I loved my wedding. So much! There really isn't anything better than the temple. But... if we did get to do the whole 'walk down the aisle' thing, I really might do this. So awesome.

Another Picture Update Post

I'm still playing catch up on all the adventures
but I'm almost there! At least it's a post right?...
(WARNING: There are A LOT of pictures)

To start things off lets go back to Father's Day...
We went out to Heber with Fez's family and
had a great time playing at the park.
Horeshoes
Jodi and Isaiah on the slideI loved this picture... Keaton, Fez's cousin, playing in the mud.
Oh, to be young again...
This is supposed to be my dad broke because I take all his money.
I would never...
I love my dad so much! I am so lucky to be his lil' girl forever!One of my bestest friends Katie was in
Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat
as Potiphar's wife.
We rather enjoyed watching her try to seduce sweet, innocent
Joseph and dance her little heart out.
Here we are with her and Joseph after the show.
Great job guys!!!
My cousin Trevor got married in the Draper temple to cute Molli.
It was a great day with family and they were such a happy couple.
The next day we had a family reunion/birthday party for
my Grandma Bryson who turned 75!!!
She is one of the sweetest, compassionate, genuine people I know.
This birthday was especially nice because ALL of her children (8)
and their children and grandchildren were there.
That has NEVER happened!
It was a special moment to see her overcome
as we sang Happy Birthday to her as she came in the pavilion.
She is truly loved by all that know her.
My cute grandma!
Bryson family. Each family wore different color shirts
so we could tell who belongs to who.
There's so many of us it's hard to keep track!
We are a crazy bunch!
Wells family! And 2 Alamas!Last week one of my bestest friends since pre-school got married!!!
It was such a beautiful day with an absolutely beautiful couple.
I love going to temple sealings.
With family and friends, the words spoken, and spirit present,
there aren't many better places on earth.
Jared and Jenny Trussell!!!!
SOOOOO many memories throughout my life
have all these girls in them.
I wouldn't be who I am without them.
Usually we're missing one of us,
but we were ALL there!!!
Don't I have gorgeous friends?!?

There's my catch up for now!
It's been a great summer so far and there's more to come!

Fun Friday

We were watching Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives on the Food Network a while back and they featured a barbecue place in Salt Lake called Pat's BBQ.


It looked really good so right then I decided I would take Fez there and surprise him. He loves meat and it would be a perfect date. I took that opportunity on Friday night and oh what a good idea it was! The food was delicious and they give you such big portions of meat that even Fez couldn't finish his!

Eating the yummy ribs at Pat's BBQ
Neither of us could finish and there was so much food left, but we rode trax (best way to travel downtown) and were on our way to the Planetarium to see a show, so we couldn't exactly bring it with us. So Fez had the awesome idea to take it to the homeless lady that's always on the corner of the temple by the conference center. She's there all the time and would be bound to want some food! So we did. She was there, but someone had our idea already! We gave it to her anyway and she was grateful. But on the opposite corner we saw a homeless man that we could have given it to. Darn it! We talked to him for a minute anyway and found out his name is Elmer and her name is Carol. If you ever see them, especially Elmer, please say HI. Just like with anyone else, a simple smile or "Hello" can brighten someone's day.

Carol's feast!
(and maybe Elmer's if she decided to share)

We walked to the Planetarium, played with gadgets in the shop, read up on the planets vs. Earth, and saw Space Station 3D. It was pretty cool seeing how they assembled the Inernational Space Station and the fun things they get to do because of no gravity. That would be fun, but I did decide that I could never be an astronaut because I am 1) not smart enough and 2) way too afraid of not being able to get back to the space station if I were to float off. SCARY!!!

Being cool at the Planetarium

If you're looking for some DELICIOUS check out Pat's BBQ. You won't be disappointed. And if you want a good time, go the Planetarium. There is tons of interesting stuff there!

Oh, and don't forget to invite us too.

UPDATE!

SOOOO many things have happened the past while.
This will be a small snippet of our adventures
in picture and caption form...

Cousin Megan got married!
Beautiful couple, beautiful day
This was best picture I had...
Co-worker Nelda got married!
I was a bridesmaid
and Fez broke open the pinata!


We went to Moab with Fez's boss Jay.
Fez drove one of his jeeps and I thought we were going to die!
He was an excellent driver though and I'm excited to go again!

You're supposed to go up that?!?

Jay's friend tipped a little bit. It was funny but
if I had been in the jeep I probably
would have said a naughty word.


Annual Jackson Hole Wells family trip
We had the WHOLE family there!
So much fun with the nieces and nephew!
This was Fez and my first camping trip together. Yay!

Hidden Falls at Jenny Lake

Doesn't he make a good cowboy?!
This handsome devil tried to woo me with his smile.
Good thing Fez was there!

We had front row seats!
LOVE the Bar-J Wranglers!

Driving home through Montpelier (yeah mont-p!)
we got this guy! So glad Fez knows about this stuff.
Thanks honey! You were great!


That's it for now!
More stuff has happened (cousin wedding, family reunion, etc.)
but I don't have pictures with me so that's for another day.
Stay tuned!!!
