Strawberry Fields

I think we've made a Memorial Day tradition...picking strawberries at a local farm. Mmmm...they were good. And we still have a big bowl full. Jam or freeze them for smoothies?


And we always end with lunch in our favorite little German town. I can't resist the bratwurst and saurkraut. It was a good day.

Eurovision 2009

So, Tad has some Norwegian pride and was excited to hear a Norwegian just won the Eurovision 2009 contest. After watching the performance my kids became obsessed. In Eliza's words, "Mom, when I grow up can I be on that movie and sing and play the biolin and the princesses can help me." Everyday they beg to watch the violin movie several times (Preston is even more convinced that he is going to play the violin). They can now sing along and Preston even acts out the movements. I must say it's a catchy song and Alexander Rybak has an infectious smile.

The Mr. and Mrs.

Krissy and Aaron were married for Forever on May 1

It's been a little while since we've had the 5 of us siblings all together.

It was hot hanging around outside the temple, but not the 116 degrees we enjoyed on our wedding day.

Sisters

My life long dream of being a bridesmaid was fulfilled, but I had to stand next to these two gorgeous babes, not to mention the beautiful bride.

Parents of the Bride

The Willes were so awesome and came down to take part in the festivities. Everyone thought Logan was Tad's twin...it was fun to watch the confusion.

I just love this Lady

The dinner reception was beautiful up against Zion's National Park.

There was a fun table to keep the kiddos entertained.

Kalai came and serenaded us all and the happy couple. After Kalai we had a jammin' dance party to 70s music. I think my favorite part of the evening was getting my groove on with all of my fabulous relatives. Congrats

Krissy + Aaron...we love you guys!

Aaaah!!!

Our internet is down and I am going crazy (I'm on a borrowed computer and had to vent my frustrations)!! We were in St. George for my sister's wedding (more on that to come) and my parent's internet was down and then up and down. It's been awhile and I'm feeling a little lost without my ability to randomly check the weather, define a word, blog, email, pay the bills, manage accounts, look up who the girl is that starred in Wolverine, etc... I remember the days when there was no internet...what has happened to me!?!
