Saturday we all got up early and got ready for Emily's wedding. We had to pack the car and be dressed which was hard after getting in so late the night before but we all made it and everyone was looking good. Emily and Spencer were married in our LDS Temple so the kids could not
come in so they all waited outside while the couple was married. It
was wonderful that John and I were able to sit with my parents and siblings for this special day.
Katie and her cousin Amanda were the flower girls in Emily's wedding party and they both looked so cute together and they loved being able to help out on this special day.
After the wedding and pictures were done well all went inside to have some lunch and hang out together and cool down after being out in the hot weather.
After lunch was done all of the families changed and the kids had fun running around and hanging out together. Its hard for our kids to get to know there cousins since we all live so far apart so its a special time that they all get some time to be together.
We took advantage of us all being together and had a family photo taken. It has been over 11 years since we have all been together so it was a perfect time to have it done. We were missing my one older brother and his wife but other than them we were all together.
Each family had a color and of course we chose red and I think our picture turned out really good.
Each family had there individual pictures taken then we had all the cousins get together for a picture and it turned out great. This is the first time we have been able to get a picture of them in about 4 years so I was so glad to have us all together.
After a very busy first half of our day we had to climb into our very full car and drive about 3 hours back up to TN and then get ready for Emily's reception that night. It has been great spending time with our family and now we are heading back into the car for a fun party later.
