What a busy week! We have had three weddings in one week. We flew into Texas on Aug. 11. On Thursday we went with Celeste to the Houston temple. Friday we hung out in Houston and took Izzy to the zoo for her first time. It was super HOT; but Izzy had a great time. She loved the petting zoo.
Izzy not sure if she should pet the animals or not. She loved the zoo.

Looking at the animals.
Washing her hands after the petting zoo. I had to post this so Grandma didn't freak out. Check out those legs!
Kathryn came with us to the zoo. Izzy had a fun time hanging out with Aunt Kat.
Izzy checking out the gift shop. Of course, she had to have a souvenir for her first trip to the zoo. She wanted this tiger, but it wouldn't fit in the luggage, so she settled for a stuff animal.

Saturday was the first wedding. Celeste married Brandon Sipherd in the Houston LDS temple. That night they had a reception in Bay City. Everything was beautiful. We had a great time hanging out with family and friends.
Somehow we didn't take any pictures with our camera from the wedding. I guess we just assumed we would get them from other people.
Izzy with her great grandfather.
Izzy with my cousin's kids; Kyleigh, Madison, Macey, Zach, and Jace. Izzy had so much fun playing with them.
Izzy and her Grandma. She loved playing with her Grandma.

On Sunday we went with Suzette and Jon to Austin. We got to see their new house during the remodeling stage. We went swimming at Hamilton Pools, went shopping, and out to eat at many great places.
The pool was beautiful. There was nice shade and the water was a perfect temperature.

Izzy playing with Daddy. She loves the water and Daddy too!
Suzette, Izzy, and I enjoying the water.
Tuesday we flew to DC. On Wednesday the boys went golfing and the girls got manis and pedis. Thursday was Christina and Danny's wedding. They both looked great and the reception/dinner was gorgeous.
Mr. & Mrs. Bajza. Such a great couple.
Catherine, Christina and me at the reception. It was beautiful.
Cat, Abi, Me, and Izzy. I love their matching dresses and bows.
Their reception was near the water and it was beautiful.
Mike and I decided to get a picture too!
Friday we hung out, rested, and had a bbq.
The cute couple, Guillaume and Dana, the night before their wedding.
My friend, Carrie, lives in the Baltimore area so she came to visit. It was so great to see her.
Izzy with her Uncle Matt.
Mommy and Izzy.
Izzy doing what she does best.....EATING!

Unfortunately that night Mike and I both got sick and were throwing up all night. We barely made it to the wedding the next morning, but we did not get any pictures. The sealing was beautiful and we were glad to be there for it. The luncheon was nice too. Luckily it was just a short bug and we were better by Sunday. That pretty much sums up our crazy week!!

Wow! Such an exciting week. Congratulations to all your siblings. That is awesome. And sorry to hear about your sickness? Was it food poisoning? Glad you were able to make it to the wedding!
