Doug and Shanell's wedding!

Doug and Shanell got married a couple weeks ago.  Shanell has been one of my very bestest friends (we met my freshman year at USU).  I think we almost came close to having a common law marriage since we were roommates for so long!  

They had a pre-reception a couple nights before they got married, it was just great!  

Bowling and Pizza = Best reception ever!

We had so much fun visiting with friends, eating and bowling!

Shellan and Kelly . . . I mean Shelly and Kellan!

JaNell and Aaron and their cute Adlee

Not the best picture of us, but I had to include it!

Chris and Katie

Our bowling group!  There were a lot more people there but we had fun with our close friends!

We were able to go up to Logan and be there for their Sealing.  

It was such a beautiful day and so fun to see them!

The happy couple!

Doug collects PEZ so for their wedding topper they were cute Bride and Groom Pez dispensers! 

On the way home we drove through Brigham City and saw the new temple.  It is going to be so pretty and is so bright white!

It was a fun weekend and we are so happy for Doug and Shanell!

Birthday Fun!

I celebrated my 28th birthday last week!  

I had a lot of fun and was spoiled by everyone!  

We headed to Joe Bandidos in Springville for dinner that night.

I just love their chips and salsa!

Tessa Rose and Meghan Rose!
I think it is going to be GREAT to be 28!  
(At least that is what I keep telling myself!)

Surf-N-Swim

Jeremy's family reunion was at the Layton Surf-N-Swim.  They had fun activities going on before dinner then after dinner we headed over to the wave pool where it was reserved only for the reunion.  It was so much fun being in the pool because it wasn't crowded at all!  We had a great night playing with the kids and visiting!

Family picture before the pool!

We missed seeing Aaron and Jenny

Waiting for ballon animals!

Ellie feel asleep on Wendy's lap.  She is use to the wave pool at Seven Peaks and thinks it is a great place to take a nap!

It was a GREAT night!

Shanell's Bridal Shower

Last weekend I drove up to Logan to throw Shanell a bridal shower.  It was a lot of fun seeing old friends and getting together to eat and talk talk talk!

Plate Lickin' Good

The Pond's (Vicki was the Primary president when I was the secretary) invited us over for dinner a couple Friday's ago.  We went over and visited with good friends and watched Bree be crazy and sweat up a storm from playing outside!  

I had made Eclair Cake for dessert and Melanie gave Bree some and she apparently liked it because she kept licking the plate.  I just had to keep taking pictures because it was just so funny!

What a cutie!

We had a fun night, and there were lots of people there.  But of course the only pictures I took were of Bree because she is the cutest little person in the world. 

24th of July Hike

Since we had Monday the 25th off work for Pioneer Day we decided to go on a quick hike up the canyon.  We hiked to Donut Falls in Big Cottonwood Canyon.  It was a quick and easy hike with a fun waterfall at the end.  The temperature was perfect for hiking and the cold water once we got to the top made the air feel even better!
