I don’t even know where to start!

The last eight months have been very busy for us, and this last month was no different. 

We started May by sending C home to get his baby.  I don’t have any pics since we’ve been back, but here’s a pic of it back home:

Then we went back to Utah for two weddings.  I had an old roommate get married, and then my little brother, with a week in between … a week of fun with my mom!  We did a little of everything.

We visited with relatives …

We went to the zoo … (you can tell poor J got tired out with all the excitment!)

We went to the aquarium …

And then we got to the main event!  Congrats to my brother and his beautiful bride!

You’ve never seen a wedding like this one!  They did a really good job of putting their personality into their wedding.

I have to say the flower girls were especially cute,

as was this little man!

We wore ourselves completely out!

Meanwhile, the kids keep getting bigger.  I hate it when I get outfits given to me, and then when the kids grow into them, the season doesn’t fit!  Poor J has this beautiful fleece outfit, and now it’s summer!  Oh, but he’s so cute in it!

L got this shirt from her Great Grandma (the one she’s named for), when she was born, and she’s finally grown into it.  (This one does fit!)

It reminds me of Grandma, how simple, but classy it is.

At home, I’ve finally “mastered” that laminated dough recipe.  This one I put some marzipan and chocolate in the inside, and wow, I was very pleased.

And …. We added to our family this month!

My friend down the street was trying to get rid of her bunny, and I couldn’t help but think how a rabbit would fit all our pet restrictions and requests … so I brought him home!  Meet Trouble, who is actually a lot of trouble!  First, I had to make him a new cage … some thing he could live in outside without my worrying about if it will rain on him.  So, in our final trip to my parent’s house, my amazing dad took a day and helped me buy and cut the lumber to put together this:

We’re really enjoying him, and as rabbits go, he’s a very friendly bunny.

So, that’s our life in a nutshell.  Hopefully I’ll do better keeping up with the blog posts in the future.  :-)
