Weddings and Travel

What a busy wedding season! We've attended six weddings since May, and that's not including two we couldn't make it to! In August alone, we've travelled to St. Louis for Brent's cousin Scott's wedding, and to Keystone CO for my friend Kate's wedding. We had a great time with the Hansen family in STL, and a lot of fun with some of my friends from college in CO! And of course sightseeing on both trips! Congrats to the newlyweds Scott & Clara Hansen and Brandon & Kate Haynes! Here are a few pictures from the trips!

I wish wishing was enough...

It is no secret that Brent and I have had our troubles conceiving a child. We've tried for three years, both on our own and with the help of a fertility specialist. But once again, luck wasn't on our side. After another round of fertility treatment, we lost another baby four weeks ago. It was early, but that doesn't make it any easier. This is our third miscarriage, and needless to say, we are very devastated, disappointed, and discouraged. It has been a long and difficult road for us with no end in sight. If wishing, hoping, and praying were enough, we'd have a beautiful healthy child. We would appreciate everyone's prayers as we recover from this and try to add to our family, because we aren't giving up!

Wedding season is halfway over!

Summer is unofficially "Wedding Season", and boy, is it in full bloom for us! On July 17th, both my cousin Leah and my friend Molly got married. Both brides looked absolutely radiant, and the receptions were fun for catching up with family and having a blast with friends, respectively. Next up on the schedule to wind down the season: Brent's cousin Scott's wedding in St. Louis on August 14th, and my friend Kate's wedding in Keystone, CO on August 21st (and that's not counting the two weddings we won't make it to this Saturday). Here are some photos from the weddings of Brent & Leah Biggs and Scott & Molly Nedved!
