Trip to Washington

Kyle's younger brother, Brian got married August 22nd in the Portland, OR temple, so we went up to visit with his family in Washington for a few extra days. It was really nice to get away from Utah for a while before school started up again. We enjoyed our little break, even though it was really busy with family and of course the wedding and reception. It was still lots of fun. I really enjoy Kyle's family. They are so nice. I love his little cousins too. I don't know why, but they always want to hug me and they tell me they love me all the time! They are all awesome! This Christmas we are going to Washington again, since last year we went to Colorado with my family. This gets pretty tough to have family in two different states! Each wants us to go there, especially for Christmas time, but we gotta' do what we gotta' do! Haha. I'm sure it will be awesome!

Anyways, here are a few pictures that Kyle and I took while we were in Portland. While Brian and his new wife, Kimberly, were getting their pictures taken, Kyle and I decided to have our own little photo shoot. Enjoy!

I forgot to mention that while we were in Seattle, and we were helping chop food for the wedding reception, Kyle cut his finger and we went to the Emergency Room to get it checked out. It wasn't as bad as we thought, thank goodness, but it sure did scare us. This picture is later that day when we was helping with food again, but not chopping. He put on the gloves so his bandage wouldn't get wet. He is so funny! Now, if something is good, he'll use his normal thumb to give a "big thumbs up!" and if it is not as good, he'll use his cut thumb give a "little thumbs up!" haha...fun times!

P.S. Today is my parent's 28th anniversary, so HAPPY ANNIVERSARY Mom and Dad. WE LOVE YOU!!!
