Mr. and Mrs. Brandley

My niece got hitched!

My sweet little niece, Amberlee, got married! This special celebration, back in May, was a two day event. These kids now-a-days do things backwards. The first day was the reception, and the second day was the wedding. I guess this is becoming more common to do it this way. I don't think I could do it, I need things in order, I guess I'm a weirdo. But even tho it was backwards, it was a beautiful couple of days. I do love weddings!

Family: where Life begins and Love never ends.

Oh, how I LOVE my Mom and Dad. I am so lucky to have them in my life.

Me and my Best Buddy.

What would I do without my family?

I don't know, but it wouldn't be pretty.

This is my aunt Connie and cousin Tommy. They both hold a special place in my heart. I love them soooo much!Since we were little, we've done so much together. There's been many camping trips and memorial day picnics together, and best of all, lots of hugs! You know how some people are good huggers, well, my aunt is the best hugger! And, when I was a little girl, I had this stuffed bunny, named "Bunny" (I know, real original) that went EVERYWHERE with me. That bunny was my most favorite doll ever. To this day, I still have it. It was from my Aunt Connie. She is one of my most favorite people ever.

This is what happens when you leave your camera alone and my brother Mike gets a hold of it......

The proud momma and poppa!

The daddy-daughter dance was probably the most touching thing all night. My sister Becky has 4 kids, and Amberlee is the only girl.....so as you can imagine, she is defiantly a daddy's girl. It was just so cute, it almost made me cry!

My crazy family.....

The next day was the Wedding/ Sealing day. The two love birds got sealed in the Bountiful temple, which is one of my favorite temples. That is where Ryan and I received our endowments.

My new dress! I'll take any excuse to buy a new dress, a wedding is the BEST excuse there is! Yay!
