Wedding Weekend

What a weekend! We left Thursday morning & headed to San Diego to meet up with Jeff's family for his brother, Rob's, wedding. It was good to see everyone, we hadn't been together with all of his siblings for almost 2 years.

The weekend was very busy & we had 2 tired kiddos, but we had a good time. After a long flight we arrived & Jeff's parents & sisters picked us up from the airport & we went to meet up with a his twin & his family. Then we headed to lunch poor Hannah caught a short 15 minute nap, that seemed to do more harm than good. We then headed over to the hotel to check-in, & we met up with the groom, the bride, Katie, & her family. That evening the girl's all went out to dinner with the bride for a low key sort of bachelorette party.

Friday we were up at 4:30 in the morning, because the kids were confused with the time difference. Later that morning we headed out for the wedding in the San Diego temple. Jeff's youngest sister watched the kids so we could all attend the wedding, the wedding was lovely, the weather was lovely, as was the San Diego temple. After wedding pictures it was off to the wedding luncheon, & another afternoon without a nap for Hannah, but she did good. That night we crashed!! Hannah was out cold by 7:00 & I was out by no later than 7:30.

Saturday morning we were up early again... about 5:15 this time. After getting ready we checked out & went down to Ocean Beach to play for a little bit. We grabbed some lunch before heading over to El Centro for the reception. Luckily both kids were able to get some sleep on the drive, but they both couldn't have used a little more. We arrived at our hotel with just enough time for a quick change & then headed over to the reception. It was a a nice low key, fun reception.

Sunday morning we were up early, AGAIN. We went to church in the morning & then over to my brother & sister-in-law's house. She had all of us & the bride's family over for lunch & Rob & Katie opened all their gifts. It was a nice afternoon, with more beautiful weather!

This morning we were up early to get packed & on the road back to San Diego by 7:00 to catch our flight home. It was a long day, but the kids did great! Hannah played with her Disney figurines the whole flight & Milo slept for most of it. We got home in time enough to unpack everything, start laundry & have Hannah in bed by 7:00. What a whirl wind weekend! It was nice to share the special event with Rob & Katie, but it was equally nice to be home!
