OK, here's the official reason we went out that specific weekend. Aaron's little brother Garth got married and Kiery officially joined the family! Hooray! The ceremony was beautiful, the weather was hot hot hot (have I mentioned that I struggle now with the heat?), the dinner was uber-yummy (I don't think Sydney had a single complaint until they put the food away) and gorgeous since it had cooled off a bit, and the reception was fantastic, relaxed, and fun. Kiery and Garth both seemed pretty relaxed about things and weren't stressing all day, which will make their memories even better! Here's the happy couple outside the temple (which is behind me)
I really love this picture. Kiery's face is so classic.
Almost everyone has a goofy look in this one too. Keep in mind that the real photographer was to my left, so who knows what Garth & Kiery were looking at!
The ring ceremony - I really liked her sparkly dress
Aaron and Sydney at the ring ceremony goofing off. They were brilliant and chose to give fans as their wedding favors. Smart move guys!
The cake. Such a candid shot. I love it. Thanks Adi.
Another stolen pic. Where was I and where was my camera? Good thing my sisters and sister-in-laws were prepared during this trip!
Sydney trying to catch the bouquet. While watching this and the garter throw I had a flashback to my own wedding where little Garth caught the garter on his head and my sister Haylee (now married and 36 weeks prego) caught the bouquet. Ah, good times.
The next morning we headed home. We went through Wyoming, so it was far less beautiful than the Grand Junction drive (sorry Justin, it's scrubby!), but there was WAY less construction and far fewer abrupt changes in altitude. The result was that Sydney slept a lot more (sing praises), I discovered that sea-bands do not work on me (drat), and riding in the car for long distances in my personal condition is way more than uncomfortable, it's downright painful! But we made it home, we are all safe and sound, and Sydney is tearing up the house and keeping us on our toes! Whew! Now I'll try to post all our pics from the last 2 weeks!
