My baby sister is....21!!

Happy Birthday Aunt Dani!

We love you so much and we miss the days when we lived in the same house and Kate had Aunt Dani to follow you around and hang out with you as you did your hair and makeup. You have always been fun (even when you didn't like hanging out with us) and always been loved (even when you give us your famous dirty looks) and we just love you!!
We were so excited to be with you when you got married! Everything was beautiful and perfect. You have made me proud to be your big sister and have been such a great example to Kate.
We love you and we can't wait to see you!

Danielle is married!!

We drove up to Mesa on Thursday morning and checked into our hotel and then left Devin, Kelsey and Kendle Farr with our babies while we went to the temple. It was awesome to be there with everyone! Then we went to the rehersal dinner at the Landmark restaurant with all of Jared's family.
Do I look like a waitress in this picture? I had 2 different people ask me questions like I worked there during dinner....

By the time that was over, the kids were exhausted! Kate thought the hotel was really fun...here is a picture of the kids in the big hotel bed


Then the next morning was the big day!

Danielle and Jared McLaughlin

December 19, 2008

After the wedding, we drove back to Tucson and pulled the reception together. It was so perfect and so beautiful. Luckily, we had a really good photographer there who took really good pictures because mine do not do it justice. But here is the ceiling they put up

And I just loved her flowers so much!!

And here are the aprons I made, along with the women who helped in the kitchen! It would not have come together at all if we didn't have their help!

I didn't get any pictures of the boys in their cute tuxes....Sawyer actually started getting a fever and not feeling well halfway through yesterday so he wasn't in the mood. we're going to have to try it again when they're happier!

It was wonderful but I think we're all glad its over....did you guys know its Christmas time? Here we are, 5 days away from Christmas, and we can finally settle in, relax, and start enjoying some of our family traditions!

check out the rock!

DANI IS ENGAGED!!
