Weddings, Pirates and Corn Roasts!

This weekend we had the opportunity to see one of the girls who I taught in church as a Beehive and then later a Laurel as a beautiful bride!  Christine married her BFF Daniel and they could not be cuter together.  
The weather was perfect and the reception was beautiful.  




A few of these girls were my cute Laurels who are now in College!  The one right next to me in the brown dress is the next up to get married in September!  I am so proud of these girls!
The cute bridesmaids!
My darling grandma and grandpa were there!
The cake was some of the BEST we had ever had!

We also went to a fun pirate party!  Bryan couldn't figure out how to walk in the peg leg so he had to go with out.  BUMMER! 


The costume winners!


The parrot on Sara's shoulder seemed a little hungry so I fed it some cheese
We had another FUN ward activity... Corn Roast at the beach!  I must give props to Bryan for doing most of the work.  This was his idea and he got almost all the supplies and went to stake out our spot at 5:00 am saturday!  Good job Bry!










We had to have some S'mores there too!

This was such a fun weekend. Two nights out in a row! You and Bryan make great pirates. Seriously.

The pirate outfits are impressive. Maybe a little too natural for some :)
The corn roast was a lot of fun! Great idea! The corn was amazing too - I confess, I had 2!

You really knew how to pull off that pirate costume- wow! Grams & Gramps look adorable!

You look so saucy eating your cake at the reception. Are you trying to seduce the camera or what???!!! Bryan does too as he's taking a bite into that chicken? You must be a match made in heaven!

You look like one hot wench Summer! How fun...that makes me miss the old ward. I have to add that I love corn roasts, they rock!

I'm sad I couldn't make the pirate party or the corn roast. Organizing the protect marriage stuff is taking the life out of me. But well worth it;)

I thought we had to be close to you guys!! I thought wouldn't it be funny if we ran into each other.

You played it cool with the lady talking to you like that. I would have just looked at her and said... "are you joking...REALLY...REALLY lady..."
