Love is... Marriage is what brings us together...today

My best pal Jeff got married to a lovely lady named Katie Gray on the 22nd of June. It was SOOOOOO beautiful. We went to a dinner the night before at Market Street Grill and I ate every ounce of food I could get my hands on, and loved every morsel. They had speakers and videos and we met up with old friends. It was fantastic. I cried a little, which was weird. I didn't cry at my own wedding. I don't really cry at funerals or when people I know die. I didn't cry when Jude was born but, oh hey, Jeff's getting married so I decided to open the flood gates. I am so grateful that our moms could watch Jude so we could partake in the glory of these days. 

 The temple was beautiful and I love this pic of Jeff and me. Although it does not adequately portray our height difference. 

 Obviously Ty is super stoked to take pics with me

Natalie came to be my date for the reception so Ty could go home with the Jude. 

I love LOVE this picture

Ha, can anyone spot Ty creepin' the back corner? What a guy.

I am going to go ahead and get all emo on you for just a minute. Jeff has been a best pal of mine since we reunited in college after attending Waterford in middle school together. He has been everything for me from a comedian to a therapist to a reality check giver to a bouquet picker upper and man of honor. I cannot tell you how many of my prayers were dedicated to him finding someone as fantastic as he is and, HE TOTALLY DID. Katie is remarkable and they are sincerely meant for each other. You couldn't find a happier friend on earth right now.

Love is... Eat your heart out

A while back, I don't know when exactly but I think it was in May, we went to the Utah Food Festival of International Foods and All Things Delicious for Your Belly. Obviously that is not the real name. I just can't remember the real name. Anyway, we went with our friends Emma and Ike. It was a blast. I ate so much food. I even had a bite of Tylers chicken from Pakistan. Delight! Anyway, next year we are going to go back and hopefully spend more time because Isaac did not get to live "the experience" just the food.

And because I am conceited, here are some pics of the cutest child living it up so far this summer. 

Love is... So You Think You Can Dance

Have I ever told you all how much I love the TV show "So You Think You Can Dance"? Okay, well I love it. Like a child almost. I have spent hours upon hours watching all of these dances and I wouldn't spend my time any other way. Nothing besides music has even made such an impact on my life. Whenever I need a good cry or to feel understood I turn to some of these dances. My all times faves are listed here, with my numero uno being the Lacie and Kameron dance. Sincerely though, there is something so incredibly beautiful about a dance that is so perfectly timed and executed or when the chemistry and tension is so thick between dancers... sweet perfection.

allison and robert - Emma, I have been thinking of you a lot lately. And this dance/song made reminded me a little bit of maybe how you're feeling right now.
