Last week was a little crazy but it was so much fun. Brian and Sarah's wedding reception was on Thursday evening. It was fun to dress all my kids up but that always gets a little crazy. Austin decided to go head first down the stairs in the garage as we are headed to the car. Despite the bloody swollen lip, he managed to keep his new shirt and tie blood free. (we sure lucked out) At the reception, we attempted to assign Dax and Kota the responsibility to collect the presents. They thought that was pretty cool for the first few minutes and then we spent the rest of the evening kicking them off of the elevator, bringing them back up the stairs, and chasing them out of the kitchen. But, they were sure having a good time. Aubriella looked like a little angel in her new dress and we enjoyed showing her off. She was so perfect and I don't remember her making a peep the whole night. We had such a good time seeing all of our friends and family. It sure was a beautiful reception.
Despite the late night, we were able to get up bright and early to head up to the temple for the wedding. Matt's parents were inspired to show up at our doorstep a half hour before we had to leave to offer some help. That sure was a blessing and helped us get out the door on time. They followed us up to the temple with Ashley to watch our kids while we attended the wedding. We are sure blessed to have family so willing to help. The spirit was so strong in the sealing room, and what a blessing to have my Grandpa Hal there to seal Brian and Sarah for time and all eternity. We hung around for pictures afterward and then took the Trax over to Jason's Deli to visit a little more with our family and Sarah's family. Even though we had my parents there to help us hold on to our kids, it was still a little crazy having 5 kids to keep track of. Wow what an adventure. I think next time we should bring a few leashed for the boys!
