From Park City to Yucaipa - We celebrate the Union of Taylor and Aubree

At Park City there was a wonderland of snow. It was piled high and difficult to maneuver through, but we made it. Paul and Bryan are standing in the driveway at the condo. Hurray for four wheel drive! It was amazing that we all made it up there for the wedding. There was plenty of illness to go around, but everyone deserves a great big "Thank You" for being troopers and persevering. It was wonderful to have our children together in temple and to spend time together for a few days. We certainly missed Paul's family as well as Jason, though. And we can't forget Matt who is in the MTC - we missed him too. We had a delightful luncheon after the temple marriage. We ate delicious food, and enjoyed hearing about Taylor and Aubree from family and friends. Aubree's family and friends were quite the singers paying tribute to Aubree. It was fun to just enjoy the celebration.

Taylor put a smudge of frosting on Aubree's nose at the reception in Orem. She was determined to get him back at the Yucaipa reception. However they both got each other pretty good.

The World Traveler Returns

Ray is finally home after spending several weeks on business in Asia...just in time to start "tax season." We all missed him while he was gone, but were plenty busy in his absence getting ready for Matt's mission and Taylor's wedding. We're looking forward to going to Park City next week with most of our family, to brave the cold weather and snow, and to celebrate the marriage of Taylor and Aubree!
