Hanging Out In Vegas (June 20-26)

After the wedding, little Aubster got sick.  Here she is happy as a peach after having a fever break and barfing.  She felt a lot better.

 Looking beautiful in her new dress!

 She was really hungry when Uncle Ryan and I took her to the grocery store to pick up some supplies.  She chewed through both of these.

 We visited the dolphins at the Mirage.  She loved it.

 Then took a nap.

 We also visited the Hershey store and the Sprinkles cupcake store with Aunt Connie and the boys.

 A recordable bunny Grandpa and Grandma gave Aubrey - she hugs it and then the recording starts - she chuckles at the sound of their voices.

 Happy after a good nights rest.

 Visiting the ducks at the pond.  Check out the three babies - super sweet.

 Visiting Connie and the boys before we left.

 Aubrey really likes them

 Adored Chloe too except when she licked her face.

 Hugs!

Jeff & Erica Get Married (June 18-19)

Aubrey loves playing in water

 How happy

Ready for bed at Grandma's

Getting our nails done for the wedding - Brynn was so excited

Pretty excited to get to the ceremony

It was definitely a Big Day for Jeff and Erica!

The groom looking pretty handsomely sharp

Smiles from Daddy and Aubrey

All of the kids loved dancing - so fun watching them

More of the fun wedding decor

Everyone walking down to where the wedding ceremony was performed

Shortly after this photo, we had a temporary scare in which the Erica's wedding ring fell into the grass.  Luckily, when I walked over I thankfully saw a glint in the grass and recovered it.  The boys and flowers girls were so cute.

Here comes the bride

Erica looks so beautiful!

Aubrey was so sweet with meeting them

How cute and adorable - just missing Elsie

Mr. & Mrs. Strickland

First dance.

All of us enjoyed lots of dancing!

I think this picture is a riot - Aubrey had a blast!

Cutting the cake - it is sweet how Kyle was so interested in this portion of the celebrations

Off they go for their honeymoon

The morning after the wedding - she was pretty tired.

Wedding BBQ and Disneyland!!! (June 14-18)

After the swim party but before the wedding BBQ, Grandpa and all three of the girls watched Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs together.  How cute is that?

 Brynn and Elsie helping to get ready for the BBQ.

 Nice set up.

 The boys helping Aubrey eat - super nice nephews.

 Playing some games so all of us could get to know both Jeff and Erica more.  It was really fun.

 There was even a scavenger hunt game for the kids to help out with.  Grandpa and Grandma are so fun and creative!

 Fashion show with their flower girl dresses.

 After the BBQ, we got ready to head on out to Disneyland.  Love these sunglasses.

 We headed out at like 2 in the morning - all of the kids were really good - Aubrey was excited but confused as to what we were doing.

 First views of Disneyland

 The boys loved switching who got to push the stroller.

 Excited sisters.

 This one is really funny: the sun is too bright for Kade, Aubrey has a serious pout on her face, Connor and I look fairly good though.

 Girl cousins.

 I love how Aubrey was clapping with excitement here.

 Patiently waiting in line

 Kade posed by this cannon - he looks so grown up

 At the Tangled re-enactment - the girls loved it.

 Everyone on the boat for Small World

 Before we left, these two boys showed how big and brave they are by going on the Matterhorn with us.  They were not scared at all and wanted to go again once it was over.

 Walking out she seemed so tired

 but once we arrived at the hotel lobby she was wide awake.

 She slept really well and was completely out even while Grandpa and Grandma and I were up moving about getting ready to leave in the morning. 

 Mom and I thought this was hilarious - Elsie looks like a sweet little angel but Aubs looks like a crazy woman who did some major partying the night before.  Thanks so much to Grandpa & Grandma for the awesome memories of Disneyland for the first time and with the cousins too.
