First We Practiced

So a week ago yesterday my cousin Laura got married. And the Friday before that she practiced getting married. We were lucky enough to be there because my kids..wait for it...were in the wedding! Bryce and Ella had the honor of standing with my cousin Laura and her husband Peter on her wedding day. We had so much fun being there with them. The wedding was at Saddleback church, which by the way is not beautiful at all. Pastor Rick, maybe you should work on that a bit. No really I am being so ridiculously sarcastic, the place is gorgeous. I told Jarrod that we should take a bunch of pictures in front of their whole waterfall/beach/fire pit area and just tell everyone that we went on an incredible tropical vacation, that is how beautiful it is!

So some of the highlights from the rehearsal besides the tropical oasis were:

Laura and Peter of course because we love them and wish them nothing but the best.

Bryce running as fast as he could right into a cement structure and almost breaking his nose. He was bleeding from his nose and also got a nice big bump and bruise on his forehead that he got to sport on the wedding day. Yay Bryce!

Meeting Pastor Rick Warren and his wife Kay.

Finding a sound proof indoor basketball court room that I could lock the kids in!

And the yummy food and good company.

The bride and groom, love them!The fun "bouquets."



The ring bearer and flower girl.

Bryce after he rammed his head into a wall.

The tropical oasis.

Tomorrow I will post about the wedding!
