WEDDING TIME!!! Wow I can't believe my little brother is married! So exciting! It was a very special day all around. They are so cute together!

random guy walking by in the background... always wanted to do that

Carly was so sneaky - she wanted to be in every picture

Wow check out the lighting in this pic above - we definitely look like vampires here. i think our skin is almost even sparkling...

Four Generation photo. Carly, Me, my mom and my Grandma Hoggatt. And I just realized that I totally didn't get the black & pink attire memo... oops. Carly & my mom are very matchy and now I feel left out...

It was a great Christmas break. I think it's always hard to be away from home though. I missed having certain things for Carly like a swing, bouncy chair, etc. And it was hard to follow the same rouine. Carly's schedule is way off now (not that we really had a set schedule to start with, but now she goes to bed around 12/1am when it use to be 9/10pm...). We started off in Spokane, WA and ended in Logan, UT for the wedding. Carly got to see lots of family!

We left Florida with Carly wearing Newborn clothes & diapers and returned to have her wearing 0-3 months clothes & size 1 diapers. When I gave her a bath the other night in her whale tub, she looked so big!!! She is getting so tall. Morgan has been calling her a little toddler lol. She is so fun though, smiling a lot more & being very alert & attentive.

Morgan checked out Comfort Dental practices in Tacoma, WA while we were there and we're feeling really good about that practice. 5 months to go & we'll be Northwest bound!
