Wedding Week

Last week was a crazy, fun week in Utah at my sister, Monica's. Three of her daughters had big events going on, so we stayed for the whole week. Katelin graduated from high school and will be heading to BYU in the fall. Way to go, Kate! We missed her graduation, but the next day we made it for Kelsey's first time through the temple. She went to the Draper temple and it was a really neat evening. The next day was Collette's baptism. We played all day (Josh took Deryk on the scooter for hours and Deryk had the time of his life, but really wanted on the motorcycle) and went to the baptism late that afternoon. She was so adorable and excited to be baptized! Josh came back home that night so he could do church stuff on Sunday and get back to work. He discovered we had some baby kittens in the garage. We knew this was going to happen, but didn't expect it quite yet. This was probably a good thing we were gone for several more days so they could grow a bit and not be injured by children/Deryk. They are so tiny and cute. The girls LOVE them! We will be giving them away in a couple of months if anyone is interested.


Sunday night the girls and all the cousins went down to my niece's house in Payson and had a sleep-over. Deryk and I went to visit my cousin Brittany and her family for a while. He loved having some boys to play rough with. Monday and Tuesday were spent doing flower prep for the wedding. When we went to pick up the flowers at the wholesalers I was so thrilled to be in a huge flower cooler again. Something about it gives me a little rush of adrenaline. :) Tuesday the girls went with some cousins and Uncle Roger to Lagoon while I worked on flowers. Everything turned out great after a couple of flower tragedies, but what's a wedding without some unexpected problems along the way? Kelsey and Danny's sealing was beautiful. I am excited to see the pictures at the temple because it was the hugest downpoor and hailstorm ever. Lots of great memories! Now we are home and getting back into a schedule and trying to enjoy the summer. If it would ever stop raining.........

Riding the scooter for hours.

Graduation Day

Maycee graduated from kindergarten yesterday. She was so adorable! They each had to say in the microphone what they wanted to be when they grow up. Maycee wants to be a superhero and a teacher. She has been practicing all her powers to make them stronger so she can save people when she is older. :)
