A beautiful day at the temple

 

We had a youth temple trip this morning, and I got to take the Laurels! What a great way to start the day. How fun that my niece, Megan, got to come with us!

Bryce, the superhero

 

Bryce saved the day so many times during the wedding festivities that we officially dubbed him a superhero. I am serious when I say that WE COULD NOT HAVE DONE IT WITHOUT HIM! What a wonderful brother, son and yes, SUPERHERO!

True motherly love...

 

What a mother won't do for her bride....! The photographer insisted that "someone" needed to crawl up under all that skirt to hold it out for the pictures. Well, I know my talents, and I just knew this was a job for me! Oh, it's so fun to walk down memory lane. I still can't believe that was a year ago!

Happy one year anniversary, Eldon and Shelli!

 

I can't let the day go by without sending out a happy little shout to our newlyweds on their one year anniversary. What a wonderful match--gosh, we just love you both so much!!!

Shauna and her boyfriend

 

Okay, I'm just kidding....I wanted to make Jack just a little happier than he was in this picture, if that's possible. He gets a LOT of fun attention from his older cousins, and here is a perfect example. They were hamming it up at another cousins wedding...too cute!

Shauna skydiving on her 17th birthday

 

I just came across these pictures and had to laugh. After finding out that I actually let Shauna go skydiving (after telling my other children that they were perfectly welcome to skydive...after I was DEAD) Kevin wrote from his mission, "Where is my mother and what have you done with her?!" :) Good times!

Welcome home, Suzie Girl!

 

Shauna is certainly glad to get her Suzie back-- definitely worth every single one of the (over) $400 that we had to spend to get her up and running again... I just hope she doesn't require any more repairs for a very, very long time!
