Weddings, birthdays, and anniversaries....

Well as I had previously stated it was a busy couple of weeks with girls camp and my brothers wedding, but it was all worth it....I think.

Girls Camp turned out great.

We had 11 girls come, which is the most that have ever attended.

The weather was perfect while we were there....nice and cool (especially compared to last year when it was stinkin hot and I was 9 months pregnant). We of course cannot have girls camp without a little drama, but all in all, we made it out alive. It is mostly thanks to Deanna for everything turning out so great....so thanks Bishop Hilton for letting us borrow your wife for a week!!!

Last Tuesday Annalise and I flew out to Utah for my brothers wedding. It was quite the adventure trying to get on a flight. We flew on a buddy pass that my sister-in-law was kind enough to share with us. Which ment we flew standby, but we weren't having very much luck getting on a flight. We tried to go direct and it was full, so we flew to Cincinnatti and tried to catch a flight from there to SLC, but they were all full and so we tried to run to three different gates to catch connecting flights, but despite my running abilities we were not succesful in making it to the gate in time. To make this shorter, I ended up flying into Las Vegas and driving with my bro and sis in law from there, it was quite the adventure....and the wedding had not even started. Kevin tried the same thing on Thursday and Friday, and unfortunatly never made it out there.....so maybe he just needed a weekend to himself to miss me and Annalise. You know what people say...
"Distance makes the heart grow fonder." :)


So while in Utah we had a baby shower for my two sister-in-laws on wednesday.....they are to two cutest pregnant people ever....

Then a wedding shower on Thursday for my new sister-in-law Lauren...

Then the sealing was on Friday ..... congrats Matt and Lauren.....

followed by the grooms dinner....

Then the reception was on Saturday....

So needless to say, there was no rest for the weary. We had a lot of fun. But after two weeks away from home, I was soooo ready to come home.


In the meantime among all of this chaos it was my birthday on the 2nd, I am 27 now, that is so weird. I am now closer to 30 then ever before, but that is fine, because my shortness keeps me young.





And Kevin and I had our anniversary on Sunday (the 17th)We have been married for 6 years now.....wow how fast it goes. I have loved every minute of it....Kevin is the most amazing person I know, and who else could be as patient as he is with me?And he makes the cutest baby.....just look at her.


Until my next novel....TTFN.
