Home

I realize it's been well over two months since I last posted. The last month has been crazy. We left May 8th and drove to Idaho for my brother's college graduation, stayed there for 5 days and then drove down to Farmington, New Mexico with Caity and stayed with our "cousins" for two and a half weeks. We helped with the last preparations for our dear friends wedding last weekend and came home tired and happy Sunday evening. It was a truly wonderful trip, but after a month, I am glad to be back home with no up coming trips for the next few weeks. I haven't left the house yet. It's been awesome!

It was such a blessing to spend two weeks with our dear friends. We decorated Meg's house, ran errands, made food, watched movies, played frisbee, went on walks, talked for hours, altered dresses, made cake pops, decorations, programs, rosettes, curtains, towels, bouquets, boutonnières, and a dress, and fellowshipped with friends. It was fantastic and the wedding came together very smoothly. Saturday morning was a little hectic with running to Hobby Lobby and back and then taking stuff to the reception hall and back and then picking up stuff from the reception hall and back, all before the bride returned from her hair and makeup appointment. Pictures were taken, the flowers didn't wilt, the bride was stunning, the groom couldn't stop smiling, some of the attendants cried, the maid of honor made it through her speech (but not without tears), and we partied it up at the reception.

Sunday we worshipped with the saints at the Skeen's church and then enjoyed a wonderful afternoon of fellowship at a park before heading home. I'm eager to see all the dear people at our church back home though.
So there's a general update and hopefully I'll be able to keep up posting with more regularity in the near future.
