Two weddings and a funeral

Isn't my title a title of a movie? I think it is. Or maybe its three weddings and a funeral...

So the last couple of weeks have been pretty busy. Saturday the 13th was my niece Brittanie's funeral as well as Jonny's wedding (Ben's brother). The girl cousins sang at the funeral and had to practice so my day started at 7:30 and was nonstop until 10:30. It was pretty exhausting but obviously well worth it since I wouldn't have missed either events for anything. 

I didn't take any pictures at the funeral (I think thats fitting) but here are some of the wedding...

I know this is blurry...sorry

So after the reception was over Ben and I drove back to my house hoping for some peace, quiet, and relaxation. However, its always a party at my house and this is what we came home to...

A bunch of my cousins! They decided to have a cousin's night in honor of Brittanie and my house was the place they chose. P.S. like the snowman wreath that is still above the mantle?

The rest of that week I stayed up north for spring break while Ben went back to Cedar to work. It was so nice to be able to spend a good chunk of time with my family.  I got to play with my nephew Roman a lot and he loved me! That was a boost to my confidence cause it seems like no little kids like me lately. He is so dang cute and so dang smart. He is not even two yet and can practically speak in full sentences and repeat any word you ask him to. 

I also was able to go shopping, get a pedicure, and have three cavities redone.  I know that last one doesn't sound fun but its a lot more fun when its free cause your dad is a dentist ;)

When the weekend came it was time for another wedding! My niece Katie got married and I was able to go to the endowment and sealing. It was so cool because Katie and I were great friends growing up. It was also extra special for Ben and I because they were sealed by the same guy that we were! We can't remember a thing about our own sealing cause we were so pumped up so it was nice to hear what he said at theirs.  

During the sealing he talked a lot about family members who had passed on being with us that day.  It seemed he knew that we had all just lost a loved one.  It made me bawl because I was sitting next to my sister Vickie (Brittanie's mom) and holding her hand the whole time.  But it was comforting at the same time. 

Well enough talking... here are some pictures of that day...

That's all for now. Sorry it was so long!
