Molli's Wedding


 Such a special day for these two.







The day was made even sweeter for me as Jeff and I were invited to attend her sealing, which took place in the same room as our own marriage.  A room I hadn't been back to since my own wedding day, now a treasured place where we both began our happily ever afters.

When she announced her engagement to me…one night at about 2:00 in the morning…I knew instantly what I wanted to do for a present for her.  But it took me forever to come up with a pattern that suited her personality. Case in point:


About a week and a half before her wedding I figured it out and made her this quilt. The pattern's name is Wild Thing.  I think it fits her perfectly.


These two girls were my best friends in high school. I love them both dearly and it was so good to spend the day together (well, actually mostly with Cressa as Molli was a *little* bit busy). I am excited that Molli has moved back to Idaho (her husband will be attending BYU-I) so she, Cressa, and I can resume our Girl Night Outs when I come up, which usually consist of the three of us going out to eat and staying up way too late laughing. I am so happy that we are all in the same place in life now.



Also, when we saw all the chocolate and caramel syrup set out at her luncheon, it may have been quite hard to resist paying her back for what she (and Cressa, Ryan, Maria, Jason…just to name a few) did to my car at our wedding. But I restrained Jeff, as I figured it might be worse to try to get frozen syrup off of a car as opposed to melting syrup.  Either way, Jeff still gets mad when he sees these pictures. Seriously, syrup and toilet paper?
