Back to the state of road construction!

This was probably the most adventurous and memorable trips to Utah we will ever have.  Our friend Ryan Mullen got married to his sweetie Marissa and we were able to come out and be a part of their special day!  We originally planned on driving out on Wednesday after Woody got off work which he ended up doing but...alone.  I went drove back with my parents the Friday before so I could make it to Faith's bridal shower on Saturday and work more while I was there.  Thursday he threw Ryan a bachelor party and I had a girls night with my old co-workers from Wasatch.  It was a combined double baby shower for Amanda and Lyndsey and a going away party for Holly.  It was so good to see everyone!  Friday was the wedding and it couldn't have been a better day!  The weather was great, the people were great, everything went so well and there is a new Mullen family!  We are so happy for Ryan and Marissa!

Some of the handsome groomsmen!

 Me and the Best Man

The day after the wedding was super busy!  We woke up and went to the baptism of Brittney's boyfriend Travis.  It was AMAZING!  Woody gave the talk on the Holy Ghost, it was such a spiritual day for Travis and his family.  We are so proud of him and his decision to be baptized!  I left the baptism and sped up to Sandy to go to Lexi and Liam's baby shower!

Angie, Lexi, Chana, Liz, Me, and Laura!

I LOVE these girls and always enjoy getting together with them.  Wish more AK alumni could have made it.  It's so nice to still be friends with these girls after 5 years now!  Congrats Lexi and Jake on their baby boy! 

Right after that I sped back down to Provo for another baby shower for Amanda and Jack! So many baby boys coming into the world!
When Tiff and I were driving home from Amanda's shower I called Woody to see if he was done shooting with the boys yet.  He just picked up the phone and said, "Hey honey I accidentally shot an antelope and the sheriff's just pulled up so I'll call you back"  Um OKAY WHAT!?  I was kind of in shock!  Tiffany dropped me off and I walked inside and said, "mom, my husband may be going to jail tonight"  And sure enough...he did.  It was actually pretty humorous.  All of it besides the bail...that wasn't so humorous.  But Nephi, Roland, and Ang came and picked me up and we headed down to Spanish Fork to bail my antelope murderer out of jail.  It was quite unexpected to say the least. 

The next morning we woke up to this cute little hunting sticker on our car!  HAHA!  Well played friends, well played.  I just love this boy and his sense of adventure! Oh and for all you animal lovers.. although he was shooting 10 feet away to try to scare the antelope off, he shot a "perfect" shot right through the heart so there was no suffering.  Imagine trying to tell the officer it was an accident after that shot. :) Love him anyway!

We spent the whole following week in Utah so we could drive down to Hurricane for Ryan and Marissa's second reception.  We stayed in St. George with Roland and Angie and hung out with Brittney and Travis while we were there.  Fun times had by all!
