Long time no Post

Warning this will be a blog overload

So much has happened since the last time I posted. Zack and I have moved, almost finished a semester, had a brother get married, a sister and brother in law get sealed, got a new niece, and new callings. Oh and hosted Thanksgiving. First off the move. We are now living with Zack's parents in the play room. So far so good. It is nice not to have the stress of cooking and having to clean the house, (now if I could just get the energy to clean and organize our room). It will be a nice way to focus on school. I am cutting my hours at work in January so the move has perfect timing. Second my little brother got married October 17th. It was such a fun day. The wedding and reception was so David and Shany, they even had a wanted poster you could pose in. We are so excited to have Shany in our family, and think she is a great addition. They are so cute together. Then about a month later my little sister Jessi and her husband Mat were sealed. It was such a great day and we are so excited and happy for them. They were sealed in the same room that Zack and I were sealed in, so much fun! Jenelle and Chris got a new addition to their family, Hali Faith Parker. She is so sweet, I don't have any pictures of her, but I do have a picture of Charley and Zack playing when she spend the night while Jenelle was at the hospital. Hali is so cute and I can't wait to see her again, just have to get rid of the cough. Zack's little brother Mark also graduated from basic training last week. His mom and dad and Robert and Elizabeth went to his graduation and spent Thanksgiving with him. We are so happy for you Mark and hope that you are having a great time. While Zack's parents were gone we hosted Thanksgiving with my family. I don't know if I can really say that I hosted though, since my mom made the turkey. It was such a nice day to spend with family just hanging out. Since the move we also got new callings Zack and I are the men's and women's sports directors for our ward. It should be fun! Well now we just have to finish the semester, about a week left, then I have a week and a half off work then Christmas, this year has flown by.

I love to see the Temple.





Oh we also went to a Murder Mystery/Masquerade Ball at my Aunt Laura's it was so much fun!
I love my mask!

My stud, willing, or maybe not so willingly striking a pose.


This is what happens when you move and pack the kitchen first. No cups!


David and Shany's wedding, the Honeymoon Dance. Zack and David enjoying a nice dance :)

Mother Son Dance


The Honeymoon Basket, one of our traditions. A sibling gift, we put the basket in the car instead of decorating their car. Then they can leave right away and have all the basic necessities for the honeymoon.


A pre-wedding day photo. Shany's got David right where she wants him already.


The wanted sign at the reception. Ben and Jeb.
