June 12th- MIRACLE WEDDINGS

Yes, I did say wedding(s)! Megan and Aaron's and Mark and Mickelle's wedding. (just to clarify for some, my sister Megan and Russ' brother Mark) Two very important weddings on the same day! Well all I can say it I've been trying to have faith and praying that things will work out well! My prayers were answered, and apparently someone had help me with their faith for miracles. All week long I drove down to Sandy to help my mom prepare for Megan's wedding in the yard. It was a little hard because, as many of you may know, its been POURING RAIN-monsoon season her in the Salt Lake Valley. Well we pulled it off and was ready for the wedding despite the rain. I say miracle weddings because you all saw how Friday was-BEAUTIFUL! Both weddings had the perfect weather!! And both weddings were perfect!! Both brides looked absolutely beautiful in their white dresses. Grooms were handsome too!! This is how the day played out for us. We dropped Whit off at Ginny Gregory's house around 9a-thanks again Gin for watching her-Then we went to the Draper temple and watched Mark and Mickelle married. What a powerful thing to watch two people joined together for eternity! Outside the temple we took pictures in front of that beautiful new temple. Now tell me if you'd be mad??? I was furious for them.....they walk outside for pictures and found out that their photographer had not shown up yet. Luckily Amy (our sister in law married to Russ' bro Andy) had her nice camera and does a beautiful job. Also Mickelle's uncle who use to do wedding pics had his camera and the two of them took pictures. Apparently the photographer had the wrong day. Who does that??? After finally getting a hold of her she showed up. I would actually have her fired if it were me. I was fuming for her. But they were both sweet and on cloud nine-good for them!!! That was my one advise for them-something will always go wrong on the wedding day! Theirs were pictures, mine was forgetting my dress, ripping my dress, and leaving our new in laws at the restaurant with no keys to get to the wedding. Hee hee! Anyway, after pictures we picked up Whit and went to the lunch in. That turned out very nice, and sadly we had to leave a little early. We rushed over to my Mom's house and at 2p (more like 2:30p) Megan and Aaron were joined together. It was so fun to see how happy she was and how beautiful she looked. Jayme was the flower girl and Sean the ring bearer. All the little girls were in this darling pink dresses! The yard was amazing. I cant believe how hard my Mom worked and how beautiful the wedding turned out. After the marriage we had the lunch in and pictures, then it was off to Mark and Mickelle's reception in Lindon. We took some pics, visited, and really enjoyed the ice cream bar they had-mmm yummy! Then I left Russ and Whit and I went back to Megan and watched her cut the cake and leave for the night. I also took some cute pics of Whit as well in her cute outfit. Each one of us had to change outfits for each wedding, so Whit was really happy I'm sure when she got her PJ's on and didn't have to change for the rest of the night. She was happy the whole day, despite all the changing and running around! Mom and Dad survived too! Right when Megan and Aaron left we started taking things in, and no kidding after the last picture was taken in, it start to rain. Two minutes after Mark and Mickelle left in their car, they got rained on up there. MIRACLE WEDDINGS!! Thanks Dad-I don't know how you pulled it off, but you must know some pretty powerful people up there! Not to mention the faith of people down here!! MIRACULOUS!
