Making memories...a litle late

It feels like it has been forever since I worked on family history! I went to a Family History Conference in October and it was awesome! Then our scanner stopped working and my morning sickness started...that was fun. Now that I'm feeling a lot better and we bought a new printer/scanner, I'm ready to get back it! Though I haven't done a lot of research to report on, I did want to include a couple things.

I was looking through my wedding pictures a couple months ago and was reminded how bummed I was that my grandma was too sick that day to be able to attend any of the festivities. I was thinking how disappointed I was that I have no pictures of me on my wedding day with one of my favorite people. So a few weeks ago I surprised my grandma by showing up at her house with my wedding dress and told her we were taking pictures. She told me I was crazy, but she let me take pictures with her even though she said "I'm in my dungarees!"







My little brother Travis came with me too. He was in Paraguay when I got married, so he'd never seen me in my wedding dress either. We're such models, so we took a few pictures too.



He's married now too, so he was showing off his bling.

It may seem kind of silly or pointless to do this almost three years after my wedding, but I loved it. I know family can't always be together for every big event, but I'm so glad that I have these pictures now. She has been part of my life for some pretty huge events and I'm glad I got to include her a little more in this one. Even if it was a little late and I'm somewhere around 8 weeks pregnant in it :)

Also, who doesn't love putting her wedding dress on?
