The wedding...

I asked around for some pictures from the trip home to Utah for the wedding. This one on the left of Dan was not really what I expected to receive from that request. This is the number one reason why I am not okay with dogs, especially strange dogs licking me.

He's a very cute dog, so I tried to get him to sit still for a few minutes for a picture, but "obedient" isn't exactly the adjective you would use to describe Dan. The minute the camera came out he started squirming around and trying to get away. So none of the pictures really turned out all that great.

As for the pictures I got from the wedding this one of me with my niece is my favorite (thank you Fuller). I was charged with watching her and her two younger brothers during the wedding ceremony. She was fine, the baby was great, Johnny was...well, a different story. This is the picture taken of him in the waiting room (before we found out you can't take pictures in there) during one of his more reverent moments.

After the ceremony when we were all outside waiting for the bride & groom Johnny sort of disappeared. We spotted him out climbing around in the shrubbery in front of the temple. Once his mom saw him he came out of the bushes, but apparently that was only temporary. A few minutes later I heard some rustling around in these short little bushes. I couldn't see anything and the rustling stopped for a second. When it started again and I looked back over, and there was Johnny pulling himself up out of a shrub that he'd just fallen in...with a huge grin on his face. He's the only kid I've seen that will faceplant in a bush and come up smiling, but scream like it's the end of the world if you try and make him sit still for 5 seconds.

Anyhow, moving along, here's a picture of the girls, with all of us squinting outside of the temple, with the happy bride:

Here are a couple of random shots I've stolen from Fuller of the reception:

I was going to put more up, but after closer inspection I realize that it's hard to get a picture that does everyone justice. I figure the group picture I have up there is not really the most flattering shot for any of us, so I'll just leave it at that.
