Long Picture Recap... hope you make it through

So tonight I went with my sisters (Kathy, Keah and Laura) to see the movie The Last Song, which I was excited about because I read the book and LOVED it. I enjoyed the movie a lot, it brought tears to my eyes, but Miley wasn't Ronnie for me. Read the book, it's so good. The movie was made even better because of this stud muffin, Australian born actor Liam Hemsworth, he was pleasant to watch.

So I felt like a real teacher tonight because as I was waiting in line, I saw a student from my grade three practicum class. When we were closer together I said hi and she jumped up and gave me a big hug... turned out she was going to the same movie. I saw her come in and look around but her dad took her somewhere else to sit. After the movie she waited out side with me and we chatted about the movie for a few minutes and she walked out with us. Laura wanted a girls night group shot and my student took it for us. It was very cute.

Easter was a busy weekend for us. Thursday we finished student teaching, Friday my brother-in-law Jaccob got married, Saturday was Easter brunch and Sunday was conference and Easter dinner at the O'Hearons. Busy, Busy, Busy... we've been enjoying sleeping in this week. Laura took my camera for some photo fun outside on Sunday. I love this idea she had with the sidewalk chalk. The Nelson 5... too cute!

Didn't his name turn out cute, he wrote it himself and I helped him plump it up.

Love this little girl... our Sarah Grace, such a beauty

Look at those baby blues... not loving the grass.

As mentioned about my brother-in-law got married in the Halifax Nova Scotia Temple on Good Friday and it was a BEAUTIFUL day. The weather was perfect and everyone looked amazing. I took over 400 pictures, and they're all on facebook, but here are a few of my favourites.

Me and my sweetie enjoying the reception- he looked so cute in his tux

Sarah and Jaccob cutting the cake, I like this shot because you can see the flower in Sarah's hair, which looked awesome. The cake is actually not real, it's a fake cake that my mother-in-law and sister-in-law made and it smelt and looked so good.

My adorable in-laws, I'm very lucky to have them in my life- don't they look amazing!

My youngest sister-in-law Brittany and her super funny boyfriend Ian, they are super cute together. Brittany looked amazing at the wedding- such a cute couple

This is another shot credited to Laura and her love of unique pictures... such a beautiful shot of Sarah and her flowers

Mr. & Mrs. Jaccob Bing- thought I'd chosen one where he wasn't blinking... he was having a hard time with the sun that day.

aren't they just adorable- Sarah looked STUNNING!

The newly expanded Bing family... we are down to one person to be married. We like doing things in pairs, we got married in August, Meaghan was married in October. Chelsey was married in January, Jaccob was married in April. Brittany will have a wedding year all to her own.

They did a dove release and I thought this shot turned out awesome

They had a large wedding party filled with special people in their lives

The Bing Girls... just missing out newest addition

Thursday was my last day of school, which was bitter sweet. I'm excited to be done and one step closer to graduation, but sad because I'm going to miss my class so much. I took a bunch of pictures which I can't post but we had a great last day and I cried of course. The kids made me a really cute book, and Michelle my teacher gave me a silk screen and tool to use to silk screen t-shirts, which I'm super excited for. We did art in the afternoon and we did block printing which was super cool to do, something I will be doing with the nieces and nephews for sure.

The last week of school was also the week before the wedding so we had a few events for that, such as a rehearsal dinner. I took a few shots of the night, it was a great celebration with so much delicious food.

In March we celebrated Jacob's 6th birthday with cake and ice cream. It was a great celebration and a lot of fun. Here are a few shots from that great celebration.

Miss G liked her brother's new cape that we gave him

Together 6 years, I was there the day he was born... I sure love this big boy

sitting on his new ride... wow!

I was also able to go to a girls night at the Buxton home. It was a great night of friends, food and New Moon. We chatted throughout the movie, but we'd all seen it before which was okay. Beckey had a festive set up for the night which included and Edward that sparkles!

We also had a bridal shower for Sarah in March. Laura took this great shot of all the Bing ladies, now that Jaccob is married we are complete for the Bing Girls

Sarah also celebrated her birthday this month and got to wear "the hat"- we all have the pleasure of wearing it on our birthdays, and looking as cute as Sarah did!

Over the March break (it's been that long-i know) I was able to go hangout with Sonja and the kiddies for a little bit. Sonja's baby bump is growing all the time... I'm excited to meet Baby Girl Nelson this summer

Over the March break we had the opportunity to celebrate Emmy & Finley's birth with a baby shower. Keah was showered with so many amazing gifts and outfits for the girlies... they will look so cute when they can start wearing it all. Here are some pictures from that day...

Miss G taking a bike break and laying on the Dining room table

Chubby boy getting some exercise in the jolly jumper... he's working off those thunder thighs

This is one of the 20+ hugs that my students made for the twins the day they were born

Keah's face is awesome in this one... can you tell she was excited about the following picture...

twin tutu's for the babies made by great-aunt julie- they'll be so cute in them

Proud parents hanging out with the chunky monkey

The O'Hearon Girls, those three always plan their outfits without me... what can I say I prefer color in my life.

March also brought this kids first birthday and goodness was he fun to celebrate with. Dinner was delicious and cake was YUMMY. He enjoyed it a lot! Can you tell?

Someone thought using a fork after the fact would look more mannerly

The Bing's with the birthday boy- LOVE him!

We also had the four Nelson kiddies sleep over on the first official day of March break. We did crafts, had snacks, watched movies, built a tent and went to the play ground. This was the funniest picture from that adventure. We wanted to get a picture of all the kids hanging on the bar, we had everyone up and then added Georgia and then everyone else fell before we for the picture, we tried to get everyone else back up, and in the process forgot about Miss G, this picture shows B remembering that wait she is still hanging up there. Too funny!

Hope this blog finds everyone well. We are enjoying sleeping in and preparing to head back to the Mount for one more week. I'm on a job hunt, keep me in your prayers that I'll find something soon, I really want to work at Chapters.

Also keep the twins in your prayers, I haven't been able to see them in person for a little while because I've had a cold, it's almost gone and I can't wait to see the girlies again. I've heard they are both getting bigger and both have opened their eyes. I miss them loads and cannot wait to talk to them again.
