Fun Family Times...

Last Friday, we were able to go up to Salt Lake for my cousin Robert's wedding. We gladly welcomed April to our crazy family. 


Here is the cute couple at the rehearsal dinner. When I tried to get their picture, cute little Jacob popped his head in, and it was too cute! I guess he didn't want to be left out of all the pictures that were being taken.

My sister and her husband were able to fly out from Texas for the wedding, and it was so much fun to see her, and hang out with them. Lots of people seem to think that me and my sister look a lot alike, but I'm not so sure...what do you think?? I don't see it, I'm like 34 feet taller then her and I have the red hair of the fam. 

Here is the first dance, and I just had to throw this one in, cuz it was just a cute picture. And Robert, I totally saw you singing to your beautiful bride, and I thought was the sweetest thing ever! Loved the song choice too! (for those of you who are wondering....the song was "The Luckiest" by Ben Folds.....go find it on Itunes...it's a good one!)

I also loved the photo op we had at the rehearsal dinner in the Joseph Smith Building.  Conner was so excited about seeing the "big temple". After that night, every time we saw a "big" building, Conner was just sure it was the temple. Now I know that there are lots of temples in Utah, but not that many. 
It's always fun to get together with the Shumate side of our family. Even though not all could be there. My niece was graduating high school the next day, so my parents were out in Dallas for that. And my other cousin, Jon, is in the Air Force and is off serving in Africa. We all missed you Jon! Family get togethers aren't the same without some hilarious story from my cousin Jon.

We had a bunch of fun up in Salt Lake, but it was cold up there! At least compared to here in Vegas. It's always nice to go back up for a visit, cuz we still miss it.... a little!

You and your sister don't look exactly alike, but you definately look related. And your hair has gotten so long, it's cute!

Yes, you do look alike! You have the same nose, mouth, and chin. You also have the same wit, sense of humor, scrapbooking skillz, and friendliness. :)

Do spiritual places make Conner have bowel movements? He sure looks like he is in the middle of one in that picture. And what is up with posting the bad pic of me when you look amazingly cute. What kind of sister are you?
