Rehearsal Dinner

The rehearsal dinner was at a restaurant on the resort. It was a really nice place. The bride and mother of the bride.


There was a flutist playing during dinner. The food was exellent!
Shannon had prepared some things to roast Becky and Rob. I had written a poem, here she is reading the poem and Cali helping hand out the things.


Another wedding came in to eat for their reception at the same time. They were a lively crowd from Las Vegas and were having a spirit competition between the tables. They invited us to join we sang Baby Got Back and did a little dance. After their tables doing 3 rounds and our one song the restaurant asked us to keep it down.



Becky and Rob's Wedding

The morning of the wedding, Ross, Jim and I went on the jungle bike tour at the resort. They took us through the resort and down the horse trail where we stopped at the stables and saw some monkeys.
They were really friendly and dug through people's pockets and drank out of one guys water bottle. They would even climb on you if you held your hand out to them. Jim was jealous of the monkeys when they were climbing on other people then he finally got his turn.


Here was the chapel where the wedding was.

After the wedding it was still raining so we rode in the covered golf cart to the bar.
We had to wait at the martini bar for aout an hour before the dinner and reception started.
The dinner was really good. The buffet was set up in the back and the tables were set up in a horseshoe shape with the bride and groom at the front. There was an open area in from of the DJ where we danced. One of the waiters came out with a tray of shots on his head.
He danced with some of the ladies for awhile before starting the congo line.


After the congo line, they stopped us and gave us some shots.
They poured the shot in your mouth, then grabbed your head to shake it around.

Then we created a bride for everyone to walk through.

A little bit of dancing.

The DJ put on the IPOD so we could play the second line during the reception.

Everyone joined in.





A flaming shot for the bride and groom.
I don't think she liked it.
The last dance.
The party was over and we had to leave the restaurant. Here is Becky after announcing that the party was over.

Labor Day Weekend in Colorado

I went to Colorado Springs this weekend to see Shannon, Ross and the kids. Saturday night Shannon, Kendal and I went to the Hot Air Ballon Classic to see the the balloon glo. Here we are awaiting the glo.



Here is the balloon glo, not quite what we thought. The balloons weren't inflated, just the baskets shooting fire.
Kendal wantd to take some pictures, this one turned out pretty good for a three year old.


Sunday Kayden got baptized.
After church we went to the park for a picnic.
The kids wore their new saints outfits from Grandy.







Kayden got into goose poop, oops.
Sunday night we went to Red, Hot and Blue and BBQ restaurant.
Kendal ate her own ribs.
And double fisted with the applesauce.

What a face?? We walked to and from the restaurant.
Monday morning we went to Green Mountain Falls to hike.

The whole family.
Check out this bridge we had to cross, made of rocks and trees...SCARY!
Here we are crossing the bridge.
We made a stop to eat some snacks and let the kids out of the packs.

Kayden fell asleep on the way down, caught this pic in mid drip.
Kendal made a friend on the way back to the car.


Kendal wanted to take some more pictures here is one of the gazebo where some people were fishing.

She wanted to take one of me too. Maybe a future photographer.
