Trevor & Logan

We've been really excited for Logan and Trevor, and we'd been looking forward to celebrating them.  Chase loves Logan, which is super cute.

Chase likes to find Jonne and hang out with her

TA DA!

A quick wenus check

The wedding was at the Reno temple in the morning, and then there was a delicious luncheon after it.  The reception was later that night in Fallon at Logan's parents' house.  

It was beautiful

Chase was excited when Annie arrived

Chase loved all the music and dancing, and he was pretty much in non-stop Chase mode.

And sparklers were fun too!

Congratulations Trevor & Logan!  As Marcus says, you completed the in-law trifecta. <3 p="">

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.

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!

Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat

Marcus and I went to see my cousin Shelby in the Draper Arts Council's production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.  It was so much fun!  Shelby is amazing at everything she does, and the entire show was fantastic.  We had a blast, and I promise no one sang along too loudly :)

They had a camel as part of the show, which was awesome!

I love this show so much.

Thanksgiving

Sadly I don't have many pictures from Thanksgiving.  We went to breakfast at Annie and Rea's house with Amy, Randy, their two boys, Margaret, my parents, Mimi, GDaddy, and Trevor.  And we had Thanksgiving dinner back at the Hardy Bungalow with Marcus' family, both sets of his grandparents, and our friend from NY Matthew.  All the food and company was wonderful.  We were grateful to spend the day with so much family!

Here are my four pictures from breakfast:

Chase liked to play next to the bigger boys

Happy Thanksgiving!

Brian ♥ Courtney : Reception

The reception was at The Wright House in Mesa.  It's a gorgeous location!  And the tables and decorations were beautiful.  Plus the weather was nice -- seriously, an awesome day for a wedding!

Chase was still a little annoyed, but he let us put a bowtie on him :)

Little turd boy... playing near the water... with that devious smile

Chase just wanted to run and splash in the fountains...

Page girls!

This is a favorite.

Pretending to behave

More snacks.  Always more snacks.

Beautiful centerpieces

And then blowing out the candles

It was a really fun reception.  Lots of family, friends, and people from the Bethany Home Ward -- it was seriously a huge Arizona reunion :)  Even Marcus ran into people he knew, beyond our family!  The food was delicious, and Chase was still at at least 500% energy level.  He would dance to the music and wander around the tables.  At least he's nice and happy, right?

And it finally crashed.

Congratulations Brian and Courtney!
