So I flew up to Idaho on Thursday with Brad and Brea and some of her family to Idaho Falls for the open house, aka wedding reception part 2. (Allegiant flies direct from Idaho Falls to a tiny airport here in Mesa twice a week. So, yes, we were all on the same flight.)
It was nice to be home even though I was exhausted at first and trying to readjust to day shift hours. This reception felt a little more chill, at least for me. It was fun making thumbprint cookies with my mom and cutting up Hoagie buns with Brea's dad (Brian). My dad made coleslaw and beans and basically it all felt like a little family reunion. Candice's kids were in such good moods and were so cute the whole time.
When Brea came upstairs in her dress, Tate looked at her and said, "Are you CINDERELLA?!"
Awww...... so cute. In the top picture, Tate was so excited to get these flowers (they had been in the little swingset flower box and he had wanted to pick them so bad. He'd been warned, but then Perri did it for him and he was jumping up and down with excitement. And then running from everyone.

| This is Perri, Candice's littlest. She's usually adorable. And kind of hilarious. |

| Brea's Mom and my Dad. Notice our old school food processor. Good for coleslaw and cheese. We had to look it up on ebay for Brea's Mom. It's the "Salad King" manual food processor. It seems like a good Mormon thing to have. :-) |

Do you have to take the worst pictures of me possible to post on here? I guess old and ugly can't be photo shopped out of it huh? Rest of the post was great. We had fun, lot's of people, food was great and the evening was a lot less stressful than the one in AZ. Pressure of the wedding was over, getting to places by the Garmin, and figuring out how to get everyone home.....lot less effort in Idaho. Step back a 100 years in time and that happens.
