A Beautiful Sealing

Today Cody and Shelley were sealed for time and all eternity in the St. George temple. I especially enjoyed this sealing than others I have attended because their twins, Jenna and Jace were sealed to them as well. Circumstances beyond their control prevented them from being sealed in the beginning and after having to wait a year and twins later it all came together for them and what a joyous time. The phrase that comes to my mind is, "Truth will prevail!" All of the adults and the twins in the front in this first picture attended the sealing. All 14 of the 16 Stout children were in attendance the other two being the youngest ones. Afterward it was a great opportunity for Wynn and Phyllis to have pictures taken with their children as it became apparent that this may possibly be the last time for a long time to have them all together. The first family picture is by age and as you can tell the ones on each end are the youngest. (We tried to get Jared to at least put on a suit jacket, but he would not have it). The next picture is another family picture that allowed me to get a little closer shot with them all bunched together instead of in a long line. Then all of the women and then all of the men. What a beautiful sight. I kind of wondered what the tourists on the other side of the visitor center's windows thought, if only they knew :)
