Wedding Dress Shopping & Tree Chopping

After Larsen came and met us in Idaho Falls on our spring break, Jill had another week of school. Then she went to visit Larsen one more time before she came home for the summer. She had decided on her way down that she was going to tell him that she loved him. As soon as she walked in, Larsen said, "Jill Nunn, I love you." Anyway, they pretty much decided to get married.

So Jill came home and started planning her wedding.
She searched online for wedding dresses and found a store that she loved. She made an appointment, and Lucy, Jill and I drove to Utah for the appointment.

We went to the greatest little shop, Elizabeth Copper Designs, with all of these beautiful dresses. Jill's friend Emmalee Dubois, Larsen's sister Lindsey, and Lucy and I were the consultants. The dresses are all modest and beautiful. We ordered one. That was easy.

While we were gone, Austin decided he was going to cut down a row of huge dead trees in our yard. So Grandpa Buck came over with his chainsaw, and Austin, Grandpa, Hanna and Carly chopped down about 6 huge trees. They would tie a rope to the Yukon the pull the tree while they sawed it. I think it's good I wasn't there. I would have been a little nervous that someone would die. Carly was sending us videos and pictures telling us that "they had a risky take."

Carly's 11th Birthday

Carly had two parts to her 11th birthday.

Two days before her birthday we were in Idaho Falls for spring break. So we had some dessert and she opened her gift from Jill and from Grandma Carol. We also played a how well do you know Carly game. 

Her birthday was on Monday so we grilled steaks for dinner. 

Lucy gave her tickets to 3 episodes of Heartland. Thanks, Lucy.

Spring Break Trip to Meet the Boy

We decided to go to Idaho Falls for spring break. We had lots of good reasons - visit our Idaho family, look for a grad dress for Hanna, and meet Jill's friend, Larsen Perkins.

Our first stop was to go to Pocatello to watch Creighton John's high school baseball game. It was fun to watch him, but it was soooo windy. 

Then Austin called Les & Hollis and invited them to come to dinner in Pocatello. We went to our favorite place - Texas Roadhouse. 

We also went to every single story in Idaho Falls to see if Hanna could find a grad dress. She ordered one from China, and it is okay, but we were looking to see if there was something she loved. After going to Dillard's three times, Hanna did buy one.

We also went to watch Tyce play baseball in Idaho Falls.
And we met Larsen. And Carly quizzed him endlessly. So Larsen....
And he passed our test. He handled the interrogation like a champ.

We also had an early birthday celebration for Carly.

Easter

Easter Sunday

Missing Jill

Austin and I spoke in Sacrament Meeting

New Easter dresses - bought online - tears forcing everyone to wear them - no one has ever worn them again - it was a good thought
