Best Day Ever

Why?  You ask.  Because Bryce got married.  It has been such an exciting thing to see Bryce fall in love with Shonni. She is perfect for him and perfect for our family.  Shonni has more energy than all of us combined, and is fun loving and easy to be around.  Bryce has had a lot of pressure for many years from all of his sisters.  We always said to him, "don't mess it up--we have to love her!"  I don't know if there are bigger fans of my in-laws than myself. Jenny, well, I honestly don't remember life before her.  Dave either.  I was so young when they joined the family.  Jenny has always taken me on as a true sister.  And Dave takes great care of me.   Bryce and I are incredibly close, and living so far away was hard when I started to see how much he adored this girl I had never met.  But when Bryce brought her to meet us, we were instant friends, and I am so glad she is now my sister.
It was a cold crisp day, and the weather was perfect for pictures.
Mom felt well, and it showed in her smile and step.

One of my favorite moments of the day was when Shonni yelled "yea, I'm married!!!" It was darling!
Mom and I.  We look a lot alike, don't you think?
Merilee, and her movie star family.  They are picture perfect.
Our family.
The Petersons.  Minus Emmeline and Tess.  Look at those boys, they are hunks!

It was a great afternoon.  I've decided afternoon weddings are the way to go!

I would have to say that your family is movie star quality as well. . . .
