CONGRATULATIONS MEGHAN AND GABE!!

Noah's only sister was married on October 11th!! It was a beautiful and perfect day! The church was beautiful, Meghan looked absoluteley gorgeous. They wrote a little something to say to each other and it was some of the sweetest things that I have ever heard. We are so happy for the two of them and can't wait to go to Nauvoo in a year. Thanks guys for letting us be part of your special day.

It was an especially fun weekend for us because we had some family friends from Utah stay with us. Bill, Bethy, Gage, and Emma came in on Thursday night and stayed until Monday. It was fun to watch Levi and Gage play. Bethy even helped me get rollers into Ruby's hair.

Another memorable time from the wedding was the dancing. I love dancing with Noah. There was a nice swing dancing tempo song on, and somehow neither one of were supervising our children, so I thought we could dance. I followed Noah out onto the dancefloor when suddenly he starts crazy dancing like I have never seen him crazy dance before. I can't describe it, but it was crazy enough that somewhere in the middle of his dance solo his tie was thrown off. Thanks honey for making me laught...extra hard! Needless to say when he started busting a move, I retreated from the dancefloor and laughed with everyone else from the sidelines.

This is Meghan and Ruby at the reception. You can see the beautiful canopy that was draped to cover the cultural hall ceiling. Everything was gorgeous!Meghan with her 5 brothers: Tim, Chris, Josh, Noah, and Nathaniel. Noah and his big brother Chris. Chris still lives in Chicago Heights where Noah grew up, so we don't get to see them very often. Aren't they cute? Levi was a ring bearer at the wedding. He did such a great job. I was a little nervous, because he was kind of a pill during rehersal, but he did absolutely perfect for the big event. His cousin, Isabella was a flower girl and they walked down the isle together. Doesn't he look dashing in his tuxedo? Ruby also got a new dres for the big event!

This is Levi with his cousin Olivia, who lives in Chicago. She is about a year younger than Levi, but they had a blast playing together for the weekend. This is a picture of the two of them sitting at Gram piano and drinking their pop.

Olivia has a brand new baby sister, sofia (congrats Chris and Meghan). Levi had seen pictures of baby sofia from when grams and yampa went to Chicago to visit her when she was born. He was SOOOOOOOOOO excited to see her. He talked about her all day long. Ruby was also in love with her. She would stare at her, and want to touch her.
