Sally's Wedding June 1, 2013

Is Sally really married? It doesn't feel real. Just because she is younger than me. And I feel like I'm still young, and I just got married...didn't I? Nope, my 4 year anniversary is tomorrow. Can you believe that? So much time has passed. Without us even realizing it.

The little girls were adorable. Look at their hair, too cute.

These two dated for so long. They met in Chemistry class.

Back in 2010. I told Sally she would marry him.

It just took awhile.

But I'm so glad they got married.

And a big thanks to our friends for watching our babies. Namely miss Gately.

Here is my family.

Here are the lovely siblings.

Brothers.

Sisters. 

Sisters and Sisters in Law.

These two are baby lovers. This is my cousin Shay, she loved little Miles.

The boy cousins all together. Miles was so confused at why everyone was crying. He tried to console Parker by putting his hand on his leg.

What the devil is this kid screaming for?

The groom and Miles.

That's one of my favorite things about Greg. He loves kids, and puts in so much time with all the kids. Miles was kept happy with my necklace.

He is actually screaming here because I took the necklace away.

Tiera and Landon just had their first baby, Finn, and he was just a few days old at the wedding.

Me and Sally, Sally is right under me in siblings, so we are close. And she lived with Brad and I for 2 years in Provo.

Sally was the first one (besides Brad) to know I was pregnant, at just 5 little weeks. She also was a witness (with Brad) of all the pregnancy woes. (puking my little heart out)

Cake exchange.

Little girls and Sally at the luncheon. Jemma and Halle. Such sweeties.

It was such a beautiful day, and it made me cry watching Sally get married. My little sister. I love her to the moon. She was married on June 1st, 2013. 

I guess I forgot to mention..

That those are baby wraps, and you wrap up your baby like this...

And you can find one at capulanababywraps.etsy.com
Sorry I'm losing my mind.


I did Natalie's wedding flowers...
that means I made her bouquet and stuff :)

This is my brother holding it...not Natalie, Natalie's arm's aren't that hairy.

Or maybe they are. But I don't think they are :) She is on her honeymoon. I wanna go on another honeymoon. I miss mine. Warm, sunny, and lots of love. (not that there isn't lots of love, but you know you are secluded and full of love without the hussle and bussle.)

I am so busy. School, weddings, flowers, now my other great friend is getting married on Thursday, and there is wedding stuff Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday night. I am not doing her flowers though, just being her bridesmaid. So I will be fine!

I asked my dear kindergarteners why they shouldn't do drugs. I received many very serious comments.

"Becuz you will get addicted. Addicted to drugs. Then you will start playing video games, and your family will be sad and tell you to stop."

"Because when you cross the street you won't be able to see cars." (They were combining Pedestrian Safety and Drug Awareness...smart kids.)

"Because you can die of cancer."

"My grandpa died of cancer but he didn't do drugs."

"What are drugs?"

"So Mrs. Clark, I have two things to say. First, when is Music?  Second, I don't do drugs."

Then I decided it was time to tell them I loved them, and to remember that when they are offered drugs that Mrs. Clark would be so sad if they ever did them.

"But Mrs. Clark my mom smokes."

"Okay, just don't you ever smoke okay buddy?"-Mrs. C

I love them, and they are so thoughtful and remind me of how I should be, innocent and kind.

Brad is doing well. He got a glock. Finally. He has been dying for one. I am so glad he got one. Now he pretends he is shooting (not with the gun in his hand) at everything. It's humorous. He still searches for cars, guns, and guitars on KSL. I don't think it will ever stop. I realized I don't search for anything online except for books for my kids and games for them to play. And emailing parents. I have 45 kids and 90 parents!!!! Ha! Kinda a lot to figure out.

OH and we bought a car :)

Its nice. And the windows are so tinted that I can't see bikers at night. I did hit a mailbox yesterday. That's a sad story. But I didn't cry, just laughed. Then called Brad saying, "I'm so so sorry." "Are you mad? Are you mad at me?"
"No, well yes a little bugged."-Brad
Now he just jokes about it every chance he gets.
You can imagine the things he says.
He's a sweetheart.

Strange things are happenin to me...

So so so so so so so sosososooooo much has happened.

If you didn't know, I am working at BYU info for my last weeks. And in order to do that I had to take one class I needed to graduate, so in order to get a grant to pay for school I had to take full credits. So I am taking golf, basketball, marriage class, and STATS.

