More wedding pictures!

 Getting ready

 Arlo did great! So glad he could be part of our wedding, too!

 This is about as close to a smile as we got out of Alaina for pictures- but she sure was cute!

 Getting ready for the ceremony

 Taking the easy way to the river....


 jason and Priscilla made all our cupcakes and the "grooms Cake".  They were all delicious!

With Sarah- who did an amazing job cooking for all those people!

We got MARRIED!

Yes, yes, I know these pictures are a little overdue!  But, I just got them back about a week and a half ago from our photographer- so I am not that late in posting!  Besides, things have been a little bit busy around here. 







Our wedding was a perfect day!  The only thing I was worried about was the weather- but I could not have asked for anything better!  I absolutely loved our wedding, and will treasure the memories forever.  I liked how laid back and casual it was- it was outside, and nobody cared that I took my shoes off for a large chunk of time.  We had our pictures taken about 11, and didn't get married until 1, so we weren't stressed about getting everything in, and after we got married- we could just go have fun! We got married overlooking the Root River- by an arbor that Christopher and I made.  Jim wrote the introduction, and surprised me with a beautiful story about how we met....when Logan (Jim's friend that married us) finished the story, our niece Elizabeth said, "That was a great story Uncle Jim!"  After we were married, we then followed the path through the woods to where the reception was held- under a tent on the lawn of Eagle Bluff.  Sarah (Squires) cooked most of our food, and it was unbelievable!  I know she worked really hard.  We had so many left overs, that we used them at a Potluck at our house the next day.  Around 4:00 we opened up the ropes course, and young and old took to the treetops!  I was pretty nervous at first, because I am afraid of heights, but I followed Jim, and that helped.  It was truly beautiful up there!  Thank you to all who were able to make our special day- I hope you had as much fun as we did!
