he strikes again...

can i just say how awesome my husband is? i know he thinks his talents are amateur. and, i know i'm "just the wife" telling him that he has an ability most people dream of ...but, what do i know? i'm biased. so, i'm very happy when things happen that show him he can't deny just how great he is. months ago, illya got an email from someone who was putting an lds book together about temple endowments. she found a picture illya had taken during one of our trips down to utah of the slc temple. she asked if they could use it. illya told her yes, not thinking anything would happen with it (since illya has gotten emails like this before and nothing has come of them). but, both of us were surprised when we were told the book was finished and was out on shelves...
