R & R's Open House

Here are a few photos from the Open House for Rich and Randi. It was held in the Patch's beautiful backyard and designed by Tayva, my very talented and right-brained mother in law. It looked amazing and had such a unique style (Anthropologie mixed fabrics- so now!) I helped with a few things, but so did a lot of people.
Enjoy the photos!

Rich and Randi

It's Official!

Here are some photos from Rich and Randi's beautiful wedding! It was a wonderful day (with no rain) and we were so happy to be a part of it all. Rich and Randi are a perfect couple and I'm thrilled to have Randi as a new addition to the family.

I've got some video I need to post of Graham dancing at the reception. He was "cutting the rug" as Marty likes to say! :)

Yes, Marty is my old, yet very handsome old man! And Graham may have picked up some of Marty's dancing DNA! Watch out world!

Graham watching Curious George!

He only occasionally looks at me with those eyes!

But aren't they beautiful?

PHOTO 101

These photos are from when Graham and I joined Marty on a location scout for an upcoming commercial. We were at Antelope Island on the Great Salt Lake. I had never been there before and thought it was very beautiful! I must admit it was better from the car. The bugs and sulfur were intense, especially when the sun started to set. We had a fun time and got some pictures of us along the way. Marty took all the photos, but tonight he showed me how to use some different techniques on my Photoshop. What do you think? I'm proud of my multi-talented husband for having the patience and skill to teach a beginner a few tricks. It has been a very busy Sabbath between two sharing times, Marty teaching Young Mens, visiting two families and dealing with our darling, very tired boy. We needed to unwind and have had a great evening on the sofa! I love you Marty Patch! I'm so happy you are mine!

Black Tie and Black Dress

We got all dressed up for a big event! Marty's company won an award at Utah's "Best of State." There was orchestral music, acceptance speeches, but no red carpet. We had so much fun and are now more motivated to work towards a real Oscar.

Brangelina you got nothing on us, but more kids!

Dallas

After Delaware we flew to my other brother's home in Dallas, Texas. He graduated with his Masters in Architecture and we couldn't be more proud of him. Marty, Graham and I stayed with Scott and it was so wonderful to be able to spend so much time with him because we really don't get to see him that much! (If we buy this home we are looking at in SLC we plan to fly him up and get his expertise with the remodel... so we will see him then!) We ate the most delicious food in Dallas and were able to get a quick tour of the city. We will definitely be going back again to have a more in depth stay. Thanks Scottie! We love you!

(I think my eyes might be closed in the below picture, but it is good of everyone else!)

Pixie Hallow

Here is a photo of our fairy houses we built while in Delaware! We got the idea from Megan and her darling girlies, check her flowing creative juices out here. Elle, Jill and I had such a wonderful afternoon that I questioned who had more fun, Elle or me? It truly might have been me! Their backyard forest was the perfect setting for such a fairy dwelling and something just might be arriving in the mail to sweep those fairy sized porches! We'll just have to wait and see!
