MAY 24, 2012
Ashley and Lytton came down so I could do their MARRIAGE LICENSE!! We went to Granny Annie's first, then got the LICENSE and then we went and bought Ashley's TEMPLE CLOTHES! Lytton had to go to work right after so Ashley stayed down with me so we could go SHOPPING. We found her WEDDING JEWELRY, me a dress to wear to the TEMPLE and now we are SET!

Anna and Tanner threw Ashley an early BACHELORETTE PARTY since this was going to be like the only weekend she could come down. They had all the FRIENDS meet at OLIVE GARDEN and then they went back to Tanner's Grandma's basement to have their little PARTY! She had a lot of FUN!

ASHLEY'S BEAUTIFUL BRIDALS

MAY 19, 2012
Remember when I told you that we had a FABULOUS PHOTOGRAPHER? Well, he drove to Arimo, Idaho to shoot Ashley's BRIDAL PHOTOS, at Lytton's house. These pics are taken in his back yard. It was so much fun and totally amazing! At first we were nervous because it was so WINDY but after lots of prayers, it died down and it turned out to be BEAUTIFUL! There are lots of pics but I just couldn't put  in one or two. He took 711 pics! It was SO hard to choose my favorites but I kept coming back to these:
                                        This one is my favorite! This is just Ashley!



This was hilarious!! We had to do one that looked like Green Acres! Total American Gothic!












Yes, she really jumped out of the truck...like 10 tiimes! I was so worried she was going to ruin her dress!









MOTHER'S DAY AT THE PARK

MAY 13, 2012
I was naughty and went to lunch with Bill and Thera and the kids at IGGY's. Zach and Kell are so good and wouldn't go out to eat on Sunday but they met up with us at the park to spend time with Bill and the kids before they headed back to Vegas.
                                  This was our garbage can lid full of delicious appetizers!

CARRIAGE RIDE

We had a very long day with Ashley's shower, fishing and going out to dinner, so we were exhausted when Thera said she wanted to go on a CARRIAGE RIDE in SLC. But we went anyway and had a great time! Bill rented 2 carriages and we took a ride up MEMORY GROVE. It got freezing cold with the breeze and plus it was almost midnight when we finished our ride. But we had a great time!
                                         Zach and I snuggled in heavy blankets to stay warm!
                                                              Mason and Graham

FANTASTIC FISHING!

Since Bill came in town and had the boys we all decided to go to PONDS PARK for some FISHING. I couldn't believe how fast they were CATCHING FISH! It was so fun and relaxing. Boston loved being OUTDOORS and they boys had a great time because they kept catching so many fish!
