Mr & Mrs Jonah Abbott, part 2

-
Image
  After the sealing which was so sweet and done by a former Bishop of Taylen's family, we took pictures at the Temple and then headed to the reception center (Val Vista Lakes) for the luncheon. Ethan and Taylen's friend Emma gave such sweet speeches! We headed back to the house to take naps and freshen up and then went back to the reception center for more pictures/the reception. It was so fun to see everyone and it was a great evening! Taylen's family did an amazing job and served a great dinner of pulled pork and sides and ice cream for dessert. And of course, there was a dance party! Rosie danced the entire time and had so much fun! It was a blast! We had a great time celebrating these two love birds and can't wait to see where life will take them!

Part 1 since there are SO many pictures to choose from! It was a hot Summer morning in August when Jonah and Taylen got married at the Gilbert, AZ Temple and it was a beautiful sealing and ceremony! They are just the sweetest couple and it was so wonderful to be gathered with so many of our friends and family! Keep an eye out for part two with a lot more pictures from the professional photographer. One of the highlights of our year!

Kids school pictures and such

  These are of when Declan went backpacking for the very first time with the Young Men. He didn’t want to go but he had a blast! Arizona has some beautiful clouds! Also, we got out the Halloween decorations and Rosie tried on this purple wig. Here she is doing an evil laughs ha!  Rosie drew this picture of me and her. She said she is wearing a belly shirt that she usually can’t wear and the spots are my age spots. lol! Josh got to visit Salt Lake for his 20th Law School reunion. Can you believe it’s been that long? Declan and Rosie’s school pictures came back and it’s crazy that I still order them every year. Especially when they cost more and more each time. They are worth it though! I lead such a blessed, blessed life!

Elizabeth turned 24 on the 17th! Anzul and she had just gotten back from a trip to Sedona and he threw her a fun surprise birthday party. She was pretty surprised and it was fun to be there at their new home that they moved into recently.  I love Elizabeth! She is creative and fun, happy AND joyful- just great to be around! She is a wonderful big sister, a sweet wife and will be the greatest Mother come this December. We love you so much, Elizabeth!!

I'm Going to be a Grandma!

Can you believe it?! Elizabeth and Anzul are having a baby boy in December- and they are due on my birthday- December 19th! We are super duper excited for them and for the family that they are just beginning to start. They announced it by giving us a gift bag after dinner that had a "First grandchild coming soon" onesie, ultrasound pictures and the positive pregnancy tests. We kind of knew it was coming because there were a few telltale experiences beforehand but it was thrilling to hear them announce it and give them big hugs all around. Elizabeth is around 6 months along right now and she is a super cute pregnant lady! She hasn't been sick very much at all and is just doing really well! We're so blessed! Can't wait to meet this little one near Christmas time!

  Arizona has such beautiful sunrises and sunsets! The skies have big open spaces and the warm air hitting cooler air causes pretty bursts of sunlight and color! I love it so much!
