At the Temple

Here is a good shot of some of the handsome men outside the temple waiting for the bride and groom.


Mason's family


Lorie's family - the sun was in our eyes!


Mason and Lorie wanted a picture with the niece and nephews, but little Henry was asleep. Ashlyn had just been bawling, but Grant was all smiles. He kept on saying "cheese" over and over.

Pre-wedding Festivities

The night before the wedding, we had a picnic dinner with Mason's immediate family. It was hosted and prepared by the Wildings, who were celebrating their 52nd wedding anniversary! Thank you!

Ashlyn and Mason's nephew, Grant, had a table all of their own.


It was fun visiting with Kari and Bryon.


Ashlyn enjoys eating corn.


Ashlyn spent a lot of time on this rocking horse.


After dinner, we gathered in the Wilding basement to share some stories about Lorie and Mason.

Having Family in Town

Last week my family came into town for Lorie and Mason's wedding. Part of them arrived Wednesday night and the rest came on Thursday. Ashlyn was in heaven with all the company (I think she really likes people), and I was enjoying it too.

Here we are just hanging around Thursday morning.

Grandma thought this was a funny picture, because Ashlyn is only a little taller than the chip bag.

Lorie and Mason getting ready to drive to Rexburg with a very full car!

Seeing Lorie and Mason off. I don't know where Ashlyn's pants went.

On Thursday night we had dinner at Kari's parents' house. The food was wonderful and the company was even better!

High Heels

Lorie and Mason stopped by for a quick stay before they took off to Georgia. While they were packing, Ashlyn took a liking to a pair of Lorie's high heels. She was walking all around in them and even wore them down the stairs! It was pretty cute. Unfortunately, she doesn't get the "high heel experience" very often around here since I hardly ever wear them!

Snowbird

Yesterday afternoon we went to Snowbird with Tiffany and Kyle. We rode the tram up to the top of the mountain and then hiked down a little ways to take the chair lift back. We stopped and checked out the tunnel, which the kids seemed to love. It was a little chilly in there and you might be able to tell from the picture that Ashlyn's lips were purple!





Tiffany took some really cute pictures at the top of the mountain. The weather was gorgeous and I think we all had a great time!

Timpooneke 2008

We spent Monday and Tuesday of this week with Brad's family at Jordanelle Reservoir and Timpooneke Campground. Brent had borrowed some wave runners that we all got to try out. Ashlyn was fine on it as long as we went really slow and no water got on her. Brad and I were able to go out for a little while without her and it was great. Thanks Brent!

The kids loved playing on the wave runners while they were parked at the campground. They would take turns pretending to drive. Here is a picture of Ashlyn with her cute cousins.


We went on a little hike near the campground. I thought the scenery was absolutely beautiful! At the halfway point the kids all posed on a log for some pictures. They are arranged from youngest to oldest.

They were told to give someone a hug. I guess Ashlyn and Berkley weren't in the mood.

On the way back down the trail, some of the group saw a snake.

Brad was a trooper to carry Ashlyn the entire way. She was so comfortable that she fell asleep.

Ashlyn and Brigg sat on these stairs for the longest time posing for pictures.

Like father, like son.

We really enjoyed the wonderful company and had a great time!
