Monkey's brother Caleb got married to the sweetest girl LEXI, December 29, 2010 in the Twin Falls temple. The wedding was absolutley beautiful. Such an amazing thing seeing someone sealed for time and all eternity. After the wedding we picked the kids up and drove back to the temple for pictures (Thanks Katrina, Nate, and Rhett for watching them!). Oh goodness was Belle on something, she was a diaster.... She was screaming and yelling and hitting me, ripping her bow out and hair along with it everytime I would put it back in and throwing a fit of a life time. I couldn't put her in time out or anything because they needed us in the pictures. I was going to loose it.... then all of a sudden WHAM she spit a loogy in my eye. I almost had a heart attack.... Put press forward. Cash was bawling, it felt like it was below zero and the only coat I brought was a american eagle sweater jacket so I looked awful in the pictures.. hahah and so did my children. I am not looking forward to seeing these pictures. Then the reception which Chloris did an amazing job at- it looked beautiful! Belle was a pill here as well... she almost knocked over the christmas tree they had as a decoration. She would not take pictures, she kept pulling my hair and I had to take my high heels off because I could not balance while holding her. So I am bare foot in all the pictures, Belle and I look like a disaster I bet. Then after the pictures she would run and try to grab everything off the tables(glas everything)........ Then in was time to eat and I had almost lost my mind at this point and I asked Monkey to get some food and he said no you go ahead, being so kind... and I just looked at him and said, "DON'T MESS WITH ME RIGHT NOW!!!" hahahah RUDE!!! I am so sorry Monkey. Then Belle wouldn't eat and so we put her in time out and spent the rest of the reception in the nursery playing with toys. A little girl named Morgan came and they had so much fun together... They played hide and seek, they danced, they played with chairs, and I was HAPPY! I have like no pictures of this reception hints all the pictures of the kids in the nursery. At least I got a cute on of Cash holding Lexi's dress! Hahaha he was so cute! Cash was so awesome this whole time.... Thank heavens!
The next day we got up and drove to Utah for reception #2 and to spend New years with my family. Which all my family came except for my sister Jenn- who was missed A LOT! We got to Utah and this reception was sooooo much better- Belle was actually good! I was so happy and so Grateful because it was an answer to my prayers! The reception was held at The Chantilly Mansion and this place was goregous! So impressive! Caleb and Lexi looked so good and so happy! There was music which you can guess Belle was the first out on the floor with her friend Morgan. She was having so much fun trying out all the little chairs and exploring the whole place. Later that night some of my family showed up!! I was so excited to see them. It was the first time I have seen my sister Jaclyn pregnant- she is due this month and she doesn't look like it at all.... Not Fair! After the reception we went to my very generous sister Natalie's house and the PARTAY began.
We seriously just hung out and I loved every moment of it! My mom and dad gave Belle and Cash a Christmas gift. Belle loved hers... Her strong as a rock pillow and lip gloss! She wouldn't stop playing with them! My mom is so sweet she always remembers everyone!! I love being around my Mom, she always makes people fill so special! Then Halle showed us Dance 2 on her wii and we played so long we were all sweating... gross I know! Luke my brother was so hialrious to watch! As usual! Then the Jones' Girls came over: Stacey, Gab, Tae, Aubs, Afton, Tessa, and Austy! Oh I missed them. The were cheerleading a lot! It was fun and Belle loved seeing them. I found Belle and Austyn under the table playing with Belle's lip gloss and later I found Belle and Luke putting lip gloss on each other!! haha Then that night Nat's house filled with people... mostly my family! We ate, laughed, danced, The kids all snuggled on Nat's bed watching a movie, and just were together. Tanna my sister worked so hard preparing everything. I have to single her out a bit. She really didn't want to come to Utah but she did because I really wanted to see her! Thank you Tanna! It meant a lot to me that you came! I love you so much!! Saturday came and we went shopping we didn't buy anything but it was fun spending time with my niece and nephew Halle and Tyler! That night my sweet Father took us all out to eat!! I ate way too much! Thank you so much Dad you are always thinking of everyone else! Sunday came and it was a chill day- Ryan, Charlie, and their kids came over and we had a blast hanging with them. They left and Jac and Blake came and we turned Nat's lving room into a theatre and watched a movie with STALE rice krispy cheerio treats!!!! hahah This New Years was the best one I have ever had, all I could think about is how much I lovee my family. Cheese I know but I am so blessed to have such incredible families... Monks, mine and Belle and Cash! I learn so much from each person! This New Year my New Years resolution is to write down what I love about in each person and try to become a little but more like the people I admirer more than anything!
Caleb's face is how I felt inside!!!!!! haha read the whole thing on top to know why!
So after many many many and I mean many prayers that our car rides would be safe, no snow, and happy kids.... Our traveling was amazing!!! Our kids our 100% AWFUL in the car... screaming and bad attitudes if the ride is longer than an hour and our first drive was 11 hours the kids were AWESOME the rodes AWESOME... the drive to Utah 4 hours KIDS AWESOME!!!! Drive from Utah-Forest Grove should have taken us 15 hours it took 12 and the rodes were awesome and kids AWESOME!!!!! Belle an angel!!! Sweetest little girl in the world- Cash cried tops 10 minutes the whole time!!! Now that is an answer to a prayer!
This was the most welcome sight in the world after a 12 hour drive! Home, and it was beautiful!!
