A fun wedding weekend

Last weekend was cousin Melissa's wedding in Visalia, so we headed out to the valley for another fun weekend. They asked Kyle to marry them, which meant we got to be part of all the fun activities! Friday night included rehearsal and a delicious rehearsal dinner followed by a fun night of bowling! 

Because we knew we would be out late both Friday and Saturday night, we stayed at Jon and Sarah's house so that we could find one baby-sitter for Annaliese and Reed, and so that she could go to bed and not have to be woken up once we came home. It was a wonderful plan and I think Annaliese and Reed had a great time together!

On Saturday, Kyle didn't have to be to the wedding early, so we were able to spend the day at home with Jon and Reed. Grandpa, Grandma, and Mama Joan came over for a little while as well.




 Looks like they were discussing something serious!


 Thanks Mama Joan for the cute pants...they came with an adorable jacket that Annaliese did not want to try on for the picture!


Goodbye kisses

 



The wedding itself was absolutely gorgeous. Melissa looking so beautiful and happy. And Kyle looked pretty good himself, standing up there in the front as Deputy Commissioner of Civil Marriages. Yep, that was his title for the day. In California, anyone can marry anyone...you just fill out a form at the courthouse, pay a small fee and they give you the title:) (Granted, it's only valid on that specific day, in that specific county, for that specific couple!)

Before heading back home on Sunday, we were able to stop for a quick, unplanned visit with my good friend Julie and her husband Travis. We haven't seen them in quite some time so it was good to catch up...they were gracious enough to put up with Annaliese making a mess of their house and trying to play with their cats (who had no interest in playing with Annaliese!) Kyle was also able to catch a little Sunday afternoon football! Unfortunately, I left the camera in the car.
