The mother of all updates

I am finally catching up on our lives these past couple of months. As you can see below, we loved Vegas. We had a blast hanging out with my sis Nycole and her husband Scott, and some old friends. Every day was usually full of sunshine, a dip in the pool, a lot of card games (we could only watch movies on our TV), lots of movies, lots of walks, and lots of reading. We were very lucky to live so close to the library and to be in Vegas during such a beautiful time of the year. The weather was near perfect and we lived in such a nice area, I wasn't at all afraid to take Mackenzie walking on the beautiful trails.
Keith did a pretty good job selling even with the poor economy- I'm lucky to have such a hard working husband.
Last week we spent time with Keith's family in Utah which was a lot of fun and this week we're spending time with mine in Idaho, so if you're in the area give us a call, we'd love to see you.
On Monday, we're off to Kentucky, the three of us in a u-haul...I know 25 hours of driving sounds like a blast huh? We're lucky to only have Kenz at this point in our lives because I'm not sure we could go across the country so easily if there were more of us.
This is such a bittersweet time in our lives. We're excited to go to Kentucky and forge ahead with our plans for the future and yet we are sad to leave friends and family behind. But it's like Keith keeps telling me, there are good people everywhere and a lot of opportunity to have new and exciting experiences in a different part of the country.
Enjoy the pictures, who knows when I'll have the motivation to put up so many again :)

Arranged marriage in the works

My friend Melissa lives in Vegas and we were able to get together a couple of times while I was there. Her little boy Brody is a month younger than Mackenzie but he outweighs (and outeats) her. He happens to be one of the cutest boys I have ever seen! As you can see, Kenz and Brody hit it off pretty good. I know it's a little hard to tell which bald, naked baby belongs to us, she's the one the left (we're still waiting for the hair to grow in :) Possible marriage in 21 years? I think so...

Kathy's Wedding


Our friend Kathy was sweet enough to plan her wedding while Keith and I were in Vegas, so sweet of her huh? We were so lucky to attend the sealing which was amazing. I'm grateful to know that I can be with my sweetheart for eternity. We love you Kathy and Paul and wish you the best of luck! By the way, could her dress (or the bride herself) be any more beautiful?
Kenz loved her "Uncle Pierce"Me and the beautiful Holly- 4 months pregnant and you would never know it! She's such a trooper, she puked her guts out all morning and still showed up looking incredible

The uh unique monument... because what's more necessary in a marriage than a good plunger and some tp?The reception was held outside and was beautiful, it was the perfect day for a wedding
