november wedding

We had such a fabulous time in Utah visiting our family,

and of course enjoying the main event the wedding of Matt's beautiful  sister Lexi

...now Mrs. Johnson! ;)

I couldn't love these two individuals more.  Weddings are so SO much fun.  We woke up to snow, it was so beautiful!  It was a gorgeous day, and was surprisingly warm.

Can you just see the love all over their faces?  They were radiating pure happiness.

The sealing was performed by Elder Christofferson.  It was beautiful, he and he wife are extraordinary people.  The sealing was by far my favorite part of everything that day.

Here we are with the couple of the day, don't mind my huge 31 week pregnant body. 

 Luckily, I felt fantastic and full of energy until the end of the day. 

I was worried how I would hold up. :)

Grace was so funny, she had everyone laughing during our family pictures after.  I am not sure what inspired it, but she kept yelling, "touchdown!" at the top of her lungs.  I guess that is a good Bushman analogy for what had just taken place.  Ha ha, I will have her to thank for our natural smiles.

Regan playing with Grace on the right, she has so much uncle/aunt love. :)  Christa told us later she kept pointing to the angel moroni and acting as though she had a trumpet in her hand said, "do do do dooo!"  Apparently she performed that quite a bit .  I really need to get video of it, it's super cute. 

Watch for a full wedding post on the photography blog sometime in the next few weeks...

{Reception}

Christa did such a fantastic job on the reception.  I am not posting pictures now of how gorgeous it was, but trust me it looked fantastic. We had fun setting up the day before, the best part was just being with family and seeing so many good friends.

Grace was ALL OVER this wedding thing.  I think she thought Lexi was a real princess.Which she basically was. :)  She kept saying, "Lexi married!" in her most excited voice.  As you will see below she couldn't get enough of her flowers, dress, and jewelry.  Everything was, "beeeautiful!"  Grace and Madi had a good time running around together. 

Isn't little Boston so adorable?!

All of the girls...

After Lexi danced with her dad she danced with all of her brothers, and brother-in-law Bryan. 

It was sweet.  Grace decided she wanted to cut in at the end.

Alpidio even cut in!  He is so awesome, we all love him.  A funny memory of the night.

Jill Jensen, Matt's fun cousin with her family on the left.  Aren't her boys adorable?!  On the right my brother Scott with his girlfriend Brittany.  They are so cute.

The only sad thing of the wedding was that Brooke, Troy, Jackson and new baby Clara weren't there.  We really missed them, it helped a little seeing her dad and sister. 

They are great people and we had a great time chatting with them!

Matt taught Alpidio on his mission, he even brought his entire family.  They are the most kind and loving people you can imagine.  It was fun to see them and spend some time.

{Wedding Dinner}

Here are a few pictures of the wedding dinner at Molly's the Friday evening before. 

It was lovely and the food was SO good!

Landon got it all on video...

It was really fun to finally meet Brad's family.

My uncle Phil is a next door neighbor to Brad's parents, so it was fun to have a connection.  

My aunt has known Brad for a long time and assured me he is a keeper. ;) We think so too. 

His parent are really fun.

As you can tell, I just kind of love Boston. :) He's my buddy, I love how he is so chill and all smiles!