That's right Stats. 

So tomorrow is finals. And I haven't studied one bit. But how could I, it was a beautiful day until it started storming like crazy right when I got to work.

Today was reading day. And I did everything but... I started tutoring these two boys, so cute and so smart. So thats what I did today, then Brad got home and we fell asleep till four! Then I went grocery shopping since I hadn't gone in two weeks. Gross I know, I was resorting to eating oatmeal for every meal, but hey it was fun to see how long we could eat canned foods with no milk or bread. 

Oh the bottom of my backbone just popped. I love it when that happens. Feels like my tail bone popped.

So, my friend Chelsea graduated from NURSING SCHOOL! Yahoo for Chels! She is Brad's sister PS.

I captured some real dandys of her.

I captured a dandy of him too.

Did you know Brad has freckles on his lips? He does. I hope none of you knew that, that would mean you were too close to him. I am the only one who gets to be that close.

Wow it really is pouring right now.

So she did it, if you need a nurse, she is it. She passed all her tests and we are so proud of her.

And then we went to my friend Abbey's reception.

She was beautiful. And in the background is a groomsmen cake of a rock climbing wall. Adorable.

My dear friend Gen has a cute boy. I took a glamor shot of them in front of the sunset and golf course.

Then we had a wedding. Oh how we love weddings. Brad has participated in three since he met me. Ours, Brooke's, and now Landon's!

Halle. She loves yellow, sidewalks and long walks on beaches.

Holy Smokeronies!!! All my nieces except my sister Faith on the very far left. Faith could never be left out!

Maddie holding Gemma (my newest niece and Summer's first baby), Remi, Molly, Sophie, Halle and screaming Ashtyn!

Oh did you want to see the Bride and Groom?? Oh okay fine.

Tiera's dress was beautiful as was she. Landon you looked okay your self. 

Look Sally, my shirt looks white here!! I look like a stoned drug head.

Brad and I make such an adorable, lovely, stunning, eternal couple. And do you know what?

We are married a year on the 27th! Of June! I'll talk about that later gator.

So above we have the bride and groom and all my sisters. And my creme shirt. Boy did I get in trouble for my cream shirt. And below we have just all my sisters! 

Did a gross color blind person wrap Brad's bday presents!!!!! Yes yes she did! I did!!! In the morning of Brad's birthday. Because if I would have unhid them before his birthday he would have had all of them guessed in the beginning!

I made him open them right when he woke up, because lucky me..I had to go to a Stats review.

This was his moving face when he saw my main present to him.

An Ipod touch!

He obviously was surprised. 

And his got stolen..so he loves his new touch. Especially when I told him two days after he got it that it had wifi. He had no idea of its capabilities. 

I made him an ice cream cake. Yep thats the cake in all its ugliness.

But it was super good. It had mint ice cream with chocolate cream cheese frosting and a crunchy layer in the middle of it consisting of chocolate syrup and oreos!

Our backyard is full of possibilities. That's Zane Curtis in the grass coffin. Ya, you wouldn't know it but he is the mayor's son.

We made mini pizzas and then cooked them. My favorite pizza is cheese and onions. Yummers.

I missed half of Brad's friends. But these are the true friends, the ones that stay the longest. Jk, Luke and Aj didn't have a ride :) But any girls that see this photo and want to hook up with Luke (far right) and Aj Second from the left. Give me a holler. Oh and Kevin, he isn't available. He is married.

So, that's my strange things are happening to me post.

Hope you love it, and can feel the love from Brad and I to you!

Cheers!

The Man Who Married Us

W. Grant Bangerter  

This man married Brad and I, on this day.

He has a power I will never forget. He married my siblings. He was in a wheelchair and then they escorted him to his seat while he proceeded to the ceremony.

He is such an amazing man. My mom grew up next to his family in Alpine, and he passed away Sunday at the age of 91. That means that when he married me he was 91.

I remember when my grandma took me to his house about 2 years ago. I asked him if he would be the person to marry me and my husband.

He said, "Well you better hurry!! I'm not lastin much longer! Do you have a man in mind?"

I said, "No, I better find one, and quick!"

I am so glad I had the opportunity to be a part of his life, and his grandchildren as well.

I love them all.
