Holly's Wedding

John's sister, Holly, got married, and we got to go to Portland and be part of the wedding. The girls were the flower girls, and Jackson got to be the ring bearer. Great-Grandma Knippers sewed their dresses and his vest.

The wedding was really pretty. I wish I had more pictures of the bride and groom! I just got one good one of Holly and Laurel (my other SIL).

Too bad I can't have someone do my hair for me everyday. I could use some help with that. This is the hair that set off security at the airport. We flew home the day after the wedding, and apparently there were too many bobby pins in my hair. Just for trying to keep the hairdo an extra day, I had to get searched.

Wacky Hair Day

I hope it stayed in at least long enough to get to her class.

San Diego

A few days after we arrived in Pinetop, we got back in the car and drove to California for some playing on the beach with cousins and Grandpa.

Doesn't this picture have a nice background? Sorry if that's you in the shorts.

Retreats Rock

John and I went to Sedona in July for a "retreat" with his company. Those buildings down in the canyon make up the resort we got to stay in.

We went on a fun jeep tour, (even though it was pouring rain, and clouds were covering all the awesome views you're supposed to get on the tour!) We did see just a little of the red rock.

That afternoon there was nothing scheduled, so we went on a hike through the canyon.

John went up to the top of this rock. I get a little afraid of heights. I thought about going up, too. But then I thought about falling on my head. Then I thought I was high enough.
