Farewell...

 (Some of the people who came to hear him speak)

So over Memorial weekend I went home to San Diego for my little brother's Mission Farewell. I was so excited to go back to the best place on earth :) The weather was perfection, and I loved seeing my family and friends. My brother did an amazing job on his farewell talk, it was so sweet, &genuine. He will make a great missionary. Later that day we had an open house for people to come over for some food and to say bye to Alex and mingle with friends and family. I had way too much fun with everyone!

So PROUD :)

 Trevor "loves" getting his picture taken, too bad he married me then! haha ;)
 Attempt Two

Cheesy but were getting closer :) haha

One of my big broferssss :) Ben

So Happy to be with this Girl :)
 We were just getting started on our craziness for the day....

After eating a lot of yummy food at the open house, and after eating a lot of this...
 We ended up doing a photo shoot in the bathroom with some, um Granny Panties....


YUP, Jamie and me kind of have too much fun doing nothing together, haha.

  6. Thanks for the comment! You are so beautiful! And I am glad to know there are other yummy things to eat at Panera bread besides their bagels! I remember having to say goodbye to my brothers when they both left for missions! Your wedding photos are beautiful by the way!

  8. Note the proximity of Sarah and Alex's hands; as if one or both are debating as to whether or not they might formally combine. In my bachelor days we called this the "fly-by". The technique involves gently gracing the back of another's hand in attempt to ascertain therefrom the potential reception of the more aggressive act of actually holding hands. This technique can be performed while standing or sitting but is preferably reserved for those times when the recipient of your gestures will necessarily remain by your side for an extended amount of time (such as during a movie or while driving). Ah yes; many a hand has succumbed to an extended, interlocking embrace thanks to this subtle technique.
