Ten years ago today, the Raleigh North Carolina Temple was dedicated. Our family got to go to the first session, Sat. Dec. 18, 1999 at 9 am.
Mel S. babysat Tara and Zac, because they were too young to attend, and Tara got sick and threw up.
Mindy had just come to live with us, and she got to attend also.
Wayne got to sing in the choir at the cornerstone ceremony.
We were all sitting inside the temple when Pres. Hinckley and Sister Hinckley walked in, and he waved and smiled right at us.
The next day, Sun. Dec. 19, 1999, we had no Sunday services because there were more temple dedication sessions. Wayne got to do security for President Hinckley and stood right by him.
Because I was a sub-committe chairman for the temple Open house, Wayne and I were invited to attend the second endowment session ever held in the Raleigh temple, Mon. Dec. 20, 1999.
Adam, Isaac, and Mindy went to do baptisms for the dead at the temple on Tues. Dec. 21, the first group ever in that temple.
