Wedding Weekend

This past weekend we celebrated with Jeremy’s sister, Jen, as she married Arturo.  We traveled to eastern Pennsylvania near Scranton to go to the wedding.  Madison did a fantastic job in the car; it was about 8 hours of driving. We could drive for about 3 hours before she hit her limit; then, we would get out, eat, walk around, and play at a park when we could.  We got there just in time to see rehearsal– and be a part of… Jeremy was a scripture reader.  Here are some pics from that night….

                  

                             

It was beautiful and shaded at about 6pm, but the next day at 1:15 would be in full sun.  For good or for bad, it was raining all the next day and the wedding was moved indoors to this simple room.  Here are pictures from the wedding ….

            

            

                                

The dinner was outside under a tent.  The tables looked beautiful.  For most of the meal, I was back at the cabin while Madison took a nap.  When we returned, we dressed in warmer clothes since it was pretty cold outside.  The cakes were arranged on tree stumps, which I thought was a pretty neat idea.  Madison was a dancing machine and pretty much went up to anyone.  Our only mishap during the dancing was when she tried three times to dance with a little girl about her age.  The little girl shoved her down three times!  Poor Madison, she didn’t know what was happening. :(  Otherwise, it was a good night!

            

              

             

             

We traveled home on Sunday to my parents’ house.  We were able to connect with Luke’s family while we were there as well.  On Monday we finally made it home in the morning.  It felt like a longer than a 3-1/2 day getaway… I think there was just a lot of traveling, rather than just relaxing.  We were glad we could share in the special day.  Congratulations, Arturo and Jen!
