Elise's Wedding

I can't believe my youngest sister is married. It was a wonderful weekend - I loved being with our whole family and meeting the Finlaysons. I've only included a handful of pictures - wish I had taken more...

Coming out of the temple - my favorite part because of the pure joy on their faces.



The youngest nieces waiting for their Aunt to come out of the temple.

This face kills me. 


 When they came out, they were swarmed by all the kids - very cute.

Gorgeous flowers to complement her choice of navy and green 


The sisters at the beautiful reception site:

All of the Peterson nieces and nephews:

Waiting for the ring ceremony to begin - the perfect form of entertainment, especially with cousins:


The beautiful couple:

Sam surprised Elise with a song from her nieces and nephews:

The girls found the candy, gelato, and carmel apples very quickly:



Rainey did get dinner at some point:


Waiting for Sam and Elise to cut the cake - love the anticipation on their faces:

Last Saturday, we had the chance to walk with our dear friends to honor their daughter, who is cancer free now! It was a big event at Sugarhouse Park. The girls loved it! And who can pass up Cinderella?

 

We went to princess story time at the library:


And we made gingerbread cookies in Halloween shapes - they still talk about it and ask to do it again. I tell them we can do it at Thanksgiving - need a bit of space between such an involved activity. =)

And here's our most recent family picture from the Mitchell reunion in August. We got one at the wedding, but it keeps failing to upload onto this site...

We're excited about the arrival of a baby brother in December. Kevin and I are loving this stage with 2 big girls, and we are making sure to take advantage of the time now before our lives get rocked with #3.

Beautiful wedding! Looks like so much fun! You can hardly tell your pregnant in your pictures. Also, what a great family photo! Everyone looks so fabulous. Can't wait to see what a Kev/Leah combo boy looks like! :)

Hey, Elise's Wedding is looking just brilliant. I really like the simple yet eye catching theme. Even we both have the desire of a perfect garden wedding reception so are trying to find some chic ye affordable wedding venues in NYC for our small ceremony plus the day time reception party.
