weddings, napoleon, pizza benders, maddox, cabins, rodeos, cars, jobs, and laughs

it has been quite the eventful week... as you can probably tell by my title!

i went up north for my cousin's wedding and it was so fun! my family is the best ever! let me tell you why!

this is taryn and austin. a briefly confusing story about them is... taryn is my dad's sister's adopted daughter. austin is my dad's brother's son's wife's brother. my family hooked austin and taryn up and now they're in love and married! interesting story correct? ha

a lot of preparations went into this wedding. every family wedding, my mom is always in charge of the entertainment for the dinner or breakfast. for this wedding, me and all my aunts, uncles, cousins and other family learned the napoleon dynamite dance and performed it in front of everyone. and we did it at the reception too! ha we're cool!

it's tradition that my whole family goes to italian village to get pizza benders at 10:55pm (they close at 11pm)

this is maddox! it has the BEST rolls in the world! if you ever get the chance, GO! it's in brigham city. you will not regret it! we always love going to maddox! this trip was a very good one though because they serve kids meals on a frisbee. so after we ate, my family went and played frisbee in the parking lot where my uncle dove for it and biffed it and scuffed his head on the cement... there's a blood stain on the ground haha it was hilarious!

i have been carless since May 23, 2011. after a month of searching, and having my mommy and daddy take/pick me up from work, i finally got my cute mazda 3 on June 30,2011! i love it with all my heart!

i drove it to orem and met alexa there where we went job hunting. we thought it would be fun to fill out 20 applications... it's not! we hated it!

this is a moose we found while riding the fourwheelers at my cousin's cabin! jill went walked up to it 10ft. away to get a good picture. good thing the moose didn't feel like attacking, because they're pretty fast and could outrun our fourwheeler.

this was my first rodeo! i was really ticked i didn't bring my cowboy boots and hat.

me, jill, dad, mom, aubrianne, curt and carol anne went on an insane hike up a mountain!

(in the picture is curt, jill, aubrianne, and me)

me, mom and curt were the only ones who made it to the tip top! i was proud of my accomplisment!

well, if you made it to this point i congratulate you! this was a longin.

good day!

yours truely, jessica
