A double special day

Happy Birthday Susan!

Today is Susan's "thirty something" birthday making it a very special day. I took a picture of she and her hubby at the temple this morning as they waited for the bride and groom to exit. Eric's cousin and my niece, Lisa married her Kenley this morning for time and all eternity making it a "double" special day.

It was a beautiful ceremony and Lisa and Kenley were all smiles as they exited the temple to the claps of their friends and family.




They are such a lovely couple who are so kind and gentle with one another. It will be a wonderful life.

The Ray family gather around for a group shot.

There siblings and cousins gathered to greet them - Logan, Daniel, and Rachel. Logan had journied west from Leavenworth, Kansas with his parents.

Mark is very delighted with new baby girl, Emma.

Grandma Ina and Grandpa Dewey Ray were in attendance. Emma is their "13th" great grandchild.

Ashley and Grandpa Donald smile for the occasion.

In honor of the two siblings currently serving as missionaries, Daniel wore a missionary name badge.


Bunker cousins Gary, Logan, and Brittany traveled from Provo for the festivities. Brittany, who do you think will be the next Ostler cousin to marry? ;)


More cousins - Jenny, Pam, and Simone. Pam and Simone drove in from Albuquerque.


Lisa's 2nd cousins, Heather and Julianna were also at the temple. As part of Susan's birthday, Eric and Susan had a date to go see the Arizona Ballet Company perform the Nutcracker in Phoenix at the Symphony Hall. Julianna was pretty much beside herself upon her parents disappearance. Luckily, big sister knew just what to do.


She sang a special Christmas song right into her ear. Sisters are special!

Congratulations to Lisa and Kenley!
