Family Celebrations!

Yesterday my little brother, Devin, got married in the Salt Lake Temple. It was a beautiful day, and we had such a good time. We are so excited to have Megan in our family. She is so much fun. Somehow, I only got one really blurry photo of the happy couple. Anyway, here they are:

Here's Halle and me at the temple.

And, lots of pictures at the reception:

In other family news, we are excited for a new niece! Sam's sister, Roxane and her husband Mike, welcomed Baby Pernille last week. We are sad that she lives in D.C., but we are looking forward to meeting her when they come out in about a month!

Rain, Rain Go Away!

Somehow, our summer of swimming and "fun in the sun" has turned into staying inside watching the rain. And, by rain, I mean buckets and buckets of rain. Crazy weather! Anyway, we've been moving our fun inside and keeping our fingers crossed that we'll be able to enjoy some sunshine soon.

We enjoyed a day at the Children's Museum with Dani, Isabel, and Paisley. It was great to hang out with them. Halle and Isabel got along great, and Dani and I got to see our childhood dream of having daughters as friends come to life.

We've been playing with friends a lot, too! Quinsi and Halle love to have beauty parties. They get their hair, nails, and make-up done just so they can go play in the dirt.

Chasers has been enjoying his baths. He would stay in the tub all day if I let him. It's the only place that I can get him to hold relatively still.

And somehow, Chase has already learned to pull himself up to his feet. All of a sudden, he can make it up all of the stairs, "speed crawl", and get on his feet. He keeps me busy!
