The Reception

 The reception was held in my parents backyard.  It was the most beautiful wedding I have attended.  And even the prettiest of the wedding that have been held in their backyard.
Me and Das's were suppose to have our reception in the backyard, but it rained that day so we moved it inside.  They had this neat table set up with different flavored suckers in each jar. 
The food was delicious and so unique.  Megan is from Idaho, and her parents own a potato farm.  So they had a potato bar set up along with fruit, salad, and differnt kinds of bread and cheeses. 


Everyone was of course fighting over Dallon.  He slept through the whole thing.

 They had a dance floor set up on the basketball court.  Lynette started off the dancing with her oldest son Mike and Megan with her dad.  So sweet!
 They've got some moves!
Proud papa snuggling his son while his other three ran around wild. If it wasn't at my parents house, we would not have let them go wild.

 They lit sparklers to send the happy couple on there way.  Logan had fun with his.  He kept saying "hot" and tried to blow it out. He's so smart!

Getting ready to leave.  Logan was ready to get out of there.  It really was a perfect night.  Congrats Mike and Megan!

The M&M wedding

Yesterday my nephew Micheal got married in the Draper Temple.  Unfortunately I wasn't able to attend the sealing but Das was.  I heard it was beautiful.  Das had to get back to work, so I attended the luncheon alone.
The luncheon was held at Willow Creek Country Club.  My sister Lynette and her husband put these beautiful flower arrangements together.  The wood they cut from a tree up at our cabin.   
After we ate, a few people stood up to share some memories.  And then my favorite part happened.  Mike's 4 brothers and his only sister stood up and sang them a song.  We also watched an adorable video with pictures of Mike and Megan put together with an interview of how they met/first date/first kiss.  It was so cute and funny.  I had no idea my nephew was so funny. 
Then my next favorite part was Mike singing to Megan.  I don't know if it was the hormones or what, but I was in tears.  It was so great.  It brought back memories of my own wedding and the love Das and I have for each other.  I am so happy that Mike has found that kind of love.  We are so excited for Megan to be part of our family.  She is perfect for Mike and we absolutely adore her as well.
