A few busy weeks

Last Saturday my younger brother Trevor got married here in Salt Lake and all of us were together as a complete group of siblings for the first time in many years. Angie came from Germany; Theresia, Jerry, and Jeff with some or all of their families from Portland; Tannen and her girls from Atlanta; Greg from Boise; Kristel from Las Vegas; and we were the destination of celebration. At one point there were 14 people staying in my house and it was a blast. It was tiring, but really fun. Our parents are currently serving a mission in Germany so they were here in spirit and over the phone. We shared some great times together and had fun honoring Trevor and his great wife Becky. I don't have pictures because we were videotaping and I couldn't do both at the same time. I'll have to get some from another sibling.


This is my new favorite room in the house. It was fabulous to have while everyone was here and there was so much wedding stuff around my response to everyone asking "where do I put this" was "in the storage room".
Several of my sisters and in laws have the talent of flower arranging, so this is the bridal bouquet and corsage/boutonniere making party. It goes as follows: Tannen, Angie, and Tianne (married to Jerry)
This is Jerry's youngest daughter Charise reading to Hailey and Sydney. Those two got along for the most part... and Charise was a lifesaver!
This is Tannen's youngest. She's Julia to everyone, but baby Ju-Ju to us! She's absolutely adorable and has a great personality.


And last but not least, our latest and greatest news is that we're expecting in February! It's been a rough couple of months with a scare here and there and a little bit of bed rest, but everything looks great and we're looking forward to a new one in our house. I feel good and want to give a special thanks to my little red bottle of Phenergan that keeps me from being nauseated and throwing up. Life is great!
