Jaymee's Beautiful Wedding Reception

My youngest sis, Jaymee got married in the Salt Lake temple on Tuesday. As I previously mentioned, I had to cancel my flight and couldn't be there due to my horrible flu bug but I heard it was amazing! Perfect day, perfect weather, amazing sealing, great turn out and delicious food at the luncheon and of course a perfect couple! I was so upset I had to cancel I was sick about it! I'm so happy everything went so well! I missed being able to see all my family there! Last night they had their reception here. They had it in my parents backyard like Brian and I and I don't mean to sound cheesy but it was like a magical fairytale! Jaymee looked gorgeous and Chris looked so hansome! The yard was just incredible! My Dad is amazing! The colors looked so pretty, the flowers were beautiful, the music was great, the food was to die for, the cake and drinks were delicious...I could go on and on and on. I am so proud of Chris and Jaymee and the decisions they have made and the mature, sweet people they are. I am so happy for them, they are such a happy couple, it's great! It was crazy being back there for someone elses wedding! It just seems like yesterday that it was ours! It was fun to think back on and talk about with Brian though. We are so lucky to have access to such an amazing place for our receptions! We are lucky girls! It's not like any place you can rent out...it's far better. Cangrats Jaymee and Chris! We love you so much! Welcome to the family, officially, Chris. I'm suprised I didn't take that many pictures! I was just busy having fun and chasing Anaston! Good thing Brian took a few! I'll have to post more later when I get them from my sisters.

Brooklyn and I
Anaston and I...she was not too happy here
My sweetheart. She looked like a princess! She was so beautiful in yellow! Everyone was dying over her all night and they had every right!
This was Anaston the majority of the night. She was so tired the whole time but so excited to play. She was all over the place and having so much fun with all the other kids. They were so sweet with her. This is why we hardly got any pictures of her. She just couldn't stand still for two seconds!
Brian got a picture of us brothers and sisters while the photographer was doing her thing
My brother Johnny and I...yep, we're dorks! ha ha
Brian and I...ooh la la! He sure looked dang good in his tux!

Feeling Under The Weather

So just after getting serious food poisoning, my body decided to take another big hit! My mother in law caught that nasty cold/flu virus going around and being under the same roof for the time being, we were bound to pass it around! Anaston, Brain and I were unlucky enough to catch it. I am sad to say I caught it the worst out of us three. But at the same time I would have much rather been the sick one than have Anaston or Brian get that sick. I was completely out of order for a good 5 to 6 days! Severe body aches and chills, soreness, a bad head cold, sick ctomach...the whole bit. I don't get sick very much and especially that sick so this has been hard! Anaston started running a fever off and on on my day 3. She wasn't too fussy though, Then a couple days later she got the head cold part and wasn't happy about it. That made for a couple long nights and fussy days but today she has showed awesome progress! She's back to herself and not on medicine! I'm so happy! Brian got the least bit of it. A little achy one day and a little bit of a cold one day but that's it! Good for him! I'm so happy we're back up on our feet, that was miserable! And taking care of a baby...especially a sick baby when you're really sick is quite a challenge! So glad it's over! I spoiled Annie to death while she was sick from Jamba Juice to Bahama Bucks to visit's to the park and long wagon walks, it was so much fun and I think it helped her get the focus off how she was feeling. The WORST WORST WORST pert about this all...I had to pass on my little sister's wedding in Utah! I had the plane ticket and all and waited till the last second hoping a miracle would happen but I wasn't so lucky! I heard only wonderful things about it though and I'm so happy they had a reception here as well so I could atleast have part in that! Sorry Meems and Chris, we missed you so much!

Anaston loves to take books or paper and read to herself, it is so adorable!
She also is so fascinated with turning this particular light switch on and off, over and over!
That's my little shopper in training! ha ha This is actually a bag full of pop cans to be recycled. She goes through this bag many times a day and plays with the cans and acts like she's drinking from them. Now she even likes to carry around the bag for a while!
Feeding the ducks! This was so fun! We haven't done it in a long time and this time she understood what was going on and held her own piece of bread, broke pieces off, and threw it into the pond to the ducks and would just be hysterical about it.
And then she ditched me! ha ha
My precious angel
She honestly has the cutest face in the world! I can't get enough of her!
Being crazy of course
Helping mom fold laundry! Yes!
And she was happy about it! Even better!

Jaymee's Bachelorette Party! Yeah!

For Jaymee's bachelorette party we all went to dinner at Ah-So. She loves that place and the food was so good! They do the teppan right in front of you, I love it! She had a great turn out! I was no fun since I had just come down with the cold flu virus a few days before and this wan one of my worst nights but I wouldn't miss this for anything! I didn't get to stay very long or chat much at all cuz I was doing horrible but she looked great and had lots of fun!My mom and Jade were so nice to help me so much with Anaston! Thanks guys! Thanks Meems!



One for the Toro's!

We went to Jordan's game at Gilbert and it's the playoffs now so you lose and you're out. You can imagine how intense the game was! They started off a little shaky but when they came out after half time, I dont' know what happened but they were unbelievable! They played amazing and ended up whooping Gilbert's butts! Sorry Brian! ha ha, just kiddin. It was a great game and my awesome brother Jordan did great!

Final score
After the game we got Mesa's and Grandpa got Anaston her very own and just wanted to see how she's do with it. She actually did really well!
Jordan shooting his free throws at the end of the game! He's such a stud!
Here's Jordie again.
Anaston all bundled up...it was cold out there!
Half time stretch with Grandpa
Anaston's their biggest fan!

Always good for a laugh!

Every day, Anaston finds so many different ways to just giveus a great laugh! She does the funniest things! She has the best personality, I love it!

Look at me, I can reach my toes!
She was helping me clean my room. Nice! I trained her good! ha ha
So serious!
Anaston loves Jade's car and the facts that it has a sun roof!
Jade was being so cute with her and letting her run her own show in her car. Anaston thought it was great!
Anaston just couldn't help but share her snacks with friend, Gavin this night at the softball games. She's so funny, she loves her snacks but she loves giving them away even more! I guess I should atleast be proud she can share so well!
What? How did she get in there?
Signature cheese face!
She loved it in the hamper
And I can't believe she was able to climb out without tipping it over! Nice technique!

Valentines Day 2008

Valentine's Day was wonderful this year! Anaston and I made a ton of cupcakes and cinnamon sugar covered almonds the night before(just like the ones at the Renaissanse Festival...mmm good!) We exchanged ALOT of Valentine's amd got lots of yummy stuff! Thank you everyone for your treats and cards and money! Woo hoo! We suprises Daddy with a big plate of cupcakes to take to work. I love Valentine's! Brian suprised me with the most amazing arrangment of balloons I'd ever seen, they were unbelieveable! That night was the Mtn View game so of course we all went! It was a great way to end the night!

The absolute best Valentine there ever was! Brooklyn and I
My sweet neice, London

Where did Anaston go?
Can you tell what this face means? How about mom, are you done yet? Gees!
You better believe Anaston was loving this!
Brooklyn gets the best hugs from Anaston!
And of course always has a blast with her!
