My family is the greatest!

I really had no intentions of posting today, but I was looking through all my pictures this morning and I got too excited about showing them off.

Before I get to the pictures though I just have to say that I had a great time with my family in Oregon. I wish that Josh and the older kids could have come with me too, but it was kind of fun to have a whole week with just Macy. I forgot how easy it was to have just one kid.



The wedding reception was beautiful. Hot, but beautiful. It was fun to see extended family that I hadn't seen for several years. This is my cousin Shaun and his son Preston. Shaun's wife Janelle was the very talented photographer.


My brother David was the entertainment for the reception. This kid has some very talented fingers. Seriously, his massages are to die for! OK, so he plays the piano pretty good too. Check him out here.


Isn't my grandpa the cutest!!!


Macy and uncle Keith

Well, I did ask where her belly was!

A very tired bride

I had to post this picture because even though my Dad is smiling at Macy and not for the picture he is smiling which is rare to capture in a picture.



This is Sofie, my sister's friend from Sweden. She is such a fun girl and will forever be famous in our family for coining the phrase "looking nice." I won't go into detail about it, but it will go down in history.

My niece Ava getting ready for some serious swimming.

The goggles were a big hit with these girls.



So my sister bought some really cute matching outfits for her girls and we went outside one day and I pretended to be a real photographer. A lot of the photo shoot went like this...

But most of it went like this. Macy is such a cheese ball.

Being silly


Ava is the opposite of Macy when it comes to taking pictures, but we did get a few smiles out of her

And this is my most favorite picture. Sweet little baby Sadie.
