Derek & Lindsey

Marcus' brother Derek got married a little over a week before Trevor and Logan got married.  Super busy summer - but so many fun events!

Derek and Lindsey were sealed in the Salt Lake Temple.

Lindsey & Derek

There was a luncheon after the sealing at the Hardy's church building.  

Chase loved hanging out with Ethan

The reception was later that night back at the church building.  It looked really nice.  Chase loved the centerpieces on the tables.

Oh, and he loved the bubbles.

Of course we tried to get one picture of the boys...  I don't know why we try.

Enjoying a PBJ and some wedding treats

Yep the centerpieces were fish bowls with fish.  Chase loved them so much that he got to take some fish home.  Sadly they've died, but long story short, we now have two other fish...

And Chase loved to get drinks to people.  He'd walk around asking what people want and then giving them more refills than they probably wanted :)

It was a beautiful day.  Congrats to the newest Mr. & Mrs. Hardy!

Ty's Birthday Party

We decided to do a big family birthday party for Ty the night before his first birthday.  We had a barbecue in the backyard with hot dogs and lots of sides.  Chase also helped pick out the type of cupcakes we made.  It was extra fun because our friends from NYC, the De Leons, were staying with us, so they were at the party too.

He was excited for his cupcake

Tasty

Chase picked out chocolate cupcakes with the funfetti frosting

Ty enjoyed making a mess

But then he wanted to be cleaned up

It was a fun birthday party.  It's nice living so much closer to family so we can have birthdays together.  Happy Birthday, Ty!

Hardys

And here are some more pictures from our time with the Hardys...

Marcus, Paden, and Mike went to a shooting range

More Cousin Time

Chase thought the guitar was a "Daddy Cello" and loved playing with Grandpa

He was also so soft and gentle petting the bird

Another comfy Ty nap

It is not easy to get a good picture of Chase and Ty together, even one of Chase alone is tricky

Ty meeting Luke

There were many matchbox tracks made with Grandpa throughout the week

Chase quickly figured out how to do it all by himself

Luke, the baby guard dog

Our Ty Guy

There were many Mario Kart and other Wii Sibling Game Nights

I love scrolling from the concentration in this picture to the next one

Kate reading with Chase

And almost everyone was roped into some Play-Doh time with Chase

Ty was able to meet a lot of family

Great-grandma Love

This picture was taken on the FIRST TRY! AMAZING!

Thanks for a fun trip in Utah!
