One year ago, my Gramps died.
It was incredibly hard for the entire family.
We all adored him.
He was the center of the whole Beazer family.
And we all still miss him.
Exactly one year later, this past Thursday, November 17th, something wonderful happened.
My cute little grandma and her four kids were sealed to my Gramps.
For the past year, my Grandma has been doing everything necessary to go to the temple.
And, finally, they are an eternal family!
I was so blessed to be able to attend the sealing in the Salt Lake Temple.
It is something I will never forget.
There are no words to describe how I felt as I saw them all kneeling at the alter together.
My parents were so kind to fly me (and Darcy) to Utah to be a part of this. I would not have wanted to miss it. Thank you mom and dad, for always being so generous.
(How do we manage to live so far apart??)
It was just a short trip. I arrived Tuesday afternoon and then turned around and left Thursday morning.
It was barely enough time for them all to meet sweet little Darcy for the first time (except my mom) and for me to meet this little guy, "Sawyer Bean"
Man, it's amazing how much you can love a little nephew so much when you have never met him before. He was a cutie. I can't wait to play with him again in 3 weeks.

What a beautiful post.
What an amazing day:)
It was a couple of years ago that my grandad finally decided he wanted to prepare himself to go to the Temple - and you're right there are no words to describe the feelings! I was so emotional (everyone was) as I watched my mother and her sisters being sealed to their parents at the alter, and suddenly realising that I was now part of a bigger eternal family - I am now sealed to all my cousins and so many generations before hand too! My grandad was the missing link and now there is a bond that no one can break!
It is so nice that you got to be there:)
The pictures are great too:)
Oh I'm so glad your mom was able to be sealed to her parents. It must be comforting to know that they will be together again.
What an awesome event to attend. I am glad you could go! Something you will always cherish I am sure.
