January

Two things worth recording in January was our Christmas Present to our neighbor from 2009, I'm glad she finally redeemed it, to go to the Medieval Tournament. The food was fine, not great. The program was good, just a little too long, and more intense than either Chris or I thought it would be. We were cheering for the white and black knight who lost. Spencer got scared and ended up sitting on Chris' lap and Jared was so in to it his little arms were bent at the elbow and every time the knights would go in for a jab or whatever his little hand would come up and just shake, he was totally into it. I wish I had a video of it but I will remember it forver.
The next thing was my little sister and her husband came out! What a treat! It wasn't for a long time but we squeezed in as much as we could, one being the Museum and Science and Industry we love this place.While there we explored a new part of the museum we hadn't yet set foot in. This section dealt with the body and one activity you competed against someone to see who could relax their minds the most. Camille and Mike did it first and Camille whooped him and then Jared and Spencer tried it out. They were so cute and they drew a crowd. Lots of pictures were being taken and only a few from my camera.Jared was the winner.Mike and Camille watching the boys in action. Everyone had this expression. They really did look cute.

I always LOVE it when family comes. Wish it could be more often. I'll take it when I can.

Camille's Wedding

My little sister is now Mrs. Reese! Camille's wedding was at the end of our trip but I want to start with it since it was the culminating event and she was just beautiful! We're excited to have Mike in the family and just wish we were closer to do more with them. It was a busy day with them being married in Bountiful and reception the same day in Idaho but it was worth it!

This post is mainly full of pictures. For even better pictures you can go to my cousin's blog where she took their pictures professionally. She did an awesome job. Also on her blog if you scroll down are their engagement pictures and Camille's bridals.

Becoming a Nurse

She did it!!! I have to brag about my little sister for a moment... She just turned 19 in November and graduated this week with her associates in nursing! Congrats Camille! She started a year early in college after graduating a year early from high school and then once in school half of the nursing students needed to graduate a semester early, so she applied and was accepted. Now she's off to the University of Utah Hospital and will work while pursing her bachelors degree in nursing. So now I have two sisters that are nurses and both went to BYU-I for their degrees. I should be well taken care of wouldn't you say. I had the opportunity of driving down with my two little boys to Rexburg to support her in this accomplishment. I met up with my parents, sister Heidi (and Emily), and sister Angela (and Kenya, Naomi, and Micha). Sorry about the blur there must have been a smudge on the lens.
It's amazing how much people can accomplish when they put their minds to it. I know there were times when Camie questioned her ability but she persevered and will reap the rewards now. It reminds me of what Chris said when I was worried about getting married. I felt too young and there was still so much I wanted to do in life. He told me that if I wanted to do something then I would and could if I wanted to bad enough. And he's right. I really believe we are our beggest obstacles in life. I feel like I limit myself more than anything else just by saying I can't or don't have the time (which I feel is very valid at times!) Anyways, good job Camille, you're an example to all:)
