ROAD TRIP

We headed up to Utah this past weekend for my friend Jana's wedding. We had such a fun time sharing her special day with her. I have known Jana since elementary school, and were in all the same primary classes for as long as I can remember. It was neat to see her so happy!

One of the best parts of going was seeing all of Shane's family and so many friends that we don't get to see very often! I am so glad Tylie got to see everyone of her cousins! We are so blessed to have such great friends and family! So the weekend goes as follows...
WARNING: THIS IS GOING TO BE A LONG ONE, I CAN JUST FEEL IT!

We headed out Thursday evening to Vegas and stayed with Jana and Joe. We got in so late, but got to hang out with Zoey and Livi in the morning! Thanks for letting us come so late and crash with you! We definitely need to hang out more!


We drove the rest of the trip on Friday and got to Luke and Traci's Friday evening, they were so nice to let us come and stay all weekend. Traci even watched Tylie on Saturday while we were at the temple, she was also watching 3 other kids so thank you so much for everything! Saturday was all about the wedding. Jana looked gorgeous!



I am so glad we got to spend a lot of time with Rachel and Tanner on Saturday. It was so good to see them and their cute boys!


Just waiting for newlyweds to come out of the temple.


Hooray! We are so happy for you guys!


Lucas and Tylie flirting yet again...but so cute!


Family picture at Jana's reception.


Scott and Jana had their reception at Thanksgiving point, it was so pretty.


It even ended up raining but it was still a perfect day!


Sunday was so fun. We went to church with Luke, Traci and Bailee and in the afternoon Morgan and Jil's whole crew came over. Traci made an awesome dinner and we had a great time just catching up and hanging out with all the cousins!


Always a blast when the cousins get together!


Now wonder why Tylie is a Daddy's girl. Popsicles can always win a girls heart over.


Just hanging


So glad we got to meet up with Andy, Tiff and Chloe! We had such a good visit with them, even though it wasn't long enough we loved seeing you guys and can't wait for you to come to California...no pressure!


Love this pic.

Chole is so sweet and will be such an amazing big sister someday!



One of the highlights was getting to spend Monday morning with Bryant (Shane's cousin) and Mindy. The last time the four of us were together was two years ago when we lived next door to each other. They were the best neighbors we ever had. (we haven't had many but you will always be our favs!) They are expecting their first and she should be here in two weeks! You guys will be awesome parents we can't wait to hear when she arrives! Thanks for hanging out with us and making us pancakes. Love you guys.
Of course we couldn't leave without going to Harmons and visiting Kathy a.k.a grandma #3
On our way to St. George we stopped to see Nicole, Sahara, Canyon and River in Cedar City. River is so smiley and cute! These two are just a month apart.


Cousins are the best!
And our last stop St. George. Of course I got a pic of everyone but Brooks and Brayden. This is Tylie with Brea just chillin while everyone was out getting dinner. Tylie has a new obsession...Jolynn, she absolutely loves her! It was so funny. She was screaming and laughing all night.
THE END. All of you that lasted this long are probably so over it. Sorry! It was a long one, but I warned you!

So, I am ticked that you didn't let us know you were going to be here so we could have done something... You have got some real explaining to do! And to make you feel worse, Val was even here from AZ that weekend! Take that!

Bree said...

That is so fun you got to go to Jana's wedding, she looked gorgeous! You have the cutest little family, has Tylie ever worn an outfit twice!? Her announcement is still on my fridge and all of my friends love it and comment on it all the time!

Hey lil Chels! I am glad you found my blog...I just found a bunch of people from Valencia too! My fam just moved from Boise, Idaho to West Paducah, KY a couple weeks ago. I was only there a day though before flying to VA for Terrence's homecoming on the 20th. We are still in VA until the 1st.

I should know Jana, shouldn't I??? I think her maiden name started with a W, has a sister Janae and brother Chuck???

The Chong Ohana said...

You guys are so cute. What an adorable baby. Wow, thanks for finding us. I've been able to see so many other familiar faces now on blogs because of you. Hope all is well and please tell your parents and sister hello. And kick Jeff in the butt for me.
