Korey's and Stefanie's Wedding

Today was Korey's and Stefanie's Wedding. We all had a blast. I cried so hard when Korey was sealed to Stefanie. I was so happy for them. After the sealing they went to the front of the Temple and told pictures. I did a few myself also. I figure I may as well, because there were a lot of family that I have not seen in a very long time. After that, we all when our home and took naps...besides Logan and I. I was still finishing the wedding cake that day just so that I would not melt while we was outside. I finished putting on the fondant just in time to head over the park for the reception and finished the final touches on the cake. It turn out so great! I was surprised with myself. We than waited for the reception to start. For an hour Logan and I went around and was talking to family members and friends. After that hour, we than started dancing...well, not really. I only dance a few time within the first hour and than I thought "what the heck...my brother only gets married once" and walked out on the dance floor with my sisters. NOW, Logan was different on the other hand. He would only come on the dance floor until it was a slow dance with me. 

We really missed having Cale here with us. We all know that he would of been out on that dance floor with Korey and Stefanie to the very end of the night. We missed you so much!!!

Here are some pictures from the temple. I hope Everyone enjoys them.

August 16th - Doctor's visit

I will say this now...this one will be very short. I do not remember a lot about this one because Korey's and Stefanie's wedding was two days later and than two days after that we went to Cali to visit Logan's brother Nathan and his family (another post that I am hoping to get to).

Doctor will talk to me about another diet that I should try. It's called the Palio diet (I think that's the name)....? Pretty much I would be cutting out dairy and breads and eating lots a legumes (including lots of beans...). I've been trying it, but I always get headaches and bread always seems to make it go away. Why you may ask? To tell you the truth...I do not know. I think it may be due to the fact that recently I've been having smoothies for breakfast.

She also commented on that fact that my body is starting to portion out better. I guessing that's due to the fact that I started on Callanetics (which I have recently been slacking off on) and Zumba (which I'm slacking off on too). I've was eating a lot healthier but with all the traveling that I have done this summer it may take me about a month to get back to what I used to eat. I've also notice that my clothes are fitting really weird now due to the inches that I'm losing.

We also talked about fertility medicine. Logan and I have both decided to go on clomid for 2 reasons: 1) It will help with my PCOS problem of  not releasing the eggs and 2) We would LOVE to start our family. The doctor was going to put me on it right after that appointment but I told her that Logan and I wanted to wait until October - November time due to the fact that Logan has his second conference trip in Italy and I kind of wanted to go with him because it will probably the only time that we will ever go on a big trip like that before having kids. So the doctor and Logan let me make a choice on when to start it and I chose October.

That's pretty much all I can remember from the trip. My next appointment is schedule on Oct. 4th to make some finally decisions and to see how I doing now that I'm not traveling a lot.

Puerto Rico Day 1 & 2

So day one was consisted of flying, running, flying and eating. We first started in Salt Lake City at  six o'clock in the morning...yes that is right! 6 AM! We got in by 6:30 am and then we looked around for some breakfast because we left before breakfast was even out. The flight wasn't bad...I just couldn't get any sleep and the flying part was better than last time too. Our first stop was in Dallas, TX. We had an hour before the next flight we we still needed to get lunch. So we asked someone where the next gate was suppose to be because it wasn't on the boarding ticket and we really needed to go to the bathroom. The Dallas airport was so huge that we had to take a train-like thing that to the other side of the airport and in the end we made it right when they were at the end of loading people. This flight was different just because it's the longest flight that I have been on. Which by the way was 5 hours! I was ok with the first and second hour of the flight but than I got restless and so I ended up take a nap (how....I do not know.) which took up an hour and a half which left the half an hour. Than we arrive here in Puerto Rico! ^-^  It's so green here!! After we landed, we landed and found our taxi to our hotel. We arrive and checked in and found out that Logan didn't read the fine print and so we

ended up with a room with two full beds with the view above. We talked to the front desk and they change our room the next day to a room with a king bed and we are located right above the front door. I also have to admit that the taxi drive was nuts!! I was holding onto the seat beat for my dear life!

On the second day, we slept in for a while. I woke up at nine and Logan woke up at ten ( the hour difference is by two hours...so it would of be 11 for me and noon for Logan). We didn't do much today because we was still learning what going on around here and all the places and what not. I did end up passing out in the lobby while reading. We also when seashell hunting tonight and found about a pound of them. We also found a sand dollar. We are planning on going early in the morning so we can get some huge shells.Oh...here's some pictures of the back of the hotel.

Here's our favorite picture of the day. I hope you guys like it too.

Joseph and Carolyn's Wedding

     Joseph's and Carolyn's Wedding was so pretty.

     The night before the Wedding, Logan, Barbara, Katlin, Amanda and I...with other family members went to the church building ready. It was so great to spend sometime the Logan's family. I was also very happy for Joseph. We got the reception area ready along with the Lunch-in for the family.

     It was a beautiful day! I was fulled with love and joy. Logan got to be a witness for his sister's sealing I thought that was very special for him. There where so many tears of joy in the room. Logan and I both testify that we knew his Father was there for the evidence even tho he passed away a few years ago. At one moment, I also felt someone hugging me for comfort. I love sealings. I reminds you very time what you promised not only to the Lord but your spouse.

   After the sealing, we all met outside and took lots of pictures! Katlin's sister was taking the pictures for the wedding. They all turned out great! We than went to the Lunch-in and got to meet everyone. Afterwards we had like 4 or 5 hours until the reception so I finished touching up the cake just in time for family pictures. Joseph and Carolyn loved your cake. I was really happy with the way it turn out. Somehow I got the yellow tint to the fondant which made the cake match the colors so much more.

     During the reception, I did a lot of running around helping here and there. Getting the bride and groom drinks or food. I also got to talk to some of David's brothers (Logan's dad). It was nice to see them all again. Plus all of the other family members and friends. It was a great day. ^-^

Here are some pictures:

Surprise from Korey

On Friday the 4th ( think that was the date...I may be off a few days but it was around than), Korey asked if he could come over and spend sometime with us considering that we hardly see each other anymore because he's so busy with everything going on in his life. So, he comes over and asks how I am doing and what I've been up to. Than afterwards he told me he had some news to tell me and he thought I should of sit down for it. Than surprise, surprise!! He's was going to ask his girlfriend to marry him. I thought it was great. We get to add another wedding to the summer and guess what he asked me? He asked me to help out with the cake...it's a little depressing because I have to make it with someone else but I know them. But I'm happy for him. They plan on getting married at the Idaho Falls Temple on August 18th. I'm happy for him. Here's a picture of them both recently:
