Julia + Shane

 The wedding weekend finally came and it was so much fun!  All my siblings were here (it's been a really long time since we have all been together!) and there were tons of cousins for my kids to play with.
Friday night was a dinner for all the family. 
Here's Shane and Julia

and my beautiful sister Michelle (without braces) with Tori.

Here's me with all my sisters!  I LOVE these girls!

The reception was BEAUTIFUL!  and so was Julia!

The older girl cousins helped clear the tables and keep the refreshment table stocked.  My sister Larse made these darling aprons for them...



These boys opened the doors for guests and took their presents...


The dads hung out with the little ones...

and the little girls couldn't get enough of the candy table...


Julia threw her bouquet...

and Tori caught it!
Not a good thing!  One, Tori is TOO young, Two, Michelle is not ready to plan another wedding.  I call for a re-throw!  :)

Julia and Shane danced...

Love was in the air and I wanted to dance.  Mark was busy (either talking or taking care of Jessica), Tommy ran away when I asked him to dance, but Sam reluctantly accepted.
Awww...it was sweet dancing with my little guy!  I was loving it, but I think he was a little embarrassed!

Since my parents and all of my siblings were together, we had a family picture.  My dad wanted us to line up in order but leave a space for my brother Trent, who passed away about 16 years ago.

It was such a fun weekend to be together with my family and see Shane and Julia get married.  Congrats Julia and Shane!
