Just Blogging to Say I’m Not Blogging …

My home computer is broken so my blog is being neglected. Wow—I never thought I’d say that! Here’s an update in a nutshell: we moved upstairs in Jen and Mike’s house since they are in Arizona now. We love the extra room and especially the sunshine that didn’t used to reach us in the basement abyss! Clay started assistant coaching for the BYU men’s soccer team and he loves it, although it’s hard for him to not play. I am absolutely loving my job at Utah Valley Magazine. And we are going to Australia in less than two months! I can’t wait to take Clay there and show him where I used to live and have him meet my friends there. Happy first day of fall!

Re-living my Wedding Day


Isn’t it every married woman’s dream to re-live her wedding day?
… or at least parts of it?

Well that’s exactly what I got to do the other day with my friends and sisters. Angela, a MAC makeup artist, two hairstylists from Taylor Andrews Academy, and Jessie from Jessie Alexis Photography got us all ready for a bridal photo shoot. Fun times, intense makeup! It was fun to be in my dress again and have bridals taken with my sisters (including Rachel, who wore Jeni’s wedding dress).
