Jordan's Wedding

They're married!

 My little brother Jordan was married on March 9th 2012 in the Salt Lake Temple. I couldn't be happier for him and his beautiful new wife. Jordan and i have always been very close. Playing as little kids, it was always Jordan and I. We would build forts out of blankets in the living room, watch our favorite movies, dance on our beds to the safety kids, make hats out of buckets and parade around the house, make musical instruments out of paper plates and buckets, and write songs (and believe me, they would have topped the charts :-)) When we were REALLY little we shared a room and liked to sneak out of our beds to watch TV with our parents from the hall so they couldn't see us. We have lots of pictures of Jordan and i fast asleep on the floor in the hall.

 Jordan has always been my best friend. Even as we got older and changed, and maybe didn't do everything together anymore, we have always had a connection. Jordan has always been able to read me like a book. He always knew when i was sad, or upset. Usually if that was the case, he wouldn't even say anything to me, just sit by me and put his arm around me, or rub my feet. Side note - Jordan gives awesome foot rubs :-) Another thing i love about Jordan is that he makes me laugh! And not just me, he has a talent. He is a very happy person and i will always be grateful that he was chosen to be my brother here. He has been a huge blessing to me, and i can't help but wonder at how different i would be now had he not been in my life.

One of the great things about Jordan is, that while i think he and i were best friends growing up, all of my siblings would probably tell you the same thing. He wasn't just a friend to everyone, he made everyone feel like they were his favorite. As we got older Jordan and I became even better friends with our roadtrip to Disneyland. I'll spare the dozens of hilarious stories and memories for now, but we had an amazing time. Its hard to describe what i'm feeling, being so sad and so happy at the same time, but i just wanted to share how awesome my brother is! And share some fun pictures of his wedding day..

Love this picture!

His favorite sisters :-)

Isn't she beautiful!?

 Okay, i can't go without mentioning Chelsey :-) My favorite memory of Chelsey was the first time she came over and spent some time with our family. This was either right before or right after she and Jordan graduated. We were playing rock band, and the window just next to her was open. A huge moth just happened to fly in, and when she saw it, jumped up, screaming waving her hands around in the air. Haha! None of us knew how terrified she was of bugs until thent. It was hilarious! When Jordan tells this story, he says he saw it all in slow motion...the moth flying in, him thinking - NOOOOOOO! :-) I love my new sister in law!!!! I can't wait to go camping with her ;)

Gorgeous!
