Tasia's wedding highlights

K so I am really supposed to be reading 5 chapters of textbook right now and big surprise after an hour of solid reading already in need of a break!! I thought I would post some of my favorite pics of Tasia's wedding. She became Tasia Berry (hehe that last name still makes me laugh!) on June 12th at the Logan Temple. We had a reception around Layton it turned out dang good I thought considering that we decorated it ourselves! Shawna did an amazing job and I am really proud of her! While we were waiting I managed to get some good shots! Anyone who knows my nephew Steve knows he loves to hug my Dad because it just bugs him to death so I am posting this pic for that reason! Steven also got a loving shot with Shawna as well!
I suppose I should also post a pic of the happy couple too! The others following it are just some of the favorite pics! Like Pops standing on a bench thats on top of the hill waving his hands to his peeps! We always do Charlie's Angel pics to so those had to be added!

Holy Crap it's been a while!

Ok so I haven't been a good blogger and haven't posted since April! Lots has happened as you can imagine! I finally got my associates from good ol' EAC, a niece got married, Pops had double bi-pass surgery, and now is now part of the crappy club of "Cancer"! It is called GIST Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors is its long name it's rare and ugly! Luckily we have a good oncologist that thinks he can maintain it with a medication called Gleevec. Needless to say I have a whole new drive and determination to participate in the Relay For Life this next year so be on the lookout for my website on that! Pops is hangin strong though and seems in good spirits. This is good considering how rumors spread in small towns, Thatcher has him on his death bed down and out! If they could have seen him dancin it up this morning in the living room to his bluegrass CD they would have died of shock! I died of amusement!
I don't really want to bore people with catch up posts from April till now, but I will just highlight some of the things mentioned above with some pics. So be on the lookout for those!

ALENE!!!!

Ok so I wanted to post this yesterday but due to the fact that the electricity was out for like 4 hours yesterday I didn't. I just wanted to wish my very great friend and old roommate Alene Angle a very happy birthday! She is amazing I mean look at these pole skills! I am so grateful to have Alene as a friend! We've had so many late night talks that it's a wonder we ever made it to work on time! It's great to have someone to relate and share "super awesome" dates with! I'm thinking she tops me at this point! Just so everyone knows we have a strict Twins rule now. Neither one of us will be set up unless the guys are twins, have jobs, at least 6 ft tall and church goers! Anyways sorry about the tangent! Back to the one and only fabulous Alene! I am so lucky that I got to live with her and Melody for almost 4 years! I got to see her overcome so many trials (Dave!!), raise Melody into the smart cute cookie she is today, serve others, and grow her already amazingly strong testimony! I'm telling ya I had the life! What a great example I had on a daily basis! Spiritual,Intelligent, Funny, and Beautiful I am tell you what guys out there do not know what they are missing! I've appreciated her friendship for so long! Who would have guessed when we were roomies at EFY that we would be roommies how many years later?! I just can't even watch TV the same anymore or do Power 90! Alene is just plain fabulous I can't say anymore! Heart ya big Sister friend!!!
