Kenny's Wedding Today
My little brother, Kenny, is getting married today - in a half an hour actually and I am at home on the couch. I can't get over how weird that feels. Weird may not be the right word because I've already shed a few tears, but I am not sad. I AM sad that I can't share in this most important day for him (almost) but mostly I am just thinking of my brother and feeling all of the love that I have for him on this exciting day for him. I say almost because he isn't getting sealed until Tuesday (they are just jumping through visa hoops). He is marrying a darling girl from Brazil named Jamile who will be leaving her world behind when her visa comes through. So his getting married down there is a small sacrifice when you compare the two. I am excited to meet her and have her be a part of our family. Bringing two worlds together into one takes a lot of adjusting - I don't envy the challenge that is ahead for them, but from what I've heard and observed they both have what it takes to make the other person their best - and most of all they are, of course, totally in love.

Lagoon Day
Daddy's princess on her pony.
Gingerbread House
The kids put this together in Bear Lake for the Jenkins Annual Snowmobile trip. Our poor kids...when we unloaded the car of our suitcases Lauren asked,"Do we live HERE now?"
Where's the fire?
Jon's dad tried to change the fire alarm but with it linked to the security system the fire department was automatically contacted. So after five minutes of obnoxiously loud alarms going off the truck showed up. Oops
Date with Daddy!
Jon took Lauren to Hollywood Connection for some one on one time together. It was a hit. :)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY HANDSOME
September 17th 1978
2/27/08 Lately L. has been insisting that I call her Cinderella. Sometimes I can hear her upstairs call for CINDERELLA. in a mean "step sister" tone, then in a sweet voice will answer, "I'm coming." She failed to pick up her toys when I asked, so I tried her new name and it worked wonders.
2/29/08 So L. is watching her old favorite and after Dory explains to Marlon that memory loss runs in her family, Lauren says, "It runs in my family too, Dory."

Story came to play
These three happy girls just finished spinning in Daddy's chair. What kid doesn't LOVE that? When Story's mom came to pick her up she gave me the door prize she'd won. It was a full hour massage at a spa in town. It was HEAVENLY! Thanks Brooke.
L"s Nursery Teacher and friend Lesley
Sunday doesn't come fast enough for L. to go with her teacher to Nursery. She will scout her out in S.M. and wave to her the rest of the meeting. She loves her.

AMEN! nuf said.
my sentiments exactly. I couldn't get him out of my mind all day Saturday and again today. I am sad that I didn't get a chance to go with mom to the temple today. She is going to do a sealing session around the same time Kenny and Jamile will be in the temple.
We better have a big celebration when they get back or it just won't feel like he's married!
Hey.... Thanks for the note. I like showing up on some one elses blog. haha. It makes me feels important. You were all in my mind as well... I felt happy to know that I had so much support even though no one was around to say so. I felt the support. that is what counts.
Well, I know that everyone was thinking of Kenny and Jamile on their "hour of the wedding" because we all called each other to make sure everyone knew the time. Thanks Becky for posting this. We love you Kenny & Jamile. Congratulations!
