MAKENNA TURNED "1" ON THE THIRD!!!

Makenna shouldn't be 1 already. It's the greatest having her around, she brings us so much joy. I like how she is starting to really know who we are and smiles, reaches for us and works on the words of grandma and grandpa (notice I put grandma first!!!). We love her so much and are so glad that Makenna,Shantell and Cody are close by. We have great times together. It's a great season in life. Shantell and Cody had a super "I'm 1" birthday party for Makenna on the 28th of August. It was so nice. Shantell had spent many hours putting together Makenna's first year of pages in a scrapbook, she has done so many cute things in it and I'm proud that she shared it with everyone. I loved it, Shantell. Thanks for keeping the memories alive for Makenna.

After thoughts from MoM- See no runaway bride or groom-It's fabulous!!

I am so proud of you both, Megan and Travis. It is going to be a Great Journey. You have a special relationship, which has been going on since, What?, since you were 6 years old, Megan! This is destiny, be good to it and charish the time you have together. I Can't belive you have already been married 5 days. I'm excited for you to have many adventures together. I love you. MoM

Wedding Day has began...

Unbelieveible!!! It's here!!!
Here's the short version of the entire day!!! We started bright and early...Cleaning, setting up, decorating tables, putting supplies and food in kitchen, picking up cakes, waiting for flowers to come, doing last minute touch ups, taking pictures before it all really begins, hurrying home to get ready in a very short time, Going back to where it will all take place sooner than planned, all the family start to show up, everybody is getting ready for ceremony espeically Megan, the ceremony begins, words of wisdom to wedding couple and to all from the bishop, these two single people become now a married couple, vows and rings are exchanged, the ceremony ends with Bride Megan and Groom Travis kissing and congrads are given, we love the support of our family, food is prepared and served, pictures are taken, the reception begins, many wonderful people enter the room to share with this wedding couple in their new journey, the reception ends, and it's been an amazing day,Megan, Travis, Dad and Mom Zundel sit down for cake, we clean up just a little, Travis carries Megan out the door, we hear a tererible clanging noise, its on the back of the couples car. "Just Married" it says.

Sunday we went back to Crystal Hot Springs to do the opening of gifts and cards. It was a real treat. Megan and Travis enjoy the sentiments and thoughtfulness of family and friends. It was another wonderful day. Thing are "just right" with these two, it feels good for them to be together.

I can't believe what must happen before we have the Wedding!!

I'm worn out!!! All this running around. So much to do- So little time!!! It seems to crazy..."Pick up pressed wedding dress, buy food, gather decorations, wrap gifts, finish "Just Married"sign, save cans, pick up Tux, Make sure Megan doesn't forget the Keyboard or any other thing needed for the Wedding and so on and so on and so on... "

Makenna's First Birthday is Coming up-Sept 3rd!!!!

Grandma just loves the fact that Makenna says "Grandma"!!! and that Makenna even cries when grandma needs to leave. Grandma feels loved.

The Wedding is on and it's almost here!!!

We have been like busy little bees getting ready for this wonderful time in Megan and Travis's life. August 29th will be a great day, As the invitation puts it. Travis and Megan took a few steps back, for a moment, to confirm that their life together is truly meant to be. Now, more than ever, they are looking forward to their commitment of love, friendship and marriage. We are happy to be a part of both of thier lifes. We love you guys.
