My cousin Wesley has now attended yet another wedding in spirit as the form of Flat Wesley while he serves his mission in Texas.

The first dance

Here is the reaction of tne newlyweds when they saw the car.

Where did Britian go???

Grace and Olivia helped clean up at the reception. What cute aprons they had.

Eli brother of Melissa had a ball but I'm sure he was glad to have it over so he could have his mom and dad's full attention back.

Grace and Oliver on the dance floor.

CONGRATS TO THE NEWLYWEDS!!

Meeting Parker and Silly Buck Family

My Cousin Brielle had Parker on Christmas Eve at 11:15 PM. I went up to Colorado Springs to meet him after Brielle and Jared moved here. I was so excited to meet Parker.

Since Oliver is little since that's what our family seems to have is little babies I thought we should compare sizes. Oliver is 8 months and Parker is a believe 2 weeks. I think Parker is going to be bigger than Oliver very soon. I guess that is what happens when you have a tall daddy.

Oliver is sporting this hansome mustache to show his mom that he wants to eat Mexican food not baby food.

What a silly sister I have. I sure love seeing her silly side and being with her great boys.

I had to add this cute picture of Oliver.

Christmas Morning

We had a great Christmas morning. It started out with Athena opening her sock full of toys.

Christmas was really enjoyable this year. We all met at my parents to enjoy Christmas morning with our family. Ken, William and I, Annie and Jared with their boys Joseph and Oliver, Carl and Stephanie with Rose and of course my parents. We were sad that Donna and Shane and girls and Ben and Jenni and girls missed out but we thought of them.

William, Oliver, and Rose are waiting to open presents. "We can't wait!"

Ken missed sitting on Santa's lap the night before so he had to sit on Carl's lap and tell him his wish list.

We opened socks. This was all Joseph could handle because he decided open presents was boring so he would go play on the computer while we opened presents. What a silly boy maybe next year when he is 4 he will be more into presents. We shall see.

Carl and Stephanie patiently waiting for their turn to open a present.

"What all the kids got us a new camera!? That is not what I was expecting. Now I have something to take pictures with when we go to Hawaii"

Ken found a great hat that my parents gave him. EAT MORE FAST FOOD

William did a great job handing out the presents this year. I think he enjoyed almost as much as his presents.

Oliver opening his present to get to the good stuff....the wrapping paper! Tasty!

William was excited to see a new hoodie and cold hard cash. Gotta love it when you find money in your pockets!

Ken's new real cowboy hat! Boy did he make out. Although I didn't get a picture I think the biggest surpise he had was when he opened up his new knives for hunting from William!
