Anatomy

 

Just because she's cute!

Today in school I was getting ready to walk out of my lab class because class was over. I was walking next to one of the smart kids in class. His name is Isaiah. Dr. Winch stopped us and said, "I need another TA in this class", I immediately pointed at Isaiah and said, "Oh, you need him!" Dr. Winch put one hand on my shoulder and one hand on Isaiah's shoulder, and he said, "you are my A-plus students! The other kids in this class need you!" He said, "you won't get paid for doing this, but you will always have the knowledge you gain, and whatever knowledge we gain on this planet we take with us to the next, for eternity!" Guess what religion....
Maybe when I'm creating my own world, I will know how to create a body! 
Anyway, Dr. Winch is the cutest old man. He used to be a surgeon. It's really fun to learn from him and I think he's hilarious, although no one in my class ever laughs at his jokes! He is funny though and sometimes he bends down in the middle of his lecture and talks to the cadavers. Which always makes me laugh! 
I guess now I will be trying to get ahead in my class so that I can help teach the other kids in the class. This is pure craziness!!! I didn't even think I could pass this class, let alone help teach it.

Happy Birthday Adelah!

It's Adelah's birthday today.
 Probably her most lame one yet! We've been running ragged and I haven't even gotten her a present yet. That's lame of me, but she is getting married on the 10th, so we have been a little busy!

Happy 21st Birthday, sweetheart! Sorry we didn't do it up right!

Always a little time to snuggle though. Ty is so sweet and always gives me a hug before bed. I love it!

Something Blue Before I Do

These adorable, sweet ladies threw a bridal shower for Adelah this weekend! 


They added the cutest little touches that just made it all so fun! 

Edward...Addie's first love! She had a practice wedding when she was 12 and married Edward! Still such a funny memory! 

Bentley, her one and only true love!

J-Hope, her BTS love!



Everyone wrote kind words and advice and hopes for Addie. It was really sweet! 

It was so precious to be with family and friends and all the people who love my little girl! It really touches my heart. 

Livi, Leighna, Adelah, Tylee

Kate made a kahoot for us to play! It was a hoot! She did a great job and had some fun questions! 

Friend, Kambrielle, Danielle, Jodi

Emma, Rylee, Tylee, Kristy, Janessa

Adelah, Katelyn, Livi

Grandma got some snuggles in with Mandy's new baby.

Katelyn was a super cute hostess! She always made sure all of the food trays were full and that everything was in its place. These ladies worked hard and it was so appreciated! They really took a big load off of my shoulders by doing all of this! 

Stephanie, cute as ever!!
Silvia and her girls were there too, but they escaped before I could get any pics of them.

My momma even made it from off the mountain! I'm so grateful she came! It really meant a lot. Their mission ends on October 1st, so I know it was a big sacrifice for her to leave all the things she needed to do up there and made a long trip down, but I'm really grateful that she did. It was so nice to have her here. 

Lacie and Morgan were awesome to make the trip down as well! They are always so good to me and my family! 


Taya and Mandy too! 
Shawna was also there, how did I not get a picture???
Thanks everyone for making us feel so loved! I know this shower was for Adelah and she was showered with love and gifts and it was beautiful. 
I didn't realize I would get to feel all that love being poured into me as well! 
My heart is full! I am truly, truly blessed! 
Marie, Olivia, and Katelyn, Thank you from the bottom of a grateful mother's heart! 

First Look/Bridals

I have so much fun with my girls! I hope I can always remember this day! 






Adelah and Bentley did their first look and bridal pictures! I know it's bad luck to see the bride in her wedding dress before the wedding day, but traditions have changed since I got married. It does save a lot of picture taking time on the wedding day. So there's that!

Bentley was so nervous...

Adelah looked absolutely stunning! 


He got a little teary but you can't really tell from the pictures. 

I'm not going to post a lot of pictures yet, because these are just a few I took from my phone and I want to post the ones we get back from the photographer. 

 
It was Pineview's homecoming, so the high school kids were all watching and they videoed and cheered for Addie and Bentley when he turned around and saw her! It was so cute

Leighna and I had a grand time taking care of the dress and holding flowers!

This was the cutest moment! 💓
It melted my heart! My baby girls are all grown up! I can't believe it! 



Leighna was hilarious, as usual! 

I made her take a lot of sunset shots too, because look at that beautiful girl and that beautiful sky!!


So pretty!


So much fun with my girls!

I love them so so much! How will I ever let them go!

The Sling Shot

The Babe took me adventuring!!! It was a much needed break from all the things!!

We had so much fun spending the day together! 


It was the most beautiful day! The weather was perfect! 

The fall leaves are changing and it was so pretty.



Kolob Reservoir is looking really low. We need water! 





Then we went up to Oscar's for lunch! It's always so yummy!

On our way home we stopped by to give Dad and Mom a ride! They loved it!
While Dad was on his ride, the sky covered with clouds.


While Mom was on her ride the wind picked up and it was crazy windy!

Addie got in just as it was starting to sprinkle. 

And then it poured! After it let up a little, The Babe took Ty and Will for a ride. 

It's hard to believe this was the same day! The weather was absolutely perfect when we were on Kolob. But we will take the rain whenever we can get it! 
It was so much fun to ride around in the sling shot! You all know how I love a good convertible!

Ty and Jillian decided to go trash-bagging on the wet grass! 

Look how cozy! 

Adelah was supposed to do her bridal pictures, so she got all dolled up and then the rain started and they had to cancel. 


A beautiful, fun day all in all!
