The Nolden Family

I was lucky to get into town just in time for Whitney’s Briday Shower, put on by her mom, Kathy.  It was held at a relative’s home in Provo, and I took my sister Samantha with me and two of her daughters, Tristan and Ashton.

One of the cool things about the wedding is that I got to spend time with family (the “mini” family reunion).  My whole family lives in Utah and I live in Georgia…so it’s not always easy to do that.  We stayed at my sister’s house and the kids got to see their cousins.  I also [...]

Cody and Whitney were married at 9am on a beautiful Saturday morning in the Salt Lake Temple.

Here are more photos from the morning of the wedding.  The kids couldn’t go into the temple for the ceremony, so they waited outside on Temple Square for a little while. 

The reception was GORGEOUS!!!  Whitney’s family had a friend with a beautiful home that sat right on the banks of the Provo River in North Provo.  The backyard was lush and fantastic.  I wish I had gotten a lot of pictures…I am waiting to see the ones from the photographer.  I was so busy talking [...]

We had to leave for home early the morning after the wedding to get kids back to Georgia for school.  We drove the whole 31 hours and only stopped for food and potty breaks.  It’s 31 hours if you don’t stop.  I drove from 3am to 9am, while Frank slept…and he drove the rest.  It [...]

Whitney’s family is from Sugar Land, Texas, which is just Southwest of Houston.  Two weeks after they got married, we made a trip down to Texas for the second and last Reception for them. After we left the Atlanta Metro Area…we were in totally un-discovered territory for all of us, except Frank…who has been everywhere.  [...]

Cody is so amazing!  During the school year he takes full-time graduate classes and still manages to have his own business, have fun, be engaged and plan a wedding all at the same time…during the summer he didn’t have classes, but he did have a full-time internship (at LDS church headquarters)…plus all the other stuff. So, [...]

There were sooooo many cute ones, and I couldn’t put them all on here…so I had to pick a few of my favorites.  You can click on ANY photo to see a larger version and look at them in a slideshow format…

We saw it coming, but we didn’t know exactly when it would happen .  Cody and Whitney are now OFFICIALLY engaged!!  Wooohooo.  We absolutely LOVE Whitney and can see that the two of them are perfect for one another.  What a great start to an eternity together.  They are going to be married in the [...]
