Brooke

My brother Logan is FINALLY getting married. I seriously thought that we would never find a girl and actually settle down. He finally found Brooke about a year and a half a go and they are getting married May 29, YAHOO! So I asked Cristy (my sister in law) and my mom to see if they wanted to help plan Brooke's shower. They agreed. After a saturday afternoon planning we made all of the arrangements and put it together.

Her shower was on Saturday March 28 at 4:00 at my mom's house. We had great food and a gorgeous parasail that was decorated by Brooke, her mom and her sister that made the party that much better. We were able to get to know Brooke's mom and sister and her previous roomates and friends. After a nice late afternoon of chatting, eating and enjoying each other's company it was over.

We are so excited to have Brooke in our family and can't wait for the big day. I am sorry to everyone that I don't have pictures of the fun shower, hopefully Brooke will send me some, since I forgot my camera and had to use hers.

Draper Temple

While the Draper Temple was hosting its open house, Jeremy and I got tickets to go through it. I have never gone through an open house of a temple before. I do remember when I was in young women's we did try to go through the Timpanogus Temple, however it was a 2 hour wait. So on Valentine's Day, Jeremy and I took a tour through the temple. It really is amazing these buildings the LDS Church create, design, and build. They are always so beautiful and whenever I go do a session I wish I could just stay there since it is so peaceful. Jeremy and I need to go more often.

On March 22, we also got tickets to attend the dedication. It is so cool to hear all of the wonderful things that temples are able to do and I know that we are so lucky to have them in our life. I can't wait for the Oquirrh Mountain Temple to open or have its open house, our stake is invited to help out and be volunteers. I can't wait!

Twilight

I have been a big fan of the whole Twilight saga, however I never thought that I was as crazy as all of the crazies out there. Yes I admit I read all three books in a month, then I had to wait for the fourth book. So when the fourth book came out, yes I waited in line to get a wrist band so that I could get a copy at midnight. The night it came out me and three others went. Crazy I seriously thought it was a full moon or something because all of the crazy girls were dressed in prom dresses and as the girls would get their copies they would come screaming out of the store.

So the movie came out and a lot of stores were doing a midnight party. So my friend Annette got me a pass and bought the pre movie, Thanks Annette, so we headed to Hot Topic at South Towne Mall and oh my word, crazies were there wearing their Team Edward shirts and what not. We ended up getting home about 1:15 in the morning. I got my copy, I am excited to watch it, however there are crazies out there.

Let me just say, although the second book was not my favorite until near the end I am excited for the movie coming out in November.
