18 Months

Well Lucas just turned 18 months old.
In our church 18 months old changes our whole church experience.
They get to go to nursery!!
For the last 5 months or so I have been trying to hold this handsome man still and keep him quiet for 3 hours... During nap time.
Lets just say I was more than excited for this Sunday to come :)
He has been to Nursery 3 times now.
He Loves it! Kennedy loves it too!
It actually worked out great, his first week was our first week in our new ward,
 so it was a new experience for both of them.
 Apparently coloring, singing songs, playing with toys, and eating snacks is a whole lot more fun than Relief Society :)
Yay!

Wedding Fun

Call me Cupid.
Yup.. I am taking all the credit for this wedding ;)
I am thrilled that Adam and Tiffany are now married.
It is really selfish though..
lining up your brother in law with one of your good friends from high school is all so that I can guarantee another sister-in-law that I like ;)

I love everything about weddings.
I think they are fun. In fact, when I grow up I want to be a wedding planner.
Anyway... what I am saying is I was so excited that I got to help out so much with this wedding.
Let's start with showers...
Because she is my friend, and now sister, I got to throw 2 showers. 
A family shower...



and a friend shower...
my kids enjoyed helping Tiffany open her gifts a little too much... haha
Anyway, both showers were a blast.
My only regret is that I didn't take more pictures.
I felt bad I didn't get picture of details but more importantly of all the people that came. 
Oh well.. thanks to all that came and helped.. It was fun to gather with friends and family.

Wedding Week
Andrews brother Matt came in town and stayed with us for a few days before the wedding. 
It was way fun. The kids played great, Kennedy loved having baby Coralie here and a live in cousin Colette.


Breanne kicked my trash working out everyday. 
It was awesome.

And Matt was here most of the time:
In the kitchen
He (and his lovely assistants) made all the cupcake for the wedding
 If 215 cupcakes and 2 wedding cake tops wasn't enough...
we asked him to make dinner for my family.. 
Only a group of 25 people.. :)

It was DELICIOUS.
 
Then he made desert too.. geez. (pumpkin cream puffs...)
If you think you are full after Thanksgiving dinner... you have no idea what I was feeling after this meal.. I couldn't stop eating. It was so dang good.
you can find all of his AMAZING food recipes here...

ohh.. and my kids are cute.

 Wedding Dinner




Here is where the kids played while we all enjoyed a fun night.



If you were wondering where Matt gets his great cooking bug, I think its fare to say from this wonderful woman...
My Mother in law. She is also an amazing chef, and made the dinner. It was yum.


 


Chocolate Cover Grapes
If you have never tried one. Well.. that's awful.
Andrews grandma makes them, and they are to die for.
Seriously.
Its a good fight to get some from anyone of the family ;)


Then we watched the video.. 
which I debated on putting up...
let me finish adding all the reception stuff then I might.

Tiffany asked Andrew and I if we would do the shoe game.
It was a blast. 
I was a little worried about how it would go, but it was way fun.
 
  How the game goes;
The bride and groom sit back to back, then remove both  shoes, then trade a shoe so that you’re holding one of each. Then, have a designated person ask a series of questions about the two of you and your relationship (i.e.. “Who will be doing most of the cooking?” "Who said 'I love you' first?"). After each question, hold up the shoe of the person you think is the best answer to the question. one of my favorites that we did for Adam and Tiff is... Who has the most shoes? (Tiffany) who has the most socks (Adam).
 It's fun. Do it.

 
 Needless to say the dinner was great!

Oh.. and my kids are cute :)

Wedding Day!
It was a beautiful day, and everything went as planned.. I think :)
I spent most of the day with Adam and Tiffany.
I got to go with their photographer and take lots of pictures and video.
I thought I would let them post all the cute pictures,
So here are some silly ones I snapped so I can have some prof of the bride and groom.
hope they don't mind


Although Adam and Tiffany looked great...
 look at this handsome man.
He is ALL MINE. I loved holding his hand in the sealing room and remembering our day.
Just knowing he is mine for eternity makes me so happy! 






















Oh and did I mention that my kids are cute? ;)
