I'm Baaaaack!!!!!

Wow what a trip! I kind of had mixed feelings about going back up to Utah, the last time I was there I had to bury my sister, so not the happiest trip. And then the time before that I want up there us last thanksgiving, the last time that I saw my sister. I was excited but sad, excited that my brother was finally getting married, one more year and he would have been a menace to society! J/K R.J.! Love ya! And happy you found a sweet girl! And then I was sad because my sister would not be there. But it turned out to be a great 5 days there! This is going to be a very long post in pictures so get ready!!
First up, My brother and his girlfriend took me up to Park City to go shopping, thank you guys!
It was a lot of fun, found some stuff and we eat at a cute little sandwich shop.
There was this dressed up Moose that we had to have our picture taken with, there was also some crazy people protesting fur, who scared my baby as we walked by, I have never seen a protest in my whole life(except on TV), it was intense!
Then Saturday night was the open house reception for my brother, my mom is big into open houses! This is the cake I made him, there is a big third layer under the flowers that you cant see. I don't know if it tasted good, I was to buy cutting it!


R.J.'s wife Allie and me, it looks like I cut my hair, but I didn't! Her colors were pink and silver if you couldn't tell.
Sorry, that should be the bride and me! I just upgraded to Picasa 3 and you can write on the pictures, which I have always wanted to do!

My mom and Dad. Wow! I do have a baby that looks like my side of the family! Madden looks like dad, don't you think?


R.J. Was Sooooo tired, he drove all night from AZ to get back for the 2nd reception.

My little BIG brother! Simon is huge! Crazy to think I changed his diapers and now he was helping me with my child! Thank you Simon! You were a big help holding that heavy child a lot!
I like to call this picture "And then there were three" There was six of us and now there are three.

This is all of my family on my moms side, cousins and there children. Grandma and Grandpa are in the middle there.

And my mom made Madden his blanket so I had to take a picture of him with it, I hate that there is to much flash, but his smile was to cute! also while I was there she made A a poncho and a stocking for Madden, crazy fast crocheting woman!!
Well there you have it! Good time had by all! And One of the best parts was coming home to moped floors and clean celling fans! Justin always has the house clean when I get home from a trip! He's awesome like that!

Good to be home, now I need to get cracking on Christmas! Good thing the shopping is done, now We can do the fun stuff, like BAKE!!!!!

That cake is gorgeous! what would we expect, though, right? And I can never believe how big Simon is when I see recent pics. I guess that's what happens...RJ and Allie make a very cute couple, and your parents look great! That would be a bittersweet trip, I'm so glad you had a good time! And I can't wait to see what Christmas goodies you start cranking out...

Your cake is beautiful. I am sure it was difficult to come back to Utah. I can't imagine. I still think about Roshelle often. She will always be in my heart.
