Reception

Ashley's reception was beautiful. Her colors were pink, pink, and pink. Her theme was pink flamingos- soo Ashley! (And only Ashley could pull it off!)Unfortunately, that meant Jeff had to wear a pink tie (Jeff is quite particular about his ties... silly boy). Jeff was worried about the pink tie, but once he put it on with his boutonniere he looked smashing! Very wedding-esque.The cheesecake was a big hit.Especially to Brian and Zachary I don't think Jessica was a fan of it on her foot though.

Jessica made the cake, and Ashley made her own cake topper. I think they turned out adorable!
And of course we had to decorate their car! All of the cousins did a fabulously classy job. Props to Eric for the perfect flamingo touch!
Congratulations Ashley and Tyler!!

Ashley's Wedding

This weekend we flew back to Utah for Ashley and Tyler's wedding!!!This is all of us getting pretty for the reception.
The wedding was beautiful. We are so excited that Tyler is part of the family now.
Yes- that is a pineapple on the temple grounds


After the wedding, Jeff and I were so hot we decided to jump into the reflecting pool (just kidding).

Notice all the pink flowers in the background? You would think they were done especially for her! oh wait! THEY WERE! Tyler has "connections"

Mission Call!

Congratulations to my brother Eric! He received his mission call and will be going to Everette Washington!

Woodworkin' Husband

Once upon a time an AT&T technician came over to our house to fix our modem (for the record, I HATE AT&T) and the technician told us that we should not have our modem on the floor because the static in the carpet can ruin it. So my amazing husband decided he would make a little stand for the router and modem. First, he asked for a big piece of wood for his birthday. Then we went to Jeff's parents house to use their table saw, and Jeff brought his fancy shmancy router he got from my dad. Then he made this beautiful stand! It hides all the ugly cords and now the static won't kill the modem. He was VERY proud of his beveling job and LOVES his router! YAY for being married to a handy man!!
