A night to Celebrate

My sister is getting married!!

I will no longer be the only sibling married! 
I am so excited for Dennis & Kelsey

The Wedding is July 5 at the San Diego Temple.

Sense Dennis is a Marine he does not get very many days off, 
so instead of a reception we did an open house for them
because he had a couple weeks off before the wedding.

You are probably wondering why they just didn't have the wedding in June,
well this is because Dennis was baptized June 24th of last year
and to be able to get married in the temple you have to have been a member for a year.

Well because of the marines Dennis couldn't get any time off after that time
except for the 4th of july weekend, but they can't leave San Diego

So this led to us just having an open house during his leave time
and getting married over the 4th of July weekend.

The open house was help in Moses Lake, WA

Let me tell ya, that was the shortest and longest weekend of my life. 

We had to drive to Washington Friday and had to drive back to Utah Sunday,
so over a three day period we were in the car for 24 hours!!

I am so grateful we got to attend though,
it was so much fun getting to see everyone &
to celebrate this cute couple getting married.

All of Saturday morning & afternoon was spent decorating & getting ready

Before people started coming we did a reveal of the dress
this was Dennis's first time seeing the dress









It was so cute.

He was crying and wouldn't let go of her.

They had everyone sign in on the S.

Our Bartender for the night.

She made dirty drinks for all the guests... 
they had some amazing flavors.









It was such a nice night for the open house.


before everyone left I was in charge of the game being played that night. 



Of course we played the shoe game...
everyone was laughing and having a great time!





I also had a picture scavenger hunt going for everyone.
 it was a lot of fun and gave the kids something to do.

Here are some of the questions we asked them...



I cant wait for the wedding in Cali.

A THANKSGIVING FULL OF FAMILY & LAUGHTER

I was so excited when I found out my family was able to go to Moses Lake for Thanksgiving! Tualatin is only 4.45 hours away from Moses Lake, so once they said they said they were going,  Michael and I were definitely going too. We had so much fun with the family, but missed Kelsey and her husband a lot! Hopefully next holiday season they will be able to get more time off from the Marines. So one of the nights we were there we all played Heads Up (The app game Ellen Degeneres made that is like charades.)  We seriously all about pee'd our pants we were dying of laughter! By far one of the funnest game nights I have had in a while!  I was able to catch a few of them on video, but I definitely missed the funniest ones. Here is a look at our crazy and awesome family! Justin and Dad Michael and Uncle Corby Seriously though if you are looking for something fun to do with a bunch of people, this is it my friends!! Do it. I absolu...

THINGS I LOVE

I feel it is so important to fall in love with as many things as we can, but to also fall in love with as many people as we can. As I have gotten older I have started to love things I did not care about when I was younger. I have grown to appreciate what my Heavenly Father has given to me on this Earth. and I have learned that when you love, you serve others. Which is the pure love of Christ...  and that is what will bring true happiness into your world. I am going to make a list throughout my life of things that I have fallen in love with. I want to be remembered as someone who loved everything and everyone. I want my kids to be able to know what I loved and that serving and loving everything is one of the  greatest gifts we have to become truly happy in this world. .......... Things I Love: -My Heavenly Father & Jesus Christ -The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints  -Michael Nelson, the greatest husband EV...

WHERE YOU GO I WILL GO

You always know when someone is going to giving you bad new. They sit you down and look at you with a sad/serious face. Then come the words you new you would hear, "I have some bad news".  And in your mind you are trying to figure out what could possibly be going on. Well as you probably guessed, this happened to me about a month ago. I was eating breakfast and Michael sat next to me and told me that he "had some bad news". I stopped eating and just stared at him waiting for the news,  but I had an idea of what he was going to say. I normally never get bad news and the look Michael had on his face told me everything. We were moving. Once it finally came from his mouth I burst into tears. He began to tell me that we would be moving to Tualatin, OR    Michaels Parents need his help with the Business in Oregon because it is doing so well.  He is needed so that the bus...
