WEDDING PICS AND HOUSE UPDATE

Tyson and I had our wedding pictures done by Digipix of Vernal. The photographer used a camera that flashes bursts of pictures at one time. I'm guessing he does this so that maybe one of the 10 shots of the same thing might be decent. I definitely think we got quantity, not so much quality. Four years ago, it took us about three or four hours just to view the disc of 1,254 wedding pictures, and then pick a package from there. We chose a few, well, six shots, and then had a disc made with the remaining pictures to view as an electronic wedding album. They charged $40.00 for one 4 x 6 print... yikes.

Tyson and I moved to Salt Lake in July of 06' to our little house in Sugarhouse. One day while we were in sacrament, I told Tyson I wanted to go home for some weird reason. We never leave early, so it was very out of the ordinary to leave after the sacrament was passed. When we got home, I thought I might go down stairs to the dungeon, well, its the laundry room really. Much to our dismay, there were six inches of standing sewage water in the basement...

This was a rough day for us, we had only lived in that house about a month, so tons of our stuff was still in boxes in the basement storage. We threw out several boxes that were soaked, and we're guessing, since we can't find it, the wedding disc went out with the boxes damaged in the flood!!! We call it the flood of 06'.

The flood of 06' happened two years ago, and just this last weekend, we finally got another wedding disc from Digipix. Digipix has gone out of business and isn't printing or doing anything anymore. They sold us a new disc that has full rights to the pictures, so we can go to any film developing place to have our wedding pictures printed out. They were very difficult to deal with from the very beginning, again, quantity, not quality. I'm SO SO SO excited to have all of our pictures now, only 4 years after the fact, better late than never though! I've put a couple of my favorites on here for your viewing pleasure:

Also, a quick house update, pictures coming, I promise. The house has changed dramatically over the last 2 1/2 weeks. Carpet is coming this Wednesday, so we are just about ready. We have had a great deal of help from family and friends, and we are so grateful for such great support. We had the entry way, both bathrooms, both showers, and kitchen tiled, new back splash in the kitchen, new doors and casings, baseboard, trim, vanities, lights, appliances, paint, banister, and carpet. Oh, and the grass that the bank let die, is getting greener each day, I am so excited to move in and have it be our home. My parents are bringing our appliances out from Basin Appliance on Thursday, I can't believe how far this little old bank repo has come!
