Samantha and Andrew's Wedding

Jarad's sister Samantha got married!! She was such a beautiful bride! We love her so much and we are so excited to welcome Andrew to our family. These pictures are not the official ones but I thought we caught a few fun ones.

Jarad and his sisters.


I was lucky enough to be able to make all of the wedding flowers. I had so much fun! The bouquet turned out pretty nice (I thought.)

Korey is a pro at babies, even tired ones with beautiful, slippery dresses.

These pictures are all at the Jordon River Temple.

I love this picture of Brady.

So FUNNY!!!!!!

Some of us got a little grumpy!

Emmalee's Summer

Emmalee spent the summer at Grandma and Grandpa's house. She took a dutch oven cooking class, sewed a skirt, pulled lots of weeds, went to 4-H camp, did chores, and raised a sheep. We were really hoping that she would be able to show at the fair but alas, middle school started too soon. She spent lots of time walking and practicing with her lamb. She got to show off the lamb and her newly found skills at a jackpot. You can tell she worked very hard and we are very proud of her and all of her hard work!

We were so excited that we were able to be there!

With a new baby in the house, it was a little bit of a sacrifice to loose our biggest helper. But, Gracee really stepped up and learned how to help out and be an amazing big sister!!! Elijah was also a big helper!

Camping 2010

OK, so I was a bad photographer and I didn't take many pictures but here are a few from our annual Bear River Camping trip. It was Baby's first! Of course she was spoiled rotten!

All of the girls had a great time! Makeovers, playing in the river, and some amazing SNIPE HUNTING!!! Gracee was not a fan of the snipe hunting but she did love the makeovers!

And, of course, what would a camping trip be without a fishing competition! We did miss Brett's fishing skills! Though, I am guessing that his fish would have looked more like Jarad's. Elijah won hands down!

Blessing Day

Isn't she beautiful! We blessed decided to bless this little sweet heart at my parent's house so more family could be with us. Grandma Kris got her this beautiful dress. The great thing about being a girl is that dresses are WAY fun to play with!

We had so many wonderful people join us! This little girl is loved by so many people! Before the blessing we had some of Jarad's wonderful grilled Hawaiian Chicken.

Here is Miss Elizabeth with all of her wonderful Grandparents!

Grandma and Grandpa Jackson weren't able to make it but luckily I got a great picture of them with all of the kids at our family reunion the week before!

Don't We Have Cute Kids?

Beautiful Baby Girl!!!

Half Cowboy

I went to school today for Kindergarten field day which was very nice but very chilly. While I was there the Kindergarten teacher told me a funny story.

My Kindergartener to his teacher, “You know, I am half cowboy.”

Teacher, “Oh, really.”

Kindergartener, “Yes, I am also half cop.”

Teacher, “OH.”

Kindergartener, “I am half cop because my one grandpa is a cop and I am half cowboy because my other grandpa is a cowboy. Well actually he is half farmer and half cowboy. But, I am half cowboy.”

As I am reading this out loud to my sister to make sure it sounds OK, the three year old pipes up, “You are not half cowboy, you are a mommy!”

What funny boys I have!
