People out there, we've not fallen off the face of the earth! We're here just nothing too spectacular to post- well there is, just lack of pictures I suppose. Sorry, you guys don't have to read this if you don't want but I think it's pretty great stuff going on hahaha...
-August 6-8- I CAMPED! That's right folks, you read it correctly. I, Erica Gordon, slept outdoors. Ok, not really "outdoors"....Let me explain- Every year the Gordon family has a huge family reunion/grandpa's birthday party down at Skyline(I think that's what it is called) Most years we'd get a hotel room but things were different this year, so me and Daren had decided we were going to stay at his parents house Thursday night. Then leave bright and early Friday morning and head there and plan to leave late that night and drive straight home. Well, when I got home from work on Tuesday night Daren had decided to change the plan and we were going to be sleeping in his parents trailer...*gulp*...I've never been so upset/nervous in my entire life. I know most do not see the big deal in this. But this would be my first time camping in YEARS, little did I want to expose my fear to Daren's ENTIRE family--[They ended up counting there were over 50 people there]-- Of course, Daren went fishing all day long so I was there with his family. This was the first time I really felt like a Gordon. I think in years past I'd had someone who was a friend... and we could just sit there and talk all day but this year it was me all alone. But I really loved it!! I couldn't have asked for a better few days- minus the whole wind storm that had me in tears and sanded my nice beautiful car. What a way to ruin a diet also, but that peach jam/jelly(what is the difference...??) was to DIE for! Happy Birthday to Daren's grandpa, sweetest 84 years old man!
-Night of August 8. Leslie FINALLY got married!!!! I'd been waiting for that reception for a very very long time!!! Leslie is the bride who knows what she wants and how to throw a fantastic party! It was fair themed...seriously- I can't explain how great it was. Carameled apples, churros, snow cones, popcorn- also what a crappy way to stick to a diet- Not to mention dj'd by Al Lewis(famous voice of the Cache Valley radio, he's her uncle) But I think the thing that really made that night super fantastic, was when they decorated their car. No, it wasn't really good- Tyler and Leslie were PISSED(hehehe...) but because that weekend was also the Cache Valley fair their photographer after the reception had made some plans to go get pictures taken. Long story short I got to drive them and help Kellee take their pictures. What an honor, I feel like a celebrity seriously. Moments by Kellee hasn't posted those pictures yet but if you feel so please do, and I REALLY would...check the post of their bridals/groomals Of course, I believe the ones from their wedding night will be outstanding...so check again later to see those ones.
That's all I will share with you for now, this post is too long. So enjoy!

You crack me up Erica! Congrats on camping! That's awesome. The difference between jam and jelly is that jam usually has seeds or pieces of fruit left in it while jelly has none; it's just the taste of the fruit. And I know how you feel about helping Kellee! It's so fun! I am aching to see the pictures of the wedding too!
Erica, I'm so impressed that you actually camped, knowing you I understand what a HUGE deal that was. I'm glad that you had a good time with the Gordon family too.
I went and looked at Leslie's pictures and they are INCREDIBLE! I love the ones with the sparklers and I'm in love with Leslie's veil/gloves/necklace/dress. So great. I wish you would have taken pictures of the day I'm sure it was spectacular.
I am so glad you went camping. I think it is great you tried something new and you liked it!! I am sure that Daren appreciate you doing it too!! Way to go!! I can't wait to see all the wedding pictures. I am sure it was a great night!!
WOO-HOO! I am hitched! Now I can be in the married club with you! Thanks for all your help in the DJ booth. Uncle Al couldn't have done it without you guys! And also for all the help at the fair. I'm sure you have bulging biceps now from holding that super huge flash! AHH So much fun. Glad you guys all had a good time! Lets hang out and watch the new season of SYTYCD!
