The Wedding of the Century!!






Last Thursday my brother Andy got married. We couldn't have been more happy or excited!! My new sister in law is Kristin and my girls absolutely adore her. She is perfect for my brother and he waited a long time to find her! Here are a couple of pics from the BIG event!!

This is my grandma with my girls. My mom has this great friend Colleen who made some delicious treats for people to have after the wedding while we waited for the bride and groom to come out. It was so perfect and we are so thankful to her! Anyway, here they are enjoying the treats!

Here is my sister and my girls. She is the best aunt in the whole world...Don't believe me? Ask my kids!!

A picture on the famous stone steps. We waited for a while...and the kids were kind of bored...


No,this is not a picture of Kristin or Andy's family. Yes, that is my dad. He likes to play "Who is that guy?" in wedding photos. When my dad goes to weddings at the temple, he waits until other bridal parties are taking family photos and then just casually gets into them like he is part of their family. I am sure that the bride and groom and their families wonder "who is that guy" when they get their pictures developed. Everyone thinks this is a hilarious joke in our family!! **Side note on this particular day. My dad was helping the grandparents and others get positioned for the picture. Like he was really part of the family or something!!




These are pictures from the reception. It was in this really amazing greenhouse place and it was so beautiful. The batteries in my camera died at the end of the reception, but a limo picked them up and my girls thought that was a dream come true. They really wanted to see inside, but there just wasn't time...I guess Andy and Kristin will have to tell them all about it...
Anyway,now my bachelor brother is a married man. How strange/wonderful is that? And, they lived happily ever after...The end!!!

PS Kristin's dad does AMAZING wedding videos. Here is the link to his blog if you want to watch Andy and Kristin's "pre-wedding" video. I can't wait to see the wedding video!! http://idovideos.blogspot.com/

I am so glad it all turned out so well. I love the girls dresses! They are so cute. I got some of my own for my girls! Your sister in laws dress was so pretty! I want to get married again and get all dressed up! Are you ready for school to start? What will you do with your life with just one little one at home all day?! I hope you will come over here and party!

How fun! I am cracking up about your dad pretending to be part of the other family, and even helping out. I am pretty sure I would have busted a gut had I been there! You and your girls look beautiful! Where is Aidan? Your bro and sis in law look awesome together!

What a beautiful bride. I love her dress and colorful bouquet.

We will truly miss you guys as our neighbors. We loved living in Sugar. Hopefully we will be back soon. Thanks for being so great. Take care.

Before I read what your dad does, I was looking at the pictures and going back and forth saying to myself "did she switch dresses?" Then I read about your dad and laughed my butt off. You guys look great!
