The Wedding

I traveled to Southern Oregon to enjoy family, phenomenal food (the scale told me so), and most importantly the sealing (marriage) of my cousin, Ian and his sweet wife, Ashleigh in the Medford, Oregon Temple. It was a lovely event.
I went sans children so it was a big party for me! Thank you, Babe for playing Mr. Mom for three days.

Mr. and Mrs. Ian Cropper

My sweet Mommy and Dad.

My sissy Sabina, Brother Kye, Dad and Mom.


This is Roger, my cousin Taylor and Anne's little boy. I sure wish he would have let me take him home with me though. Isn't he a beauty?!
Thank you for letting me stay at the blue house, Anne and Tay. Anne even put fresh flowers which color coordinated with the throw pillow on the chair. I love her eye for detail!

Jack, Eliza, and Simon. Again, my cousin's beautiful children.

This is a random few of me and Sabina. There is a entire series of candids...but these two were my favs. Look at Bina's facial expression while I am walking toward Kye (who is taking the pics) to see if the auto focus is working.

I don't have any idea what is going on in this one...
And can I also add that Sabina is a boy magnet? Can you say: Curvy!? And beautiful with personality and brains to boot.

Rogie and Anne

Eliza and Aunt Sally (aka: my cousin, Sara)

Drum roll please...
Can you believe this cake?!?! Thank you, Taylor the chef, baker, all things food extraordinaire for this gorgeous creation!
The icing on the cake (pun intended) is that every layer was a DELECTABLE DELIGHT!

This beast weighed 55 pounds and took three days to create!


As you can see it was a delightful weekend getaway!
