Jennifer and Brandon's Wedding


Well, I am playing a little blog catch up. Our family flew to Idaho on March 22nd to see my baby sister get married for time and all eternity in the Rexburg, Idaho temple. It was a wonderful trip. We stuck around Idaho for a week and got back home on April 1st. Here is a photo essay (with a little commentary) of our vacation. 

Arriving in Idaho Falls- March 22nd

 Ethan and Abby reunited! They played GREAT together.


 My beautiful neice Katelyn...my mom says she looks a little like I did as a baby. I am flattered. Isn't she a doll?

Setting up the reception in Idaho Falls- March 23rd

Helping my baby sister to get ready for the BIG DAY! This was so fun for me. I spent years using my sister, Jennifer, as my doll. I would do her hair, even if she didn't want me to. I dressed her up and primped and pampered her. Poor thing. It was very special to be a part of getting her ready for the biggest day of her life, her wedding day. It brought back so many memories. It was special. :)

"Cleaning" up after the reception with Grandpa Banner

I turned the big 26. Cameron was my moral support. -March 25th

We drove back to my parents home in Nampa, ID and played all week. 
First we went to the Boise Discovery Center.


Then Jared was in the passanger seat with my 14 year old cousin, who is learning how to drive.  Her parents were in Australia and we were looking after them. On a drive across town they got in a car wreak. Don't worry, no one got hurt. It sure shook everyone up though all up. Guess who got to break the news to my Uncle..........YEP.......Me. We are so thankful nobody was seriously hurt!!!

 Breakfast TIME!!

Well, that ended up being more like a photo novel instead of a photo essay...but that was our trip. A great time was has by all. And, as always, we are happy to be home but dearly miss our family already.

P.S. I know this is totally off topic...but I HAD to tell everyone. Ethan is officially day and NIGHT potty trained!!!!! We couldn't be happier.
