J&A

We made another quick trip to Utah because J and A were getting sealed in the temple on their one year anniversary! We could not miss it no matter what! We were so excited. It also happened to be over Labor Day weekend - so we got to stay a little longer because Jake had the day off of work. Hooray for Holidays and wonderful family celebrations! We spent the day with J and A and their "extended" families and ate yummy food - of course! and chatted. Then we piled in the car and headed down to Manti for the temple sealing. Here are some pictures.

The W family! A completes our family in such a perfect way. 

She is the best wife for J possible. 

Jake and I have really enjoyed getting to know her and we are looking forward to our upcoming cruise to spend lots of time with J and A.

I also love having another sister-in-law

Juliet with Aunt A. Usually Juliet is all smiles for A, but she was teething on our trip. 

Teething = no expectations

Our little family with J and A at the Manti Temple. So beautiful.

I loved this picture because it is represents J and A so well. They are so in love, silly, and best friends. I honestly am so grateful that J has A in his life and for how she makes him better, and he makes her better.

The siblings

And of course. A shot of our family! I was 14 weeks pregnant with Juliet the day J and A were married in Manti the year before. And in this picture she just turned 7 months old. 

July 2016

I figured that since we are headed back to Utah today for a quick trip, I should post about our last trip to Utah in July! Juliet and I were there for 2 weeks and Jake was able to come for about 5 days. It was so much fun. We had a family reunion for a week and got to see so many family members that we haven't seen in a couple of years! It was awesome. Here are some pictures of our trip:

Meeting Aunt A for the first time! Instant love! 

This was one of my favorite pictures of the entire trip! Aunt A gave Juliet to Uncle J and this is the look she gave to Aunt A! Hahahah! Love that silly little baby!

At church with Aunt A and Uncle J. They were loving all the Juliet time and Juliet was loving all the attention too!

This picture won the "cutest picture of the week" award at the family reunion camp we were out! I was one proud mama! ADORABLE!

These two warm my heart. So much love between them!

Our matching shirts family picture! 

Juliet loves this picture and will stare at her daddy when he is at work. 

It is precious!

Love my little baby!

 This is another favorite. 

Juliet and Daddy spending their last few minutes together before daddy had to go back to work. 

Bummerest day.

Grandpa destroying at horse shoes. He and Uncle R won the horse shoe tournament.

At the zoo with Uncle J. That is her cute umbrella that protected her from the sun.

Laughs with Aunt A and Uncle J. Contagious smiles anyone?

One beautiful girl!

This is M (the mommy) and A (the baby). M and I were roommates in college and our babies are one month apart. Juliet is the older one. The picture on the left was at my baby shower in November 2015 and the picture on the right was July 2016. So fun to recreate that fun picture! I sure do love M and her sweet family!
