Lots of old pics

As I was going through my MIL's photos, I saw a lot of old pics of when Randy and I were dating/engaged/1st married. It was really funny to see how much we've changed. This is almost 1 year after we got married in Honolulu. We went with his parents for fun. See he use to have hair, & I use to be skinny(er). Our first Christmas together.
Opening wedding gifts. Seriously we got so many of those Pyrex dishes, it was crazy.
Our reception.
The open house in Pville.
Ya we were cake smashers. It fit our personalities more.
My bridal shower.
Playing Chutes and Ladders, cuz you know it's the best game in the world.
I went to the Tucker reunion while we were dating, actually I think this was right after we got engaged. Man I had an awesome tan back then. It helped I was a lifeguard and swim instructor at an outdoor pool.
Baby Morgan, what a doll.
I moved to WI first with Mac and looked for a place to stay. Randy stayed back for a few weeks and finished school and then drove out with his dad and bro with the big moving truck. This was right after he pulled in at my grandpa's place in Mequon.
Mac ran so fast to him.
This was right before we moved from Corvallis. Mac saying bye to everyone.
Kenz playing on G&G Tucker's swing, something she did a lot of.

A right-side up shot of hers.
OSU had a Luau to celebrate the Polynesian community. At the time my MIL was watching the cutest little Polynesian girls and was really good friends with their mom. So she invited us to attend.
Easter 2003. Mac was 2 and really enjoying finding the eggs this year.
Randy's bday, not sure which year. We all pitched in and got him a leather jacket. We first gave him the scarf and acted like that was it and you could tell he was a little disappointed, it was pretty funny.
Randy and Rob playing at Otter Beach, the pool I worked at, during a family reunion.
Mac having lots of fun jumping in.
McKenzie gearing up for the slide.
Waiting for Uncle Rob to get off his plane from his missions to Indiana.
McKenzie was a master of getting into things at grandma's place. She liked the kitchen cupboard especially.
As you can see.
Great Grandpa Tucker with McKenzie and Randy's cousin's baby Maddie who is 9 days older than Kenz.
Halloween 2001. The Scarecrows.
Mac's 1st bday. We had a quick party for her between conference session and Priesthood session.
We made her a ladybug cake to crawl through and everyone else had cupcakes.
So happy and doesn't even know why.
Randy still outweighing me, Mac and Tyler, lol. (not really, but it sure looks funny)
Here is the infamous red wagon that the kids all love. I remember my MIL getting some pretty cute shots of Mac in here.
Easter 2001. This was shortly after Randy started shaving his hair.
Spring 2001, our first family picture.
Mac's first Easter. So exciting I tell ya.
Mac and grandpa wearing hats.
Mac was in the water at about 5 months, thanx to me who was still teaching. I would bring her to waterbabies and use her as an example. She loved the water.
Grandma and the 1st 3 grandkids.
Mac about 6-8 months.
That bunny sang and danced and was very loud, McKenzie loved it, we did not.
Kenz and Gramps.
Kenz chillin on the couch with a bear.
Yes I get tired too.
Randy's birthday
This is Randy's cousin Stephanie with her baby Maddie. We were pregnant at the same time and due about the same time. She had her's 9 day's before Mac came. This was at McKenzie's blessing.
Teaching her to pray, lol. She was a really strong baby though.
Christmas 2000.
Gotta love having a Santa as big as you right?
The Tucker girls and our mathcing vests. Remember when vests were soooo cool? Or am I that old.
Grandma's ginormous bear and itty bitty McKenzie.
Me and Mac, staring at the light.
There's my bald baby.
Oh and our ferret Minnie. We had her for about 2 years before we moved to WI. She was fun, smelly but fun.
Us at Maddie's blessing.
Mac's first stroller ride, pathetic I know, but ya got to document these things, right?
Randy after a strenuous 7 1/2 hours of labor.
About a week before McKenzie came. Randy trying to very hard to have a belly.
Proud daddy.

Thanx mom for being so organize and letting me steal this pics. It was fun to look at the past.
