Updating Time

I had two cousins get married a week ago down in Utah. One on my dad's side of the family and one on my mom's side. It was nice that they planned it so well so I could go to both! I loaded up the ol' car drove down Friday night in time for Ashley's wedding (dad's side). It was really nice to be with aunts and cousins and siblings that evening. The bride and groom looked great! Sorry I don't have any pictures of that evening.

Saturday was a busy day filled with wedding events. The sealing, wedding luncheon, and reception. I loved being able to attend the sealing and hear the powerful counsel and advice the sealer gave. The Spirit was there and you could tell that Ambria and Shane were prepared to be there. I loved that.



Melissa, Elicia, and Yanin were able to come as well! Thanks ladies for making the trip down and hanging out for awhile. I love how weddings bring families and close friends together. Such a happy time.


Thanks family for letting me stay with you. Now can you see how my two younger brothers look so much alike. I am grateful for such a great family. Love you all--both those that were there and those that couldn't make it!

Here is a picture of Yanin and me. Happy Birthday Yanin on the 5th of May!! I hope you had a great day!



And for all of you that remember the "mexi-q" days and the nights filled with making pico de gallo...this is for you! Days to always remember...Happy Cinco de Mayo (a few days late!!)

Looks like a lot of fun! Seeing the salsa reminds me of the times I spent with you and other friends eating the amazing salsa. Sometime I need to get the recipe from you, if that's okay. Thanks for your friendship and example, hope things are going good for you. Take care!

Okay...now I'm totally craving your famous pico de gallo! That looks SOOOOO good! I'm glad you were able to go to Utah and spend time with family. Weddings really are a great time. We have a nephew getting married in a couple of months, and we're all looking forward to that. Your brothers really do looks so much alike! Wow! It was fun to see pictures of Melissa, Yanin, and Elicia on here. I love those girls!
