My little sister got married!!

I'm so happy for my little sister. She got married on May 14, 2009. She married Garrett Southworth, so she is now Makell Hansen Southworth. I'm so excited for them. And excited that I now have a brother.

What an exciting event. All the typical wedding stuff took place. She had engagement pictures (I took a few), bridals, I came and watched (and took some, not very good ones), a couple bridals showers (I helped plan one), and then the wedding dinner, marriage in the Salt Lake temple and reception at Eaglewood. It was fabulous!

Some engagements (she had a professional take more than this, I just took a few for fun)

Bridals/Groomals

This is the dork she married... ha ha ha kidding Garrett, we love you!

My mom and I got a little bored... sorry Makell. We had fun playing with Makell's veil and...

Smelling the flowers...

...and taking pictures of ourselves. We are so funny ha ha ha.

Makell's bridal shower. She matched the colors of the shower by accident, but still so cute.

Lots of yummy food :)

I made her a garter, and an advice book, and I’m still working on a recipe book for them.

They are so in LOVE!!

The temple. I didn't take very many pictures after her temple sealing because I had the video camera.

A little windy

Say cheese!

The cutest baby ever!!... Seriously.

All the planning paid off. It was a crazy couple of months getting ready for it all, but it turned out so AWESOME!! Her colors were chocolate brown and lime green. Gorgeous!! She was so meticulous and planned every little detail. She did such a great job. Congrats you guys!!! We love you.

Wheeler Farm, Swimming and some other pictures

This is how this post was going to start two months ago:

I need to take this opportunity while all three kids are sleeping to do a quick post. On Thursdays I babysit my friends two kids. Lindsey is 2 and Talmage is the same age as brock, almost 6 months. It is a miracle when they all sleep at the same time.

As you can tell from my lack of posts in the last little bit, they woke up... ha ha ha. There have been many other things that have interrupted my posting lately besides babies. Busy, busy, busy. Ill go over these pictures real quick since this post has been waiting to be published for quite some time, but I will tell you all about what we have been up to in my next post.

On March 21, the first day of spring, we went to Wheeler Farm. Brock was a little bit young to really enjoy himself, but I still think he had a good time. We went with a bunch of our friends and we decided that this should be our yearly tradition. We will go to Wheeler Farm on the first day of spring. The weather was perfect. We had a lot of fun.

Brock all ready to go.


Just looking at the horsies.

So intent. He really liked looking at the animals. They were so intriguing to him.

Horsie eating hay.

All the kiddos. Lily, Brock, Evan, Lauren, Max, Carson, Colby, Taven and Ryker.

Colby driving the tractor.

Cute cousins, Colby and Carson driving the tractor. They loved this thing.

Baby lamb.

Big ugly pigs, oink, oink.

This pig totally wanted to eat my baby. He kept getting closer and closer.

Brock was fine until he got this close. Look at his face... poor little guy. The big pig almost got him. Ha ha ha!!!

Brock was pretty tired by this point. He wasn't too thrilled to be sitting on this pile of hay.

Our friend Lily.

This is our friend Michelle. Carson broke her glasses but she still wore them. You can't tell from this picture, but they were pretty crooked. It was so funny.

Plumb tuckered out.

This cow really needed some milking. Look at those boobies.

Out for a hay ride.

This is Brock's first time in the pool. You can't tell by the look on his face, but he LOVED it. He was splashing and blowing bubbles and smiling the whole time. We dunked him a couple of times and he held his breath and was a little bit scared, but then smiled really big. He did really good. We hope to get him into swimming lessons soon.

Sarah, Lily, Rachael and Max.

Ceara and Drake, Lisette and Talmage, Amy and Shaylee, Kami and Brock, and Michelle and Colby.

Same as above plus Candice and Hunter on the left side, and Marie and Carson on the right side.

Look at that crazy red hair. Love it!!

Hi my little drooler.
