Visiting my Bethie :)

After Adriana's wedding i stayed at my mom's house for two weeks while Jared flew back immediately because he is in busy season. Jared didn't want me and the kids driving home alone so my mom is awesome and came with me. We decided to take a detour and stop in Salt Lake City to surprise Bethany on her mission. It was so great. Here are the pics...



Rylie making her funny face at my mom's house.

Skyler fell asleep on my brother Cameron's video game chair.

My mom with my monkeys :)

Waiting in the visitors center at Temple Square. We were so anxious to see her!

Here she comes! She was so surprised! They even said she was annoyed that "someone" wanted her to give a tour because she works in fleet and was super busy. Priceless!

I love my family!

The Cummings and the Frosts.

Madelyn has missed her maybe the most!

My sister and my best friend!

Beth and her companion doing their job.

We were able to meet up with them again and have dinner together at the Lion House.

The amazing Salt Lake Temple! I miss my sister sooo much! Only ten more months!

Way late Valentines Day

With the wedding and other stuff life has been crazy! So i am going to do some catch up blogging. Here are pics from our annual family Valentine's Party. We made treat boxes and had a heart themed meal, with heart meatballs, heart bread, heart ice, red strawberries and koolaid, and red sugar marshmellow pops. It was a lot of fun.

Taylor Swift Concert

This concert was amazing! Madelyn and I went Tuesday night to see Taylor Swift and we were in heaven! We had awesome seats on the floor 15 rows from the stage. We are HUGE fans and had a blast! Madelyn even got hug a from her :) I wanted one but steppped aside and let other little girls have a chance. I kinda regret that!

All gussied up before we left.

We had to get matching Taylor Swift shirts and glow sticks :)

Almost time....

Right before it started.

The stage.

There she is!

Love her!!!!!!

Gorgeous!

Pure bliss on Madelyn's face!

Library set.

She changed outfits.

Here is when she moved to a platform in the middle of the floor and we ran over to get close. We were right up front.

While she was singing she smiled directly at Madelyn!

This was her hugging people right before she hugged Madelyn. The crowd was sooo great because it was a bunch of moms with their kids. They moved aside and let Madelyn stand right up front.

Singing "Love Story", aka Romeo and Juliet.

My little pre-teen.

Heart confetti.

At one point in the concert the crowd screamed and cheered for 5 minutes and Taylor Swift smiled huge and got teary-eyed. I love how humble she is!

The last song she sang in rain. It was cool because they somehow had places where there was no water and it formed words in the rain. Hard to explain, but pretty sweet!

Final bow! Best concert ever!!!!!

Balling with Uncle Keenan

Between Adriana's wedding and the reception we went back to my parents house, where Carson challenged Uncle Keenan to a one-on-one basketball game. They had a blast and despite his height advantage, Carson schooled Keenan! Enjoy the pics!

Keenan's cute wife Koseli in the corner in her monkey slipper :)

Adriana's Wedding

My sister Adriana got married on Saturday, March 13th in the Los Angeles Temple. It was one of the most beautiful weddings that I've ever been to. The flowers, the colors, the bride, and her amazing dress. It was so perfect!

The bridesmaids at the temple: My sis-in-law Koseli, Adriana's friends Charisse, Ashley, Olivia, Whitney, and me.

Jared and I with the kids at the temple.

The gorgeous bride and groom, Adriana and Brian McEwen.

The yard looked beautiful, especially with the 60 lighted lanterns.

Rylie's 3rd Birthday

My camera broke right before Rylie's birthday so the pics are only ok cuz i used a disposable camera. And due to this they are also late. Rylie's birthday was February 28th.

Rylie opening a pink ball, her favorite color, which Carson picked out.

Right now Rylie loves Ni Hao Kai-lan so she got a bunch of those toys and a Kai-lan tree house.

Eating one of her favorite dinners, lazagna.

This was cute! Rylie spilled her drink everywhere and had to get naked. So she decided to get her new Dora umbrella and eat with it naked in case she spilled again. Love it!!!

Rylie's cake...i got pics of her blowing out the candles but they were too dark. Stupid disposable camera!
