LET LOVE RULE

(warning: long post with many pictures...i apologize for cramming it all into one posting...and i want to apologize to kjrst for stealing all of her good ideas)

just a short week ago the dyers gathered at a cabin (yes, all of us in one house!)in midway, utah to celebrate the forever love of keith and jenny.


union finalized at the Mount Timpanogos Temple February 21, 2009


there was some serious relaxing and lots of Ben's cookies...

here's a little recap on the weekend events:

thursday the kids spent most of the day in the copious snow outside the cabin

the next day was snow day for the big kids at Park City

(thanks brandon, for taking one for the team so i could hit the slopes! you are awesome and i love you!)

a little pre-wedding dinner at the Market Street Broiler Grill. the entertainment included embarrassing moments shared in speeches, family slide shows, and a little song by Duff and Andrew. there were so many of Keith's most loved people in attendance i can't possibly picture them all. here's a few...

the big day...at the temple

oh, the day didn't end there...a beautiful ring ceremony at heritage gardens~gorgeous!

keith was a 6 year old boy on christmas morning!!

regardless of what sophie was texting to her friends...this reception was OFF THE HOOK!

we welcome jenny into the "dyer sisterhood" and rejoice for our keeber who found his tenderr roni.

Let LOVE Rule!

(thanks kjrst for the photos. i don't enjoy piracy but in light of the fact that i had my hands quite full the whole weekend, i did not take one picture myself. i couldn't have taken pictures a quarter this awesome anyway. to see more of her amazing talent please click here )

bliss

baby bliss...waking up every 1, 2, 3, (maybe) 4 hours to feed rhett is tiring. but i also enjoy it. i really do smell him and cuddle him (most of the time) when the rest of the house is asleep. two nights ago he actually slept from 11:30 to 6:30. i am convinced it was because he wanted me to be able to make it to church. thank you, rhett. it was a gift to be back at church with our family and hear my husband's sweet testimony all about how much he loved me and US. life is bliss.

here's rhett at one month old. is he dyer or parker? you decide...

macrae spent the first 2 weeks of rhett's life sleeping less than me. poor boy, his life was a little off balance and he could not sleep. he seriously got out of bed over and over and cried on his floor begging to get out of his room. until finally, one night brandon put the crib matress on the floor and let him sleep there. now, he's back to taking a nap every day AND going to bed like a normal toddler. life is getting better for all of us. just a few pictures from brandon's birthday party.

if someone had told me 10 years ago how sweet (literally) my life would be today i would not have been able to imagine it could be true.

now i'm going to feed rhett and go to bed. i might be up every 2-3 hours tonight. but even if i am, life will still be good tomorrow.
