Another congrats Danny and Haley!!

We, except for Mark, missed this wedding as well. But this is my brother in law and his wife who were married on Tues May 20. We're excited for you guys as well.
P.S. Look at the other 2 posts below, for Katy's wedding. I did these in order of happening, and did it all at once. (I'm trying to stay chronologically correct).

If we were there, what we would've worn...

The Happy couple.
The kids and I..
Again...
The family....

Ohhhh.

So there you have our partying. Congrats again Katy and Micah...

Our Wedding Party

This is my sister Katy, and brother-in-law, Micah. They got married on Saturday May 10.
Since we weren't able to travel to my sister, Katy's wedding, my mom sent us a party box to be a "part" of the wedding. This is when we opened it. The kids loved their head attire and they ate some of the candy.

This is us celebrating with spartking cran apple cider, Yum. The boys kept saying, Mom we don't drink coffee. We told them that we wouldn't serve them something like that. They finally got that it was kind of like a soda mixed with juice. Here's Alex.
Here's Brigham.
Here's Lissie.
Mark...
And me. A little scary. We'd been working this day so no makeup or hair done. But I am sporting one of her colors!!!


Then we blew bubbles. So fun.
Here we go again. The wind blew the bubbles away too fast to capture them in the picture.


Anyways....congrats Katy and Micah. We are excited for you guys and glad Micah's joined the family. We wish you the best on this wonderful journey.

We've had a couple of visits

My brother, Bryce and his wife, Lisa and little girl Sophie came and visited us! It was fun to see them. The kids were so excited and immediately attacked Sophie and Bryce. Sophie was probably overwhelmed the first little bit, but by the end before they left, she followed them around the house. Elisabeth was happy to share her toys, and since it was a girl who wanted to play with them she was just fine with it. Here are the kids saying bye.
Hugs.
Kisses... They weren't able to stay to long because they had to head off to Bryce's internship. It took longer for them because of road closures due to snow (who would of thought in May?) so hopefully they were able to get their key. We were really happy they came to visit and talk with them.

A couple weeks before that, Mark's parents and brother came to visit. The kids were excited for this as well. They keep wanting to see Grandma and Grandpa, but our visits to them have been cancelled for one reason or the other.

We went to this lava hike thing. It was really fun. It was a little nerve racking for me because there were cracks all over and the kids are daring, but it was fun.
They then treated us to lunch. This is the icecream we got. Yum. 15 scoops. Its called the hungry heifer. It was cheeper then getting cones for everyone.
I did enjoy it... the whole thing(hee hee)
I had quite the tummy ache afterwards. :0). We were so happy they came to visit. Now we just have to make it down to see everyone down there. Unfortunately my doctor says no traveling until after the baby's born. I have less than 6 weeks and can't leave an hour from home. So I miss 2 sibbling weddings :(. It may be a good thing not to travel though as last night I was having slightyly harder contractions. Maybe I'll actually have the baby early, but who knows. I however would prefer not to have a baby in the NICU.
So thanks for all the visits, which helped with my sanity after this LONG LONG winter, and hopefully we'll get to see more family later!
