“The blessings of the temple are available to us all—young and old and everybody in between. It is in the temple that we remember who we really are and see with clarity who we really can become.”

Our Story

We met in 2012 at an exotic spirituality and language-learning retreat. (More commonly known as the MTC) We both served as missionaries in the Ukraine Kyiv and Ukraine L'viv Missions.

After a couple of years, we crossed paths again. We soon began dating and were eventually sealed in the Gilbert Arizona Temple.

We have lived all over the States and spent a few years living in Canada, as well. We now live in Texas and love our days as a happy family of four.

Why We Love Temple Gifts

Between family history and lots of moves since we were married, many temples have become dear to our hearts.

Lex’s parents chose the Logan temple for their sealing. Stephanie’s parents were sealed in the St. George temple. Stephanie also first attended the St. George temple and opened her mission call there.

The Denver Temple, Oakland Temple, Montreal Temple, Manhattan Temple, Dallas Temple and Washington DC temple have each been our “home temple” at different times.
