Wedding Day for cousin Lynette

Attending a temple wedding is a glorious event, and then when it is family, it is even better! May 2nd, niece Lynette Lewis was sealed in the Portland, OR temple to Ian Lake from Wilsonville. It was a perfect spring day. We were so happy to join our wonderful Corwin & Lynette Lewis family and rejoice in this blessed day with them. Lynette was a beautiful bride and Ian the handsome groom. They are an outstanding couple with a great future ahead. Hunter was the only sibling out of 14, not attending the wedding as he is on a mission to Peru. It was wonderful to see the Lewis siblings and get caught up with their busy, productive lives.

Ian's parents are David & Marcie Lake and he is the stake president of the Lake Oswego Stake. David's sister is Teresa Oldham. The Oldham's were in our stake for many years in Gresham and Bro. Dave Oldham served as a Bishop of the Damascus ward before they moved to Utah. It was so fun to be with Teresa, her sister, Susan, and their parents, Bro. & Sister Lake and visit with them at the Luncheon held at a beautiful country club in Wilsonville. Ian's Grandpa Lake was the sealer. It was fun to have Myreel Pease there, too, from BYU-I. We enjoyed hosting Wilfried Friday night and some of Lynette's friends on Friday and Saturday evening in our home.

A special treat was hearing all the Corwin Lewis' sing "A Marvelous Work" at the Luncheon. We love being with family for these choice events. It's always inspiring to be surrounded by righteous, good family members striving to live true to Gospel principles. Family is Forever!
