Congratulations Jared & Katie

I know it's been a few days since I've written, so let me catch you up.

On Valentine's we did have individual heart shaped meatloaf. It was very yummy. We took a picture, but it's on Ryan and Marcela's camera, so I'll get that on soon.

Wednesday, I spent the day with Courtney. She is leaving on Friday for San Diego for 6 months. She just folded laundry and we talked, but it was the best day!

Sarah and Chloe were playing outside and when they came back in, Sarah had this Home Depot apron on as a cape. I laughed so hard when she struck this pose. What a poser!

Here's Kyle. He's almost 9 months old in the picture. He's huge and fun. Don't you love his little teeth. If only he wouldn't grind them! We have fun playing until he decides that he would rather have Court. Still a cutie though!

I sure will miss these guys! I know they are coming back, but while they're gone, it will be sad! Have fun though!

Thursday, I watched Sarah and Chloe while Court and Brad ran some errands. (They take Kyle too because he's a momma's boy) It was so much fun to play with the girls one more time. It was hard when they left. Too quiet!

Thursday night we took the ferry over to the airport and flew to Boise. The flight was about 30 minutes late. Always exciting. Jen was there to pick us up. It is always great to see those guys! They are good hosts!

Friday morning, we all packed up the van and headed to Utah, with only one minor detour to get a bag that was forgotten. We needed to be at the Temple at 5:15, so we definitely had a time limit. Luckily, we got to Jessica's at about 4:00. It was close, but we made it. No worries.

The Temple was amazing, as usual. It was so neat to see everyone there. That means a lot to me, as well as the rest of the family. Congratulations Julie! This is a wonderful step!

Then, we went to dinner at Training Table. My FAVORITE! Brent's a little tired of it though. Sorry. It was yummy, as usual.

Saturday morning, we all got up early and headed to the Temple for Jared's wedding. It was FREEZING! The ceremony was great! And now Jared and Katie are married. Congrats guys! We're so happy for you!

The pictures outside the temple were cold, but here are some good ones.

After the Temple, we went to Thanksgiving Point for the luncheon. It was very yummy! And, nice to be able to sit and talk to people we haven't seen for a while. This is Tayler hiding in the corner licking the urn. Gross Tay!

Don't we look great?

Here are all the siblings and they're mom. They clean up rather nice, don't they?

Sunday, we went to my parent's house to have dinner with them. It was nice to spend some time with them as well. Mom made a really good chicken dinner. Then we had pie for Brent's birthday. We had to get 2 because Brent wanted a german chocolate pie and I don't like that kind, so we got a lemon one too. It was a lot of fun. Thanks for the fun shirt and the promise of the spud trooper. (We'll post a picture when we get it.)

Monday, we drove back to Boise, then flew home. The drive was fun and exciting, like most drives are.

Now we're home! It was so nice to see everybody! Hopefully we'll see you again soon!

Hi guys!
Glad that you made it home safe and sound!
It was so good to see you again. I wish that I could pop in and see you more often. Too bad you don't still live here or us there :)
Love ya-
