Introducing Mr. and Mrs. Merkley

Congratulations to Garret and Jocelyn!

They were married on Saturday morning at the Bountiful Temple. It was such a great weekend and I have so many pictures to post. So this is just a teaser... I think I will put everything up on facebook!

Ten Years in the Making

Just ten years shy of when we both graduated from high school, Luke and I thought it would be a good idea to graduate from college. And what a good feeling it is! Luke received his BS in Criminal Justice and I received my BS in Business Marketing. We are very proud of one another (and of ourselves)!

I want to thank everyone that came to graduation and supported us and joined us for lunch afterward. Thanks for braving the rain!!

Hopefully I can borrow a picture of us in our caps. I don't know if I'll be able to get Luke to put his back on ;).

Easter Eggs

Luke told me last night that it has been too long since I blogged. Hmmm. Well, I guess it is time for an update. Or a few updates... We have just been busy I guess, so there is much to share.

We had a great Easter and started some traditions with the kids... although Noah really was the only one to participate this year since Emma is still really little.

The Saturday before Easter we dyed Easter eggs and Noah loved it! He loved it so much that we actually ran to the store and bought more eggs for him to dye. We had a ton of hard boiled eggs! That afternoon we went to an Easter Egg hunt a Grandma Caroline's. Hunting for eggs was a new concept for him, but after awhile he got the hang of it. It was a wonderful evening to be with family!

Welcome, Baby Scout!

This post is way overdue. Last week, we welcomed another little girl into our family last week.

Welcome, Miss Sara Scout!

She is a precious, beautiful little thing! How quickly I have forgotten how tiny they are! Emma looks like she is ready to start kindergarten next to the baby.

While Brent and Julia were in the hospital, Hayden came to stay with us. Noah was a little confused at first, but it ended up being really fun to have both boys. Here are some pics of our very busy weekend.

tomorrow is the day

Tomorrow is the day! I am getting my hair cut! I let the results of the poll make most of the decision for me and I am getting it cut short! Woohoo! No more rolling over at night to a big fuzzy next on my pillow. No more two handfuls of mousse to tame the frizz curls! No more 35 minutes of blow drying, 15 minutes of flat ironing to only have it look like the before of a Garnier Fructis commercial (you know what I'm talking about). It is exciting. Very very exciting.

Also, tomorrow we are going to scam for some chicks. It's true. It's the time of year for checking out chicks. If you don't know what this means... stay tuned, I will surely have pics of the chicks we pick up in a couple of weeks.
