Blake & Michelle

My brother Blake was married to Michelle on May 1st. It was a gorgeous wedding! They got married in the Salt Lake temple and their reception was up at Sundance. Matt took tons of pictures, but he's more of a candid guy so this is the only picture that we have of the bride and groom. I have no idea who those other people are so just ignore them.

Lauren got a hold of the camera and took these two pictures.

My aunt Keri made the cake. Isn't it beautiful?

We had a cardboard cut out of my brother Tom there since he's on his mission. Matt put him behind the flowers and took this so that we could tease Tom that we love him so much that this is where we put him. Really he was standing in the line next to my dad.

The rest of the pictures were taken at the temple. It was a beautiful day, although cloudy. May is a great time to get married for the pictures. The flowers were amazing. Lauren and Jordan loved their dresses. They were really flowy and could spin really could.

What a beautiful temple!

I know you're all shocked that I'm actually posting something, but this was too good to pass up.  I had to work today and when I got home, the first thing I noticed was Lauren's hair.  She had cut herself some bangs while playing downstairs during William's nap.  She said that she was just tired of her hair being in her face.  Little does she know that now her hair will be in her face even more.  She did a pretty good job though.  She even got two different layers in.  What talent!  Matt hadn't noticed her hair yet so she had gotten away with it for several hours.  She thought she was home free, but she thought wrong.  I asked her to show me where she had done it so she took me downstairs.  Apparently, she didn't just cut her own hair.  She cut off one of her Barbie's hair, two My Little Pony's tails, and the hair off of two of my dolls that I had has a child.  I asked her why she cut off the tails and she said that they kept stepping on their tails so she cut them off.  What a stinker!  There was hair everywhere as well as in a white basket that you see in the picture.  I've talked to her about cutting her hair and I thought she understood and wouldn't ever do it without me.  Well I thought WRONG!  I didn't really punish her this time because I remembering doing that when I was little too.  But if it happens again......

Here are the dolls.  The Barbie actually looks quite stylish.  She kind of reminds me of the haircuts that Edward Scissorhands would give.  Short on one side and a few inches longer on the other.  My personal favorite is the doll in the yellow dress.  I made her in Young Women's when I was a wee gal.  And if she wasn't already ugly enough, Lauren completely chopped off her pigtails which gives her an awesome mohawk.  Lauren should totally become a beautician.  She shows some real talent!
