Valerie and Nathan Get Married

 My niece Valerie married Nathan Cunningham a few weeks ago, and life is so crazy that I haven't had time to put any pictures online. 

Congratulations!

Me, Oh My, Valesca turned 19 years old!

 My not so little girl turned 19 more than a week ago, and we have been so busy that I haven't had a chance to even think very much about it.  She decided that she wanted chocolate cheesecake this year, so I didn't have to make or decorate a fancy cake (whew!).

 The day after her birthday she was able to go to the temple to receive her endowment.  It was fun to be able to be there with her cousin who was getting married the following week.

 We also had quite a few family members who were able to be there with us.

Valesca is such a wonderful young women and I am so blessed to be her mom...love you Valesca!

I know who I am- Our YouTube video

Our whole family was able to participate in this miracle video a few months back. We invite you to watch it and to share it with others. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-U-I8U9EHAA  Remember, two of the kids were in the band, one was singing and dancing, the rest of us are in plain view several times.

Valerie's Bridal Shower

Helped give a bridal shower for my niece.  I was in charge of the invitations and I made chocolate wedding cakes on a stick.
