Well it seems there have been an unusual number of weddings this year. I think I've gone to more weddings in the past 9 months than I have in my whole life. But last week Jake and I were able to witness my brother Rory be happily married to his wife Rebecca, and what an amazing day it was! We flew to Utah on Oct. 15th so we could be there when Becca went through the temple (in Logan). Then we had a sweet dinner at her aunt and uncle's house. Thursday was exciting, my mom and sister and I went shopping for shoes, jewelry, and food. Doesn't get much better than that! Jake was driving around Salt Lake and Provo all day trying to find chocolate for his mom and the APX place for his check, so I felt pretty bad for having such a fun time while he was stuck in a car. Thursday night we set up for the luncheon. The church where the luncheon was being held had a reception just before we got there so we got stuck cleaning that up so we could deccorate. It was hard work but it turned out beautiful so it payed off. Then the big day, Oct. 17th. They were married early that morning in Salt Lake. My grandpa Zaugg sealed them and it was lovely! What a neat experience! After the ceremony and pictures, we headed to the luncheon for some great food from Maddox. After lunch and clean up, we went back home for some R and R, but all too soon we were off again. The reception was nice, it was fun to see family and friends and be able to spend more time with them. The rest of the weekend we just hung out with family, cooked food, played games, watched movies. The usual. I love my family! And I miss them tons but it's nice to be back home and in the swing of things again.

We loved our shoes but they hurt like crazy! Why do we put ourselves through such torture?
Mmmm... Maddox...
