Happy Anniversary # 10 For Jason & Melanie

I can hardly believe it but today is our Anniversary. Ten years ago today Jason and I were driving down to Manti together sharing our patriarchal blessings with each other, stopping at McDonald's for a burger to make sure we'd have energy and not be cranky and @ 2pm in the afternoon in the Manti Temple, Jason and I were sealed for time and all eternity. The weather was gorgeous, and our family and friends were stuffed into the sealing room. It was a white wedding b/c we were sealed in the Emerald room that is right off the Celestial Room. It was so beautiful. We did a session b4 the sealing, Mom and Dad Crane were the witness couple. Those who couldn't attend the session just met us in the sealing room after. The spirit was so strong that I couldn't keep from getting teary eyed. In our video you could see how extremely happy we were. We could hardly kiss at first b/c our smiles were so BIG! But, we figured it out...haha We were kissing almost the whole video. We had a beautiful dinner at a bed and breakfast there in Manti and then we headed up to Provo for our first night together. Mom Pug put us up in a hotel b/c she said that NO-One should spend their wedding night in their apartment. :D lol. Our Reception was the next day and then on Sunday night we left for Mammoth Lakes, CA for our honeymoon (provided by Mur mur and Mur Far Broman) And that was the beginning of our marriage... What an ADVENTURE it has been. The Lord really had His hand in my life when He picked Jason for me!!! I have put him through HELL and back and he has been there for me every step of the way. I am the luckiest bride in the world!
