Yet Another Fabulous Wedding!


Kimberly and Chris Scott!
June 16, 2010
It was such an amazing wedding! I am so excited to have a new sister-in-law!


Two days before the wedding, a bunch of us girls from both sides of the family went to get pedicures and this is how it turned out!

Here is all of us after. We had such a fun time! Can't you tell we're all so relaxed from our feet massage!


Our family, at the Salt Lake Temple, waiting for Chris and Kimberly to come out. We were all so excited.



Carter, playing on the stairs.



EmmaLee, just LOVED her outfit and was posing all night! She felt like a princess!


All of the little girls in their super cute outfits, which by the way, Kimberly made! She made the skirts and the cute bows!

Chad, Heidi and Erica

It was a fun, wonderful day! However, this little girl was tired!
Congratulations to Chris and Kimberly! We love you!

Birthday Weekend/Memorial Weekend


Happy 2nd Birthday Carter!!
Our sweet boy turned two over Memorial Weekend, and it was the perfect weekend to go on a trip! A family in our neighborhood, the Lawrences invited us to go to St. George with them for a few days. It seriously was such a fun trip! The weather was perfect, the kids were great! It was just a great way to celebrate and have a good time with friends.

This is Carter at the little splash park that they have in St. George. Carter LOVED running up and down and through the water!



EmmaLee loved it too. It was a little bit cold at first, but she got used to it. And she especially loved that she got to wear her princess swim suit.


A perfect day for basking in the beautiful sun!



Neil and Andrew of course, brought out their Frisbees. Carter is close by, of course! He loves to watch dad!


Buddies! Kohen and Carter.


That night we went out to dinner and they were SO SWEET to make Carter his own special "2" pizza! I was shocked! It not only looked good, but tasted amazing also.


Nicole and I at dinner. Can I just steal some of her tan please?? I guess I only get blessed with lots of freckles!


A cute family photo moment!


EmmaLee posing to be like him.

This explains Carter, perfectly! Did I mention that he just turned two?

EmmaLee loved the little swimming pool that they had at the hotel. She asked about a million times a day, when we were going to go swimming.


Hanging at the pool.


This was at Snow Canyon in St. George. The sand felt Amazing!

Neil ran and jumped a few times over the hill! He was super sweaty after the event! But it was fun! This was the best picture that I was able to get.



We left St. George on Memorial day just in time to make it back for a Birthday party at the park with my family and Neil's. There were other May Birthdays so we celebrated them all. I slaved away and purchased Ding Dongs, and through a candle in each one. Hard work, I know! Carter wasn't too sure about blowing out his candle!

EmmaLee with her cousin Hannah. There were so many people there, and Carter had an amazing birthday. I want to say Thank You to everyone for coming and making is such a special day!


Again, Carter not interested in the candles.


This is a picture of Neil and I as we were leaving. It was such a great weekend, with our trip and Carter's birthday party, we hope to do it all again next year!

Some May Events


This soccer season was a little too cold to go out to every game and watch, but we were able to make it to a few of Chad's games. We love watching and playing soccer!


Neil's brother Chad, in one of his last soccer games. He's graduating this year, and then heading to New York!

Ben, Chad, Neil and Jeff. They just sort of look like brothers!


This is was quick shot that Neil took of Nicole and I as we were running the Race For the Cure. It's because we were running so fast!! We actually were surprised that we saw them as we ran by. We finished the race in just under 28 minutes. It was amazing to see all of the people out to support those with, or who had Breast Cancer.


Nicole and I, after the race! We're BrEaSt friends now!! It was so fun, I think we're going to do it again next year! Now we're training for the 10K in July! Anyone else want to join??? Seriously! Anyone?


My cute kids, who had to get up early to come and watch!


Grandma Scott and the whole family came to watch! Thanks for the support!



Then we headed to the zoo! We gave in and bought a zoo pass, so anyone who wants to go, call us! I wanted to get a picture of the cute baby elephant, but he/she wasn't cooperating.

Every time we go to the zoo, they have to play on the playground!

A few of us at the bird show. It was really neat. I was impressed, and would definitely go again. We even got to see a bald eagle!

Of course the famous, prairie dog hole, or whatever it's called!

April Showers or April Snow?

I didn't know that it could be so cold in the month of April! Maybe because when I think of it being April 30th, I don't think of waking up to snow! Anyway... I'm a little distraught about it, but I guess I'll get over it! April did have a few great days!
April is the month of my birth. Yep, I turned a year older this month!! Everyone was very thoughtful and super nice to me on my birthday. I have to shout out a big THANK YOU!


I have to say there was a great night in April where we were able to go to the park. I ran, while Neil played with the kids. He's been great at supporting my training. Here are a few great photo's of the kids.




Oh, how I LOVE to see green, warm grass! It warms my heart.



Carter and EmmaLee could stay on the swings all night if we would let them!


Unfortunately, the night ended in a fall. It was a beautiful day, but with that comes scraped knees.


Also in April, Neil's Brother Chad received his mission call. This is Neil and I waiting to hear where he's going!


New York, New York South, Spanish speaking. We are so excited for Chad. I'm going to miss him so much! And, I really want to go pick him up in two years! I want to go to New York so badly.


So in my family growing up, we have always LOVED Chick-fil-a. When it was at Valley Fair Mall years ago, we always loved to go there. Also, when we visit family in Oklahoma, we always have to stop at Chick-fil-a. My brother and his wife even drove down from Boise one night, just to eat at Chick-fil-a! So when the chance came, at the grand opening in West Valley, we couldn't pass up the opportunity to be one of the first 100 people to get 52 free combo meals for the year. Luckily, Neil volunteered for the job, because as previously mentioned, it snowed the morning they stayed out in the parking lot. BRRR!


EmmaLee was jealous of the shirt and wanted a picture also!

And... Carter!
