Two Weddings, Two Homecomings and a Birthday!

We had two back to back weddings within two weeks. Jaxon's was September 20th and Jadyn's was September 26th. 

Heading to Jaxon's wedding.

 Pit-stop in Nephi. My own little "who's"

 Quick bite to eat with our three princesses. 

 The chapel was directly across the street form the State Capital Building. 

 Four good looking nephews as groomsmen.

 Jaxson and Kassidy.

Then it was off to the reception. 

The cousins loved the photo booth. This is about one of dozens. They would pack as many people in the booth as possible and went back over and over again. 

 The DJ and dancing was also a favorite. 

 It was one big party.

After the reception and clean-up we went to Stacy's new house to spend the night. We ordered pizza and had fun visiting with Ben, Stacy, Kevin and Jen. 

It was also Talen's homecoming. His was on the royalty and decided to just go stag with a few friends. But at the last minute his friends got dates so Talen... got cousins. He took Calli and Ashlynn to his homecoming. It's a private school, so it was a little less formal. They had a great time. 

The next morning was Sadie's Birthday. 

 She woke up to candles in donuts. 

But the celebration soon ended after her and Kassi crashed on their long boards. She ended up with quite the road rash. On our way out of town, we swung by the Chocolate Factory in it's new location. 

Calli didn't have shoes so Brandon made her a pair with rubber gloves. 

The new factory is HUGE. It's fun to see dad's dream coming true.

That night we celebrated Sadie's birthday with cake, ice cream, grandparents and presents.

So excited for her Adidas pants. 

She also got a Dancing Diva turning board, stretching bands, money, gift cards and a cell phone case. 

The following weekend we were at it again. Jadyn chose to be married in the Mount Timpanogos Temple, so Friday morning we were up at 4:30am to get to the temple by 10:00. The girls waited outside with other cousins and uncle Brandon and soon-to-be aunt Tracy. The ceremony was fantastic. One of the best I have ever been to. The sealer was so detailed and mesmerizing to listen to. After the ceremony we waited outside for the bride and groom.

 I thought this was cute and had to snap a picture. Tavin helping one of the groomsmen with his suspenders.

We drove up and back Friday and then fell into bed long enough to gear up for Saturday's reception. 

The reception was at my mom's house, so Adam and I went over to help decorate that afternoon. So cute. I just kept finding myself in awe with every new thing Sheri would pull out. She didn't miss a thing. It turned out amazing. We ran home grabbed the crew and spent the rest of the night celebrating Jake and Jadyn. 

Adam found a quiet, cozy corner to hang out in.

Dancing was a big hit. Everyone got involved. 

With it also being Snow Canyon's homecoming, Calli invited Damon to come and hang out with her at the reception. He did, and even wore a matching tie.

and "Homecoming Dance."

What a couple of great, busy, fun weekends full of family and celebrations!

Mid Soccer Season!

Soccer Season is in full swing. We are half-way through the season. We have played all 6 teams and have only lost one to Dixie. The highlight game so far was against Cedar. They were undefeated and had not been scored on once this season when we walked onto their field. We played amazing. Calli had the game of a lifetime and we came away with the win 2-0. We hadn't won Cedar IN Cedar since 2010. It was a huge win and bumped us to a three-way tie for first. So far so good!

And another great supporter.

So far this season, Calli has had her name and picture in the paper twice. Has scored once in JV and once in Varsity, has had a yellow card and continues to play and fight like crazy. She is so much fun to watch! Here's to the last half of her Junior year in soccer!
