Still Alive

So sorry it has been so long since we have posted. We promise to repent. We had such a fun and crazy time at home with family and there wasn't much time to keep up the blog. But no excuses--we are bad! As we go through all the pictures that we took this past month we will update you on what we have been up to.


Our first big event while being home was Travis and Courtney's wedding. It was so much fun be there with the whole Slater family. They are a very happy couple, and we couldn't help but reminisce about our own wedding 6 years ago. Jack and Macy looked so adorable all dressed up for the reception. Weddings are always stressful, but it was a really fun time. Ryan flew out for the wedding and then had to fly back to Ohio to take a test (bad timing on the wedding, Trav), but it all worked out. Ryan rejoined us back in Utah a week later.

About the same time as the wedding, Ryan's parents got their mission call. They will be serving in the Omaha, Nebraska mission at the Winter Quarters visitors center. They enter the MTC on Aug. 18th. We are so very excited for them and so proud. We will miss them, but they will have some great experiences. We love you Grammie and Grandpa!

That is so cool about Ryan's parents, what a cool oppurtunity, wish them luck for me, by the way I love the black/white dress and if I were tiny and cute I would borrow it too! :)

I'm going to have to echo all the comments! Your kids looked so cute, but i have to say you rocked that dress!! You look really good. I hope I bounce back from my baby as easy as you did with Macy!

What an awesome mission call. I visited WQ for the first time when we drove out here almost a year ago. What a special place to serve.
