In April, we took a family trip out west to, as Justin put it, "get a new aunt" (Alex's brother, Hebe, got married). At dinner the night before Carley (the bride) walked by our table in her wedding dress and McKenzie leaned over to me and said, Mama, there's a princess! From then on Carley was dubbed "Princess Carley" and Hebe, her prince:

The happy couple!
Justin fell in love, again, and was heart-broken the next morning to learn that Princess Carley and Hebe were indeed getting married.

Hebe and Carley got married in the Draper Temple and, even though J and Mc didn't get to attend the ceremony, I think you'd agree they had a great time:
We also spent a lot of time on Temple Square. I loved seeing all the flowers in bloom and touring the roof of the Conference Center. Justin LOVED the organs in the Tabernacle and the Conference Center and McKenzie had to have her picture taken by the "pink" flowers -- I'm pretty sure they both enjoyed the various fountains:
We took the time to visit one more temple (actually the first) in Alex's hometown:

The Bountiful Temple
McKenzie's third birthday was April 26 (the Saturday we flew home) but Aunt Rach and Aunt Sam threw a fun party for her the day before:
