A little while...

So, we really don't have a great excuse for not updating everyone on our lives! I guess we just forgot to write for a while. So first of all, I want to start out by telling everyone that one of my dearest friends was married on August 30, 2008. Her name is Brittany Anne Olsen Nielsen, and she is just fabulous! I was lucky enough to be one of her bridesmaids, and I had the best time the entire day! I was able to attend the temple ceremony, luncheon, and reception. It was a beautiful and memorable day. Brittany and Chase make a wonderful couple and it made me happy to see how in love they are with each other! Yah Britt, Congratulations!

Shortly before Britt's wedding, we took a trip to Newport. It was really fun! It's always nice to revisit favorite places. We mostly just hung out at our favorite beach in Laguna, but we also went to Disneyland and took a few walks on Balboa. It was nice to get away for a little while before school starts and our lives become outrageously busy once again.



Arriving at Disneyland! It was so much fun :)

At the Newport Temple, one of my favorite temples. It is so beautiful


So this is going to be the longest post ever, but I am also going to include pictures of other events that occured spontaneously over the summer.



The picnic on Jason's birthday, right after black-light miniature golfing and right before his surprise party! He had no clue.. I totally got him :)


Jason's surprise party! It was so fun! Thanks again to everyone who came and made it such a hit.
