{Wedding}

There are so many pictures here. SO enjoy! I really didn't take as many as I should have but if I wasn't occupied with the actual wedding, I was chasing my little guy around. We drove up to the beautiful draper temple, and since we were a few minutes early, Ben decided to show us his house he just built.
Ya, we weren't the only people who were spying inside, a couple other cars pulled over to check out this beauty. Then, my dear sister in law finally got married. It was a beautiful sealing, and I think I still can't believe we are both married now. She looked drop dead gorgeous and Gidean was a really happy man. We are so happy for them.

After the lunch in, we sped over to Katie's basement apartment to get some last minute reception decor. You know, some non important stuff such as the wedding cake, and sound system. The door was supposed to be unlocked but wasn't. After Ben yelled into the owners house a few times (and threatened to run inside), we finally got them to unlock it for us! That definitely threw us back for time, and I don't think I've sweat so much before in my life. So by the time we finally finished setting up the beautiful reception, I was really gross looking, and pretty burned out. My belly couldn't support my heels anymore and my hair was so wet and flat (from sweat. sick) I just did not care. All that mattered was Katie and Gidean were happy and the reception went smoothly.
Poor Jonah got so sun burned from standing outside the temple. He was a wreck the rest of the day! Thank you so much to my in laws for watching him while we set up! There was no way we could have done it with him there.
This is how it was most of the night, chasing Jonah out of the people's garden and trying to keep him contained.
As you can tell by now, Katie's colors were pink, orange, and brown. So all of the girls wore hot pink tops. There were alot of us too. I think Gidean has six sisters.


Kneaders catered and as you can see the pasteries were going fast! They were SO good, no one could control themselves. I think the hardest part of the night was keeping these plates full.

Katie's bridesmaids
I took all these pics before people arrived. I wish I had taken more pictures with all our family and friends there. It was really fun to see all of Zach's cousins.And that's it. We had to leave a little early, since we still had some cleaning to do, and we had to leave at six the next morning to move. We were all pretty burned out the next day, but I'm so happy for the newly weds! You guys better come up and visit soon!!

Yeah, you're right, you looked TOTALLY gross in that picture. (I'm being sarcastic.)

Thanks for posting the pictures. Katie looks gorgeous and really happy. That is wonderful. I'm glad her lunch in went well too. Lunch ins can be a lot of work. It's not every day that you get a good lunch in.
