Our Growing Baby

You can't come alone. An unmarried woman of certain age, unescorted, wearing the clothes you tend to wear. People will think things, bad things.

Lorelia: What things?
Mrs. Kim: Like you're a tramp and possibly for sale.

WEDDING NUMBER 3
That's right party people, this weekend I got to go to another wedding for another best friend...this time it was for my BFF Brooke! It was an emotional ride and definitely one of the most jam-packed weekends of my life.We arrived at 1 AM on Friday...We did some bachelorette party shopping (boas, crown, etc.), watched a little Supernatural, and then went to the bachelorette party. We had dinner at The Cheesecake Factory and then went to Aunt Mae's basement for some quality time. We played this game where we asked Keith a bunch of questions and Brooke had to try and give us his answers. If she got them wrong, she had to stick a huge piece of bubbliscious bubble gum in her mouth...it got pretty disgusting.On Saturday, we got up early and went to the temple for the sealing. While the sealing was going on, I went and saw Amy for a little bit. I made it back in time for the temple pictures (of course, I didn't bring my camera and facebook will no longer let me save pictures to my computer so...sorry you'll have to look elsewhere for those). Then we had a yummy luncheon (thank you Keith's family) and I got in a quick nap before going to Scottsdale with Emily, Sam, and Brett. There is this awesome restaurant there where Sam and Emily go every time they come home to get creme brule (which is to DIE for, apparently).We also got some yummy bread, but no one liked their crust so they all piled it on my plate for me to eat.And then there were these ducks there and Brett was throwing pieces of food to them. But then he hit one of the ducks right in the face with a piece of fortune cookie...yes we were those people.Then we went to the reception! We got to wait in line to see Brooke, then they cut the cake. It was adorable. They did the bouquet toss (don't worry, I caught it) and then the guarder toss and then they had their first dance. (this is when the waterworks took control). It was a very fun and so cute and it was great to see Brooke so extremely happy!After the wedding, a bunch of people came over to Aunt Mae's, where we played the picture telephone game. It was definitely hilarious. I got to bed around 1 and had to get up to leave bright and early in the morning. Of course, the trip is never long enough, but it was so fun and I was so glad I got to be there to see beautiful Brooke Farnsworth :)

So fun, I'm glad you got so much done in a weekend, and you are such a great friend to be there for all these weddings. I was really worried you didn't catch the bouquet so thanks for easing my fears! That's a great action shot!
