Congrats to Sara & Jeremy!

Sara and Jeremy were sealed in the Bountiful temple on May 11, 2011! It was an incredible ceremony! These two are so cute together and I am way excited for them! Sara looked amazing, as always! I didn't get very many pictures but here are the few I did get...
Their first dance...
We were in charge of getting them out of line and over to the cake cutting. Andrew took his duty seriously and was the bouncer for the line for a few minutes!
Aaron and Josh eating the yummy food!
4,800 Post-it notes later... Holy smokes!
Way to go Post-it crew! The car looked sweet! (Sara's brothers and cousins...)
Congratulations you guys! We are way excited for you to start your adventures together! The wedding was perfect! :)

And on a completely separate note... This meal is the most delicious thing on the planet! Well one of the most delicious things! It's a little pricey but we were in the mood. So we celebrated with the Pesto-Presto Chicken (a Rachael Ray recipe) and some Cream Soda! It was delicious! Thanks, Annie, for coming and partying with us that night! Good times!
And, one of my other good friends, Erin Gibson, got married today! Congratulations Erin & Jim! You guys are awesome! The reception was beautiful and we can't wait to get to be your neighbors for the next little while! Unfortunately, I'm a bozo and left my camera on last time I used it so it was dead when we pulled it out to take pictures, but just know she looked amazing! Hope you guys have a great first week!

Well.... I did it! I got all updated in only 3 blog posts! Make sure you check them all out! We've been up to some super fun stuff! And I had to make sure I updated before this super busy-full of awesomeness-weekend happened that I'm sure will require a few blog posts of its own! I hope you all have a fantastic Memorial Day Weekend in a few days! I, personally, can't wait!

Happy 1 Year Anniversary!

Andrew and I celebrated our 1 year anniversary on May 7..... Can you believe it's already been an entire year since this...
I can't! Crazy how much time flies when you're having fun! We've had a great first year and are excited to see what the next year brings! We are still in Salt Lake and Andrew is still working hard to get through school and I'm a nanny... Fun times! We like it!

Anyway, for our anniversary we went up to Park City and spent a much needed long weekend there! It was a blast! We were able to spend lots of quality time together, go shopping, and hang out in one of the coolest hotel rooms we've ever stayed in! Luckily May is a slow time up there so there are great deals on hotels!

This is the entrance to our room... we couldn't believe we were really getting to stay here!
The view from the hotel.
Yeah... we had a private hot tub on our balcony! SWEET!
This is the food we bought to stock the fridge with. How long were we there? Just 4 days... don't even worry about it, we ate almost all of the food!
The bathroom.... with heated floors! Like a little taste of heaven for your feet!
Our king size bed! Gotta love when you get to spend some time on a huge bed! (That window above the bed is where the bathroom is.)
The fireplace. (sometimes I think I narrate the pictures too much! You probably could have figured out that was the fireplace!)
The rest of the room... It was huge!
The view of the bathroom from the bedroom... just a little weird in my opinion!
Out on the balcony.
And, of course, we got to eat our cake!! We were VERY excited for this because we thought our cake was DELICIOUS at our wedding! Marble cake with cream cheese frosting in the middle and marzipan on top. YUM! Do you think it was still good??
There was so much saran wrap on it! Thank you whoever packaged the top tier for us to take home!
Cutting the cake... again!
Andrew cutting the cake... the anticipation was killing us...
Hmm.... it still looks good....
First bite...
Oh yeah.... STILL DELICIOUS! It was better before it got frozen for a year but it was still pretty yummy! If anyone is in the market for a wedding cake Granite Bakery is definitely the place to go!

The ski jumps up on the mountain... They look so cool!
Andrew was really excited about them!

I make really cute faces all the time! :)
All the stuff we got for our anniversary presents! It's a REALLY good thing the stores in Park City are outlets and we got all of this stuff on sale!
I couldn't have asked for a better anniversary! It was so great to get to spend so much time with Andrew with no school or work to think about and not having to worry about how early we need to get up the next morning! We need another break already, I think!

It's been a great year! I've loved every minute of it! Thanks for everything you do for me, babe! I can't wait to see where the next year takes us!

May Family Get Together...

The family get together in May was a lot of fun! With the weather finally being so nice we were able to play outside! It was fantastic! I love being able to watch all of the kids play together! They are so cute!! And we got a LOT of awesome pictures of everyone! Enjoy! :)

Cute Rylee... because all good pictures include posing with your drink! :)
How cute are all of these kids?! Almost all of the kids at the table.... Cuties!!
Oh wow... we are cute! Nice smile, Brooke! hahahaha!
Hilary may kill me for putting pictures of her on here but how could I pass this one up? You guys are so cute! LOVE it!
Trying to jump at the same time is HARD when there are 8 of them!
haha... again, couldn't pass it up, Hil!
See... I told you we got AWESOME pictures of everyone!
Seriously though, how cute are these two?! I love how great Andrew is with all the kids!
Cutie pie!!
Green light............... RED LIGHT!
Great pose, Kenz!
Every time I took a picture of Kate this is how she posed. So cute!
Danika had fun rolling around in the grass! I love the smirk on her face in this one!
These two had me keep taking pictures of them while they kept posing! It was so funny!
Girl power!
ALL of the kids were in line to have Andrew do this with them! He was so great to make sure everyone got several turns before he finally made them find another activity...
We absolutely LOVE getting to spend time with the family!! Can't wait til the June get together!

Oh, and I don't know where the picture of the cake went but Happy Birthday Andy, McKenzie, and Brooke!!!

Ya know those times?

Do you know those times when you really want to blog, but then you realize just how much stuff you have that you want to blog about and it stops you from even trying? Well that's how I am right now... but we're doing well! It's been a fun month! Maybe one day soon I will write about it....
