Wedding weekend

Jeremy's cousin, Chalyse was married last week.  We drove out for the festivities and for the chance to see family again.  Weddings can be crazy busy, but we felt like it was pretty manageble this time around.  The first step was getting all of our party clothes ready.  Cambrie is very particular about her clothes and they have to fit just right.  To see which dress she would actually wear on this trip she put on a little fashion show for us.  She would turn, strike a pose, and give us some sassy faces. 

McKenzie on the other hand wasn't up for a show.  She looked cute anyway.

After dresses were chosen and girls were sleepy and smiling, they joined us at the temple for pictures after Chalyse's wedding.  They were cute with the bride and her new groom. 

But even cuter with their cousins.  I'm glad they love playing together. 

And a quick family picture before the wedding dinner. 

The reception was actually the next night up at the State Capitol.  I have so many fond memories of spending time up there with my mom that it was nice to be back.  The reception was beautiful and Chalyse and Daniel looked so happy.  We took an almost-complete Rogers' family picture. 

Nana posed with her silly granddaughters. 

And we got another picture of some of the cousins.  Parker totally loves all of the attention with the girls, but McKenzie was done saying "cheese."

The rest of the night the kids ran around like sugar-fed crazies (wait a second, they were).  They ran up and down the stairs, along the upper balconies, and played tag behind the many pillars available.  Kora and Kenzie kept themselves entertained for awhile making silly faces at each other. 

The highlight of the night for McKenzie was when the dancing started.  She jumped from adult to adult looking for someone to spin her and dance with her.  She danced for two hours straight before they finally turned it off and it was time for the bride and groom to make their exit. 

Cambrie only danced with her daddy and left uncle and cousins broken-hearted with her rejections. 

It was a great wedding, a fun party, and we were so glad we got to be out there to celebrate with family.
