DInner and Reception

 The Dinner and the reception were so beautiful!  They had them both at the Castle in Layton.  The grounds were beautiful and had a big pond and waterfall.  It was hard to get pictures of the kids, because they were all running around having a great time trying to get wet.

The four Jenkins granddaughters

 My handsome boy.  I didn't get one of all the grandsons... they were having too much fun.

 

Abigail was in love with everything at the reception.  She thought it was all so beautiful, and she kept posing for pictures

 The best parents a girl could ask for

And the couple of the hour

So happy Brent and Shelley found one another!  we love our new sister/aunt, and it's fun seeing Brent so giddy in love.  

Brent and Shelley's wedding!

What a beautiful couple! 

Coming out of the Temple (Bountiful) for the first time as man and wife

I think Brent looks just like Grandpa Donald in this picture :)

My favorite one of them

Shelley's dress, hair, and bouquet were all so pretty

Me and my love

For some reason, I didn't get a picture of Luke and Lisa together, I would have titled it.... My second oldest brother with lovely wife :)  So this picture will have to do.  It seems as though they may be having a deep discussion.         We are all so happy for the newest Jenkins family.  Congrats Brent and Shelley!

Also... you'll notice we didn't have our kids at the temple.  Well, it's because Ben's parents are the best.  They took them during the ceremony and the dinner, then brought them to the reception.   Sharla even painted the girls toenails to match their dresses, and covered up Carly's huge bruise on her forehead with a bit of makeup!   I love them, they are so wonderful!

 A few random pictures to get out of the way before I post Brent and Shelley's wedding pics... because I know that everybody wants to see those :)

 

 This was a few weeks ago when it had been hot, then got cold again.  The girls were still determined to play outside in their summer clothes.  After a few minutes, they came back in for shoes, then back in for jackets, then back in for good for some hot chocolate. 

 

 Hailey still thinks that she's small enough to have a bath in the sink.  She barely fits in there, but she loves it so much, and is so happy that I let her in.  It's actually a little convinient, because she always manages to get her breakfast everywhere, so I stick her in every morning while I'm  making Luke's lunch.

 Luke has been doing a 4-h group this school year called, Lego robotics.  Obviously we all know Luke LOVES legos, so he also thought the class was awesome.  He did it with a friend, and he would build a robot according to that week's plan and then program it on the computer to do different things.  Each week the challenge got harder and harder, but he always got it done.

 This was on  the last week and he was so excited to build whatever he wanted.

We don't get out to the movies that often... but we had heard the Avengers was pretty awesome at the IMAX 3d.  Jed and Shannon came along with us.  I loved it, but the 3d glasses gave me a headache by the end of the movie.

That is what's been going on the last little while.  We're so excited to have school out in a couple of weeks!  Can't wait for some summer fun!
