So this is to follow up Annaliese's blog about Richard's wedding with pics. We got a new camera for our anniversary so we took way more pics than we normally would. We did some hiking the first day at Ilahee park. Thursday was Richard's birthday we went with him to go get his tux and shop for a wedding present for his bride to be. (I've never seen Richard's romantic side, I'm still getting used to it) had some Thai food that mom brought home from Seattle and went to the Stake Center to put up decorations for the reception. Afterwards we all went to Shari's (for those who don't live in seattle its like an all night restraunt place like Denny's or Ihop) for dessert to celebrate Richard's 22nd birthday. Friday was the big day. We took the ferry over to the temple, it was a really nice ceremony. Did the picture thing, ate buffet lunch and went straight to the reception. It was nice to see all the family at the reception, wish I could have hung out with my cousins more, I'll have to plan better next time. Thanks to Aunt Beth for letting us stay at her house while she was trying to pack it up. Saturday I went with my sisters to see Twilight ( I thought it was pretty good overall, a few cheesy parts) and Ryan and Orson saw the Bond movie, we helped move the couches into Richard and Becky's new apartment and did some shopping in Silverdale. Sunday we saw Paul and Rachel and the kids before we had to take off to the airport. It was a quick trip, I wish we could have stayed longer for Thanksgiving. Also, I haven't figured out how to post the pictures very well yet so they are all out of order but I can't figure out how to move them now that they are here so sorry.

hey diane, all the pictures are cute, Richard and Becky looked so happy at the wedding, i'm glad he's happy! I love the blue shirt picture too, I thought that was so funny. Especially that uncle david was sad that he was left out:) I actually liked twilight(movie) too, it was cheezy but still a pretty good! I think the next one they'll do better.

hmm. that's too bad the blue shirt pic didn't turn out....probably cause you guys only have the V8. i could have loaned you mine. :)

It was great seeing you guys at the reception:) You look gorgeous:) We are going down to Utah in the first of January- so we will have to meet up:)

-I don't like the Blu-ray player because it is tooooo realistic looking- it takes away all the movie magic- it looks like the British channel or a biogrpaphy- especially if you have the blu-ray player, the HDMI cables and a Blu- ray DVD to watch- it is too much- my mom and sisters agree with me- Dave & Johannes are 50/50 about it, ofcourse my Dad loves it:) If you get one- use a regular DVD in it- it makes it more enjoyable to watch!0 I feel like I got jacked on my Christmas present- j/k:)
