Wedding weekend

We had a very busy wedding weekend. First all of the girl cousins, and aunts, and my mom and grandma all got together at the park behind my house and we had a Bridal Shower for, Savannah, my soon to be sister-in-law. Here is a picture of her in a cute game we played where she had to answer the same questions that Blake was asked earlier. She actually did really good. She is an amazing match for Blake and we are all so excited for them to get married...soon.
Then Firday night we all got together at Megan and Eric Woodleys house for a big family dinner to celebrate my cousin John Woodley who was marrying Kylie the next day. It was fun having a dinner together with all our cousins, and aunts and uncles, and siblings, and grandparents. I think everyone was there on my dad's side of the family except for the two missionaries in Mexico and Pennsylvania. John and Kylie are such a fun couple, and since they both live here in Provo we get to see them alot.

Here are some pictures I took at the Family dinner. My cute little cousin Maxwell and Shawn with his goatee (i am ready for him to get rid of it) Fifi and Chloe who are playing with Jared's Bingo toy (spinning the bingo balls is one of his favotire things to do)
And crazy boy Carter, who is not wanting to pose for me to take his picture. I just love having everyone around, it is so great getting together with extended family and i love seeing all our cute little cousins.


Saturday was the "wedding Day" so we all got the the Timpanogas Temple in time for a beautiful sealing by my Grandpa Nelson and then we all waited outside for the Bride and Groom to come out. There were alot of us outside waiting for Kylie to get changed into her wedding dress, and alot of other people too. While we waited outside we probably saw 3-4 other weddings going on at the same time. Here is cute baby Kate with her mommy, I dont think she was enjoying the heat of the day. Then there is Brighton, Shawn, Me, my mom with her eyes closed, and Brax all waiting in the shade for John and Kylie to come out of the Temple.

And here we have Brandalyn, Hally, O' Brain, Diane, and Maddie waiting in the hot sun, for pictures to be over so we could all go out to lunch at our favorite...Cafe Rio. And here is Brax, Chris, Brighton, and Kyle (my mom forgot to bring his church clothes from my house to the Temple...so he was rolling a little bit more casual then the rest!)
And this is the only picture I got of John and Kylie, there were so many people and photographers, and family around I just opted into taking a photo from afar and called it good. So, here they are the bride and groom, she looked beautiful and he is a handsome boy with his big dimples.
I did not get any photos on my camera of the reception that night at Kylies house, but it was absolutley beautiful. And it was so fun hanging out with all of my family for the weekend, and what made it better was they all came here to us, instead of us driving to where everyone else is.




2 weeks left and we will have Blakey's wedding next...cant wait!
