Kensi's Wedding




I was so lucky to be able to go to Idaho for Kensi and Brett's wedding! I left my kids home and thoroughly enjoyed traveling without toddlers or babies or strollers or tons of luggage. I actually got to read and sleep on the airplane!! But, oh my gosh! I missed Nathan and my babies so much while I was gone! I don't know if it was because I was home with family and I've never gone to my parent's home without my kids but I felt like I was missing a limb! I don't think it would have been like that if I'd been on a tropical vacation or something. =) Anyway, it was pure bliss aside from the missing my kids and Nathan part. It was pretty much GO GO GO from the minute I arrived. I went straight to the bridal shower (almost). Two of Kensi's cute friends threw it for her. I love these girls. I'm so glad my siblings have such great friends up in Rexburg!

Summer, Kensi, and Alexis

Haily(my cute cousin), Kelyn, Brittney, Alyssa, Hannah, and Me
Annie, Mom, Kensi's friend, Alyssa, and Kens
The sisters (minus Carlie and Baylie)
Kensi got a balloon tied to her hair every time she answered a question wrong. =)
Killing time while we waited for Dad to bring the generator. The power kept going out and the fire alarm kept going off. It was hilarious!

After the shower we headed to the movies for the traditional pre-wedding movie. This time we brought a whole slew of people with us. It was so fun and we had the WHOLE theater to ourselves! We saw Gnomeo and Juliet.

Here are a couple group shots - we couldn't get the whole group in one picture so we had to divide everyone up. =)


After the movie all the sisters and a couple brave girlfriends did the traditional dancing in the front. The guys made scary hand shadows and pretended to pluck us up off the ground! Yikes
I like this one of Kensi and Brett with the psycho hand shadow hovering over them. Haha!
All the dancers:
Her wedding was beautiful. She was such a gorgeous bride and I'm just so happy for her and Brett! They were so cute all day. =) I didn't take any pictures of them at the temple because I was lazy and didn't want to tote my camera around so I stole this picture off of my sister, Amber's, blog:

I did take tons of pictures at the luncheon though (not so many at the reception - I was tuckered out!).

Here is one of all ten of us sisters:
Amber, Baylie, Brittney, Brittanie, Kensi, Carlie, Alyssa, Hannah, Tessa, and Kelyn
It was so fun to have ALL the siblings there!

Tess and I have never been very good at taking normal pictures together. =)
My Dad cracks me up - he kept popping up in these silly pictures!

And that's all the pictures I'm going to post from the wedding! I love my family so much. It was a busy, crazy weekend but we made lots of great memories.

Congratulations Kensi and Brett! I hope you have so much fun being in love and sharing in all of life's adventures! Love you guys!
