Jenny & Benj's Wedding

We left home at 5:30 a.m. on our 4 hour car trip to our niece, Jenny's wedding. We thought for sure that Aubrey would fall right back to sleep. Nope, she did not sleep at all that little monkey. But she was good none-the-less. I think she thinks road trips are exciting, so she doesn't sleep much.

Here's our family outside the temple.


Aubrey and Brooke got to take a stroll with their cousins outside the temple during the sealing.




Aubrey brought her camera to take pictures of the wedding. She started directing who should be in pictures and where they should stand. It was hilarious.



First, she wanted all of her girl cousins, "to stand right there in a line, so I can take your picture." And they were nice enough to appease her.


Then she wanted to be in a picture too!






She once again directed her girl cousins to sit together for another photo op.


Brookie was much more interested in the flowers.








Brooke was being pretty shy and just wanted Ma Ma.


The new couple emerges. Aren't they a good looking pair.


Oh so romantic.




Aubrey giving her congratulations and hugs.


Brooke coming in for a closer look.






After the temple we went to a family luncheon.

I thought Aubrey looked so cute drinking from the big fancy goblet.


Tammy had them play the cutest game. They had to take off their shoes and each held one of their own shoe and one of the others shoe. Tammy asked questions like, "who has the best sense of humor?" and then they had to hold up the shoe of the one who best fit the question. They did pretty good and most of the questions they answered the same.



You never know what your going to get with Aubrey. She can be very shy and clingy or she can be a total ham. Well, apparently she was in ham mode, because she got right up on the stage and started performing fore everybody after lunch. I love how she made her entrance!


It was a beautiful day with a beautiful bride and a beaming groom. I'm so glad the wedding was close enough for us to attend!
