The Yurt

Last weekend Erik took the three older boys up to Idaho to visit Jared and Trina. Jared's partner owns a yurt a few hours away from their house, so they all went and had a few fun days in the snow. They had a wonderful time!
This is the yurt from outside. The boys hanging out inside the yurt.

There were a few (minor) accidents throughout the day. Jaxson (below) crashed and got a fat lip and bloody nose. I don't know if you can tell in the picture, but he was pretty excited to come home and show me his battle wounds.

Erik and Jared took the boys out on a sleigh ride to see a heard of elk. There were hundreds of them, and they surrounded the sleigh. Jaxson was so excited to have his camera, he took almost 50 pictures. He was very excited to show me every one!

Dallin was very excited to tell me all about how he saw so many elk.

Thanks Jared and Trina for hosting our boys! They had a fantastic time, and we can't wait to do it again.

Kristin + Clay

Last Friday was my little sister Kristin's wedding. It was a fun night, and she looked absolutely beautiful! We are so excited to welcome Clay into our family.

These are a few bridal shots my mom and I took before the wedding.

The wedding took place at the Rose Shop in Sandy. It was a beautiful setting, and it was amazing to have so much green in February.

Neither Kristin or Clay like dessert, so this was their wedding cake. It turned out so pretty, and it smelled amazing!


My boys loved it! We couldn't find them for awhile and realized that they were camped out at the fruit. I think between the three of my older boys they ate almost every strawberry.

The wedding dinner. I think Kristin had a few bites. :)
Congratulations Kristin and Clay. We love you!
