Weekend Wedding


This weekend we traveled to California for Mike and Melissa's wedding. It was a whirlwind weekend, with our arrival in Sacramento on Friday, wedding on Saturday, reception in Redding that night, and return home on Sunday. Luckily the kids behaved well, even after being in the car for over 28 hours. (Blessings on whomever invented the portable dvd players and books on cd)



The wedding colors were purple and purple.



Trying to find purple for the girls outfits this summer was nearly impossible. It took three determined mothers and all the stores in three counties to find what we needed. But, wouldn't you know that now there is purple in all the stores, because it is the hottest color for Fall. (Murphy's Law strikes again)

Interestingly enough when we asked the kids what was the most memorable part of the trip, it wasn't seeing Mike and Melissa married (sorry Mike & Melissa), the 30 wild turkeys on the Sacramento Temple grounds, seeing Mt. Shasta and Mt. Lassen, or staying three nights in three different hotels...it was a breakfast at a casino just west of Reno. That worries me just a bit.

I remember going to fremont for your wedding reception years ago! That was so much fun- but, unlike your kiddo's- my favorite part of the vacation was your reception!
