Reception and Farewell

Brook and Kyle had their reception over the past weekend. (actually forever ago, i just forgot to post this!!)It was beautiful. It was held at Kyle's parent's house which is absolutely gorgeous! If you (mom) want to see pictures from her reception go to davidpowellphotography.com and go to judd reception. One thing i was happy about was that Tanner and I got to take a lot of pictures of just the two of us together. It's nice to have a chance to get some real professional pictures of us rather than just snap shots. I love the shots that came out thankfully, so for my future children, at least I know they can have some nice pictures of their parents! (when they were young and cute). I know I always love looking at pictures of my parents when they were my age, cause it's just hard to think of them in that way without pictures to prove it! I just had to put this picture in because i thought it was sooo not tanner and I. it cracks me up.. the leg up, the arm leaning... tanner's "cool" face he had to do.

chase also had his farewell that weekend.. sniff sniff. I got to sing for his farewell, and his favorite song is Joseph Smith's First Prayer. I almost wanted to kill him becuase as some of you know, my voice does NOT go very high anymore. Chase is going to Veracruz mexico, and since he will be speaking spanish, I wanted to suprise him and sing the third verse in spanish.. and since tanner and I are in the spanish branch anyways, it wasn't every hard. well guys, i got through the second verse, and just as I started to sing in spanish (which sounded waaay better then english... why? i don't know) i heard chase start to cry. The entire 4th verse... was nonexistant. I couldn't even get through it because i was crying... but at least i made tanner get teary eyed... so it was well worth it. We have already missed chase like CRAZY! but his letters sound good, we promised him that by the time he gets back he will be an uncle... hopefully. here is cute little chasey
