After reading Hailey's post, I decided it was high time I blogged about my own brothers wedding, and my visit to Emilee's house!

I will start with the wedding.

Basically, my brother has REALLY good looking friends. They are not only good looking, but they are the funniest boys I've ever met. Fortunately 7 of them all decided to come out East to be there for the wedding dinner, ceremony, and reception. This means I got to spend 3 days hanging out with them, watching movies with them, eating with them, and drooling over them. I'm in LOVE. With all of them.

Just sayin, if any of you gals want some hook-ups next year, I'll just tell my bro to set you up because THEY ARE ALL SINGLE. ha ha.

Okay, anyways. On to the wedding. It was beautiful. I got to make two movies for them! One was a video recap of their love story, and another was a picture slideshow. So it was cool to show them the first one at their wedding dinner.

The reception that night was a little corny. They had it in their stake center, so it was obviously a cultural hall wedding. BUT Laura's parents are freaking loaded so they spent ALL of their money on the food. WHICH WAS THE BEST FOOD I'VE EVER EATEN.

We danced, and ate, and I tried not to think about where they were going when they drove away from the reception. HA "SSSSSSSSSS".

Anyways. That was that. We're having a reception for them in my backyard this Saturday, so I'll take pictures of that.

P.S. I had to wear the worst bridesmaid dress ever that I hated, but strangely everyone else kinda liked.

So Saturday morning, Em, my sister, her sister, and her sisters friends went to NY.

We:
1. biked around central park
2. ate at like 8 various locations throughout the city
3. shopped throughout the city
4. went to Brooklyn, went to time square, did everything a tourist should do when they visit the city.
5. I met up with one of my friends that is living in NY and got lost in the BRONX all by myself trying to find her. It was scary, but I made friends with a black security guard just to be safe.

For the next 4 days after that, Emilee and I had an absolute blast together. Her family is SO AWESOME. Her parents are hilarious, and her little sister Natalie is the cutest thing in the world. It was weird, because our families clicked so well together. Needless to say, when I had to leave on Wednesday I REALLY didn't want to go home.

Life in St. George is great! I'm training for the marathon right now, so I am not having sweets until October 1st. It is freaking hard.

I love you all! We're more than half way there!
