Homeless

Homeless, homeless, like the Christ child was. I am so homeless, homless.....This song keeps playing over and over in my head.(Forgotten Carols..anyone?) Alas, we are not going to be able to move in today. The story is too long to tell, and I'm sick of hearing it, let alone telling it. I'm pretty sure I'm close to loosing it. Monday is the day. Its also Jareds 1st real day out in the workforce. Pefect timing for moving into a new house. Ugh. He has been gone all week in San Diego for training. He arrives today at 4pm, we will then close at 5, but will not be able to get keys until Monday. So it makes perfect sense to be sitting around tomorrow when we could be moving in right? Again, Ugh. I'm so sick of hearing peoples excuses and run arounds. Don't call me unless you can tell me some good news. I really just want to put them on mute until they ask me a question. Now would be a perfect time to pretend I don't know any English except the phrase, "here are your keys".

The problem isn't that we are living with Brett and Connie, the problem is that we aren't living in OUR OWN HOME!!! Ugh. Deep Sigh. Just venting a little. We are very grateful to have a place to stay and for everyones help. On a positive note...I have an adorable, fun, cute, amazing, active, little boy..who is taking a nap:) We are so excited to have Jared back, hallelujah!! Just sorry he doesn't have a house to come home to. Ugh.

Katie and Jordans Big Day

Wedding of the year..check. Katie and Jordan tied the knot Friday morning. It was a beautiful day! The weather even cooperated(my mother would have not survived if it hadn't). Its was a little chilly during the reception but no rain or wind. Ive always said that Katie seems old for her age, but as we sat in the temple I thought she seemed like a sweet little girl. She looked so beautiful and happy. The last few months have been quite busy for our family. Everyone of my siblings, including me has/or will be moving. In the midst of all of this, there was a wedding to plan. Needless to say, it has been a little stressful. Many hours of weeding, planting, shopping, and working created the perfect, well- worked for event.
There are quite a few pictures, and its not my best work. I'm excited to see what the actual photographer got.



I know, I know.... I'm one lucky lady:) Handsome boys!















Cupcakes were provided by Temptation Cupcake in Logan. They are SO good and SO cute..hello Cupcake Wars!







I sure love these two. Jared and Graham looked so handsome all dressed up. Graham in a tux=cutest thing ever! He was such a good boy all day, although he did have a few tired moments:)
























The reception was at my mom and dads. Jared and I also had ours there as well. Throughout the day I couldn't help but be reminded of my wedding day. It was a lot of work to get the yard ready and all set up, but it look absolutely stunning. Leave it to the farm man to pull it off. Of course Diane Mott(Ashleys mom) did the flowers, and she is unbelievably talented. I have never seen flowers better. All in all, I thought it turned out like something that could be featured on the knot.




































Is it hilarious that I didnt get a good shot of the actual bride and groom..oops! Don't worry I'll post some when they get done. Congrats Kate, it was a great day!
