Time

So it's been awhile....life happens. There is no way to sit here and catch up on the last year and a half. I will however give a summary, I was called as Relief Society President in Feb 2012 and served until September 2013(life changing exerience), Nathan came home from his mission(!!!!!!!) at the end of July 2013, Jonathan and Sarah had another little boy on 10/9/2013 and Becca and David had another little girl on 10/14/2013. Both babies and mothers are doing great. I've taken a couple of minor trips this past year. One to Utah and then family reunion in San Diego in August, both were great and lots of fun! Now for picture overload...

 OH MY GOODNESS!! I could seriously never ever get sick of this place!!! And if you know me, you know how much I love beautiful diamonds and know I could live there.

 While in Utah I was able to go to a college friend Carrie's wedding. She has waited something like 10 years for this to happen and I was so happy the timing worked out so I could be there for her special day!

 I was able to attend the SLC Temple with Lyndsi while there. Amazing!

Sierra Nevada's on the flight home. I always love looking at these mountains on the flight back, it means I am home. 

Sorry, I have no pictures of the new babies yet...soon I hope. 

Coming Soon

My computer is being a little difficult..sorry for the lack of posts lately I have been trying to but long story short more posts to come shortly.

The Wedding

On October 15, 2011 Michelle got married...here are a few pictures from the wedding. I actually didn't get the best pictures so cross my fingers we will get the photographers pictures soon, but until then, enjoy these.

 Bubbles and Me

Bride and Groom, one of the only pictures I got from the front of her dress..yes I know..I'm sorry! When we get the photographers pictures I will try and post more. The wedding day was VERY HOT AND MUGGY!! I mean it was October it was supposed to be really nice weather...wrong...Oh well. The wedding started a little late due to Michelle forgeting something at home so we were all baking for a while, but other than that it turned out very nice.

Michelle's Bridal Shower and Bridals

So as we know Michelle is getting married  (we are down to the wire only 2 weeks left to go!) Her soon to be sister in law and mother in law threw her a bridal shower a couple of weeks ago, here are some pictures from it.

The Tables were so cute, each place setting had a different dessert plate.

 Michelle showing off her wedding shoes..my mom embelished them..they are amazing!

 Me, new little man and Sarah at the shower.

 The sign in table at the shower..

 This past saturday we went to old town clovis and took some bridal pictures...what do you think? Yes I took them and edited them.

 The shoes...

 I really like how both of these turned out...what say you?

Yatch

Over labor day weekend my parents and I and my friend Lori went to Monteray, Ca and stayed on a YATCH! It was amazing! So much fun! It was HUGE! The pictures do not do it justice and I took A LOT but I thought I would spare you the entire 25 pictures so here are just a few...

The top picture is of the master suite, the top captains area(One of two places you can steer the boat from, the main cabin with the kitchen and couch and tv, and a side view of the whole yatch. It's like 72 feet long! So much fun and if you want to see more pictures let me know and I will post more. :)

Baby Shower

We threw a baby shower for Sarah and baby in July before little man was born and it was a baseball themed babyshower...if you know Jonathan that makes total sense...we had a good time...here are some pictures from the shower.

 If you can make out his name...I made it! The food was behind it...we had sub sandwhiches, veggie trays, and baseball cupcakes.

I also made a mobile to hang over his bed..all of the circles have some sort of sports on it... 

The cupcakes that Becca made.

New Nephew

So this is the new little man...Jonathan and Sarah are so excited to have him here! He was born on August 11, 2011, 8 lbs 4 oz, 22 inches long.

I call this his scrunched up old man face.

 My dad and the little man.

 The proud papa. Don't they look soooo much alike? Even the hair color(just don't tell Jonathan that...lol)

Bubbles and her new cousin.

We love having our new nephew around! He is so cute and adorable!
