Family FUN!!!

Two weeks before Tyson was to come home from his training in Mississippi me, my two girls & Seneca went down to Preston for my little brother Marshall's wedding. We also had a lot of other fun activities planned with the family so we went a week early.

#1 fun activity- My dad, Myself, Matt, Sadie, Seneca and Dillon went rafting down the Bear river. It took us three hours to float down and other than Seneca being thrown out of the boat and nearly drowning, and Dillon splitting his lip open on his paddle it was an awesome time.

#2 activity- My mom, Sadie and me all went to dinner at Sadie's boyfriend's, went shopping and ended the night going to our soon-to-be sister-in-laws' wedding shower.

#3 fun in the sun- My parents, brother Marshall, sister Sadie, Seneca, Dillon, my girls and I all went to Bear Lake. Bear Lake is the only lake I've been to in all my years that is more like being at the ocean only without the sharks, jellyfish and salt water. The beaches are beautiful sandy and the water reflects the blue skies. We spent several hours playing in the sand, water and having a picnic. Such FUN!

#4 probably the most fun besides Marshall's wedding was going to the famous Preston Night Rodeo with almost everyone from my family. My mom was a good sport and stayed home with Aurora and Harper but all my siblings were there. We went to the parade before hand, then headed over to the rodeo. This rodeo is not your typical rodeo because it is at night after it gets dark and the clown performs a hilarious half time show. It was a great time!

The much awaited event, of course, Marshall's wedding. In the afternoon we all went to the Bluebird for a luncheon that got both our family and Andria's family together for a really good meal. Then after going to my brother Matt's apt. to get dressed for the wedding we all piled in vehicles and went to Andria's parents house for the wedding/reception. They did an outside wedding in her parents gorgeous yard. The wedding was so beautiful and the reception was soooo much fun. Their colors were a creamy purple and dark peach and for refreshments they served these cute little cheesecakes & eclairs and a fruity frappe. I wished that Tyson and my girls could have been there, but Tyson was 2200 miles away and the girls stayed with their other grandma because it would have been a really long day for them.

The week couldn't have went better and we enjoyed every minute of it!
