Catch Up!!

From all the things and people I have seen and talked to, blogging kind of gets set on the back burner for the summer. Same here!! We have had a pretty busy summer and really haven't even had time to spend for myself. So I will update you all on what we have been up to.

OWEN"S 1st BIRTHDAY!
Owen turned 1 July 22nd and we threw him a party at my mom's with family and some close friends. My parents bouhgt this ride-on train at a yard sale and they set it up for Owen to ride on outside. He loves it!!



I also wanted to be a culinary mom and make owen's birthday cake. I saw a train cake pan and had to have it. My mom has made cakes all my life and I guess I thought it ran in the family. Here is the finished product. I thought I did pretty good.



He really enjoyed it and that is all that matters!!



He had lots of fun and it was a great time with family and friends.


FLAMING GORGE
Over the 24the of July, Terrell's family had a big get together. We went up there for 6 days! We had so much fun. Owen got soo dirty.



Our good friends the White's came down from Wyoming and brought their speed boat and yacht. Wow, can I say a good time. We were out on the boat every day. Too bad a never get a tan!!

Terrell's cousins also brought their 4 wheelers and some people even went rafting down the river.

All of terrell's family was there. There are mom and dad, 10 kids, 6 spouses, and 10 grand kids. BIG FAMILY!





SHERYL'S WEDDING
My older sister Sheryl got married on July 31st. It was a busy time to plan all the things we needed to as a family but well worth it. I was one of her bridesmaids and I think the most stressful thing for me was I made my own dress. I thought I was going to be smart and save money. I think I went a little overboard on the time I spent on it though.

The wedding was wonderful. Sheryl looked beautiful and I am so glad to have my new brother Mick.



My brother spencer is in the Marine's and he had just got station to Virginia before the wedding but Sheryl had already asked Lincoln (2 1/2 year old nephew) to be the ring bearer. Well, my mom got these way cute tuxes for Linc and Owen. They were soo cute!!



Sheryl is the last of the girls to be married. Here are the siblings. SUCH LOVE!



SHANAE WEDDING
Terrell's little sister Shanae got married August 28th. I am done with weddings for a little! We weren't as involved in this wedding as my sister's but a little. Terrell took all of Shanae's pictures. I think he did a realy good job. We went up to Memory Grove up in SLC for her bridals and they turned out great.



We took the pics on Wednesday and her wedding was on Friday. She got married in the Timpanogos Temple. It was amazing to see all of Terrell's family in the sealing room together. I am so grateful for the blessings of the temple.

Terrell also took pictures around the temple of the newly married couple.


We then hurried back to Roosevelt for the reception. It was so beautiful. But I am glad all the wedding are done. Owen had to make his tux worth the money we paid so he wore it again for Shanae's wedding. Still as cute as ever.
Here he is with his cousin.



There it is! My busy 3 months! Now I am back to slow daily life, I don't think I can really say that with a 1 year old.

I hopefully will keep caught up better now!
