I got a new camera!

Well I got a new camera and was playing around trying to get a feel for how all the fun new gadgets worked and out came so cute and fun pictures I thought were worth sharing!

Kenny showing us his wheelchair racing skills and how to go really fast!!

GO KENNY!!!!

The Fun Trio. Yep that's us: Kenny, Spence, and me (Becca)

We found out that you can us the LCD screen and take your picture using a mirror. SO if you ever find yourself without the help of someone else to take your picture, hey use a mirror. Or i just thought I guess that is why there is a self timer. OOPS! Oh well.

Dont forget to smile!!!

The Big Day Finally Came!

Well the big wedding day finally arrived. Contrary to my beliefs of sleeping in, we were up at 4:00 am getting ready to head up to the Salt Lake Temple for the wedding ceremony at 7:30 am. Being the non-morning person that I am I managed to get myself out of bed and ready to go. Trust me it wasn't easy, but we made it. It was a beautiful morning and couldn't have asked for better.

After the ceremony we headed over to the Joseph Smith Memorial Building for the wedding breakfast.

The food was excellent and it was so much fun being able to and visit with family and cousins.

Flowers, Flowers, and more Flowers!!

I have enjoyed making boutonnières and corsages over the last few years few high school dances for Spencer and Kenny and for fun occasions. I undertook the BIG task of putting together all of the flowers for Ryan & Jess's wedding. It took me all day long and I was exhausted, sticky, and smelled so sweet of roses, but they turned out beautiful and stayed fresh all throughout the day of the wedding. Yeah! I was a little nervous, but everything turned out great!

Here are a few pictures of the final project.

We kept the flowers in our fridge overnight until the day of the wedding and reception. (hence, the Ocean Spray Cranberry Juice bottle in the background). Ha Ha!!

I have never made a bridal bouquet, but thanks to the internet and online instructional videos it turned out great. My mom always says the internet is like a second mother because of all its wise information. I completely agree.

Jon Schmidt

Yesterday, my cousin Emily, Spencer, and I attended a Jon Schmidt concert as part of a Young Single Adult Summit Activity. We had a blast going together and seeing Jon Schmidt preform. I will be honest in saying he is one of my favorite pianists.

It is always fun to hear him play and see him preform. Especially when he plays upside down. WOW!

It was an awesome concert and so much fun to get out and spend some time with Emily and Spencer.

We were lucky enough have Steve Nelson there to play with Jon Schmidt and play their new song.
