I don't want to drive up to the pearly gates in a shiny sports car, wearing beautifully tailored clothes, my hair expertly coiffed, and with long perfectly manicured fingernails. I want to drive up in a station wagon that has mud on the wheels from taking the kids to scout camp. I want there to be a smudge of peanut butter on my shirt from making sandwiches for a sick neighbors children. I want to be there with a little dirt under my fingernails from helping to weed someone's garden. I want to be there with children's sticky kisses on my cheeks and the tears of a friend on my shoulder. I want the Lord to know I was really here and that I really lived.

Jeff and Bobbie's Wedding

So I can hardly believe that my baby brother is married, but he married the neatest girl, who is so good for him! We had a great weekend in St George celebrating their special day with them. They were sealed in the St George Temple, and the sealer actually used to be our Stake President in Orangeville, President Arnold, so that was pretty special. They had their reception at the old Social Hall, which was really cute! My mom made all the outfits for the grandkids, so they could match.
This picture is actually at the Orangeville open house. All my kids with the bride and groom!

At the social hall in St George, there was this little stream outside, so of course all the kids flocked to it, since we were all dressed up. It made for some pretty cute pictures and no one fell in, which was good.

Grandma holding Cambree. She is just too cute!

This is our father daughter dance. My dad has 4 daughters, so it was a group dance. I have the greatest family in the whole world, and we have so much fun together!

Aubree and Macie (my niece) holding up the groom. Good thing, cuz those groomsmen might drop him!

Me and my (big) little brother.

We are so happy for Jeff and Bobbie, and always glad to welcome a new sister!
