Friends and a Wedding

After a few days at home, I headed up north to Provo for a wedding but before I get to that, I did get to meet up with a couple friends, Lindsay and Kaelynn, that I hadn't seen for a while. We met up for dinner and got to catch up. It was a lot of fun and a very tasty dinner. Also on my way back down to Enoch, Dave and I had breakfast with our friend, Kassie, and then stopped in Beaver to visit my grandma and my friend Alicia. It was great to me able to meet up with so many friends.

So now to the wedding. Dave’s brother Josh got married to Tara. They got married up in Orem in the Mt. Timpanogos Temple. It was a very nice day. We had a luncheon at BYU with some very tasty food. After the luncheon, we just hung out for a few hours because the wedding wasn’t until 4:00pm. The wedding ceremony was also very nice and extra special because of the circumstances. Dave’s mom passed away the day before the wedding and so it was really nice to be able to go to the temple where I believe she was able to attend her son’s wedding, which she wouldn’t have been able to do otherwise since she had gotten so sick the days leading up to it. It also allowed Dave’s dad to make it too. It was so peaceful inside and it was great to have so many family members there. Josh and Tara looked so happy and beautiful and I’m very excited to have another girl in the family.

Just the kids.

Boys will be boys.

They had the reception that night outside their chapel in a pavilion. It was beautiful. Weddings are such happy events. I love seeing two families come together. Congratulations Josh and Tara!

Utah Baby Shower

Well it’s time to catch up. A couple of weeks ago, I flew out to visit my family for a few days in southern Utah before I headed up north for a wedding (that post will be later). While I was home, I got some of my first maternity clothes. My mom spoiled me but it sure does feel good to actually fit in clothes again. I also had my first Baby Shower while there. It was most of the family that lives near by along with some of my best friends. I also had a joint Baby Shower with my cousin Kaela, who is due with her first in October. She’s having a boy and I’m having girl. It was a lot of fun to get so many new things, mostly clothes. When I told Dave that we got a lot of clothes, he told me we were going to have to get a storage unit. We had already started a collection of clothes that friends had handed down to us, so Dave was a little worried but I assured him, it will all work out. We just had our baby changing table delivered which has shelf space to start storing clothes and I bought some hanging shelves for the closet. I’m super excited to start organizing. Anyway, here are a couple of pictures of the Baby Shower.
