukraine." And I thought "Oh ok.... cool. Random, but cool." but then he finished by saying "They are preparing these names for the Ukraine temple that will be dedicated on the 24th" I thought that was pretty cool that I got to have part in that! Kinda cool that those names will be sent the Ukraine temple and be finished there! Maybe its not so cool as I think it is....but it made me feel a little special! :)
And, on a random side note.... I just want to say how wonderfully awesome and fabulous the temple is. This morning I felt like life was pretty drab and I didn't want to go back to school on Monday, and that i wasn't cut out to be a teacher....and now after the temple I just feel so calm and peaceful and like I could go back to school. I know Heavenly Father loves me so much. I can tell I am doing what I am supposed to because of the way he blesses me. I am so grateful that he has a plan for me, and helps me see I'm on the right track, EVEN THOUGH that track isn't always rainbows and butterflies! :) I love the gospel and the temple!

That's a really cool experience! And I completely agree about the temple. I don't think I would have been able to make it through this summer with David gone without the temple. Every time I felt like there was no way I'd be able to make it any farther, I'd go to the temple and it helped me get through a few more days until I went again. I love the temple!
that is way cool kels!! and i love your new blog look :) very appropriate.
I would have to agree with you, the temple is an amazing place to recharge. That is a pretty awesome experience!! I went just yesterday for pretty much the same reason!! Glad you got to go and have a great experience!
When I read your facebook status I thought you talking about cell phone batteries, haha, and I was like 'what? To recharge her cell phone batteries in the temple???"!! =)
I got some pics of the Ukraine temple in my email this week from the church website! It's beautiful isn't it? I love it when they send me pics of the new temples around the world.
