Christina's Wedding






Today was quite the eventful day. I got up early to go to a training meeting, and then came home to get myself and Ryan ready for Christina (my sister-in-laws) wedding. She got married early this afternoon in the Bountiful Temple. It was a beautiful ceremony and it was great to feel the spirit in the Temple. It makes me feel so peaceful and makes me want to attend the temple more often. Anyways, after that was over we had pictures at the Temple and my mom was so good to watch Ryan and bring him to us after the ceremony was over.
All of the boys had blue boy ties. Ryan looked so cute in his. He did not like getting it on, however. He screamed and screamed. But it was all worth it in the end Then we went to Erics parents house until we needed to leave for the reception. While we were at the temple we were talking to Nate & Rachel and we got on the subject of shaving heads (Nate's head is shaved). We then thought how funny it would be to shave Eric's head after the ceremony and go to the reception with a bald head. So we decided to do it. Eric does look really good bald. Nate shaved his head and at the beginning just shaved the top part so he had the horseshoe look going on. Everybody tried to talk us into keeping it like that for the reception, but I was a no go. But Eric does look good, good thing too, because I think that he'll be that way sooner than later. It's was great because my brother in law Nate is bald and my brother in law Michael always has a shaved head, but he has never bic'd it.
So, today was the big day. They all had a nice smooth head. It was a beautiful reception center, but we were there for so long that the evening did tend to drag for me. I think especially because Ryan was so tired and there really wasn't anywhere to lay him down. So, he was just not thrilled the whole time. All in all, however it was a gorgeous day, except for the cold weather and rain.

I love the pictures. Especially of cute little Ryan. He's growing up!

It's nice that Eric can go bald. I'm not sure what I would do if Wayne shaved his head like that. He has such a full head of hair. It looks like the wedding was nice and Ryan survived. That's always a bonus!

Ha! That is awesome. Eric looks great bald! I love that he just did it totally spur of the moment. You guys really are the cutest little family!

So my favorite picture is of Ryan's so sad face with the tie. So cute. I can't believe Eric shaved his head! Ben is just growing his out again. I think this might just inspire him to do it again!

Trevor was looking at the pictures. It was so funny. The last picture with the three of them showing their bald heads, Trevor said, "Look at all of the grandpa's."
