So much to tell!

Sorry, I haven't been able to update lately because we were having internet trouble so I have lots to catch up on. There are going to be many pictures so bear with me! First off, school is out, the school year ended great. I am excited to be teaching 1st grade next year and the best part was that I didn't have to move classrooms! This is the first time I haven't changed classrooms since I started teaching. The last day of school, I put the kiddos to work scrubbing and organizing things in the room and then we had icecream sundaes and watched Despicable Me. It was super awesome! Also, one of my students gave me an herb garden as an end of year present. I have always wanted one and tonight I made lasagna using some of the oregano from it. I just have to keep it alive now. I will attach a picture, sorry it's blurry but you will get the "picture" ha,ha I'm so punny. :)

So, school got out on a wednesday and then my little sister graduated on thursday. Can't believe she is old enough to graduate high school! She was 10 when we got married so it's super crazy to me that she just graduated. Can't wait to see what awesome things are in store for her! We had alot of family members who graduated: niece Mykee from high school, brother in law Kelly with his PHD from USC and sister in law Lori with her degree in speech pathology. Great job all of you! Anyway, so here are some pictures from Sarah's graduation:

Me, Sarah and Louis (we missed our brother Colton who is on a mission in Tonga)

The lovely Sarah-seriously she's gorgeous (not that I'm jealous or anything, for realz!)

Friday we went down to my parent's church building and set up reception decorations for Louis and Jodi's wedding. Everything turned out so beautiful!



Josh and my wonderful Dad spent hours hanging the material and lights from the ceiling, it looked great!

Friday night Jodi went throught the temple and we got to be there for it. Thanks for letting us be a part of your special night Jodi and Louis! The next morning they were married in the temple for eternity. I totally bawled, I love my brother and am so happy that he found such a wonderful person to marry and start a family with. It was a wonderful, fun filled, busy day. I never realized what it takes to put together a wedding reception since I wasn't really there for the set up and take down of ours. Wow! Anyway, it was wonderful and they are so happy. Woohoo!

Anyway, it was a very busy week! Lots of fun and I was super tired by Sunday. Wooooo! Glad that Sarah graduated and the newlyweds are settling in. Sarah is planning on going to ASU in the fall and Louis and Jodi are having fun decorating their first place together. Life is good :)
