Today was a very special day.
It started with an in-store performance and signing of my CD at This Is The Place Bookstore. (Boy, I kind of felt like Brother Brigham when he said, yeah, baby this is the place....It was so hard to find the store itself!!!)
The DC Temple, I have to say is my favorite. It truly feels like a castle rising above the bustling city....in the world, but not of the world.
Of course, I'm partial to the DC Temple. It's where I was married and sealed to my favorite people ever forever. It was great to have my girlies with me. They stood in awe. Eternity: I would never want to do it with out them!!!!
I got to perform at the Temple Visitors Center. I actually had the chance to perform with my parents and sisters there when I was a little girl as the "Musical Michels," our own version of the Von Trapps:). The small theatre there was full, and I was so excited to have a nice kick-off performance of my fireside.
Special guests included my Aunt Alice from Baltimore, and, (miraculously) my Mother-in-Law, Wynnie, who happened to be coming through DC on one of her many cross-country travels. She brought Uncle Stoney, and even had cousins Lenny and the other Stoney who helped to babysit while I did the show. (This was especially lucky as I had to do the first leg of the trip alone without a babyistter on the road----eeeek!!)
