A Great Trip to Utah

We got home from Utah this morning a little after 3 a.m. So...we're just getting going in our new life again! It has been so fun to be with Greg's family...and we're lucky enough to get them for a few more days. Greg's sister Chelsea--whose wedding we've just been to--is having an open house here in Michigan where her in-laws live. So, today we're picking up the rest of the clan from the airport.
Although I thought we'd make it up to Logan, between bridal showers, making table decorations, place cards, a video for the wedding dinner, etc. The days filled up and there just wasn't a chance to get away. I wish it would have worked out to see so many of you still in the area! We'll plan better and farther ahead next time!
The most disappointing part of the trip was my malfunctioning camera!!! After the first couple of days it just refused to work. We think we've gotten some good pictures taken of the actual wedding activities...but we need to pull them from other cameras. So...for this post you'll have to settle for a few pre-wedding moments.
Hope to post more soon.
Joshua and Nathan at the airport for our early morning flight there.
A display at Chelsea's bridal shower--that is her wedding dress!
Chelsea and Bethany--two of Greg's sisters.
Spent Saturday on the family's boat--this is Greg's oldest sister Emily.

Nathan and Joshua LOVED going fast in the water!

Emily, Jon (Chelsea's husband), Ethan (Greg's brother), and I all had a great time riding the "Hot Dog". The problem was...we just couldn't keep our balance! The ratio of pictures of us trying to get on the Hot Dog vs. the pictures of us actually riding on it is out of control! We'd get laughing so hard we either couldn't pull ourselves back up or would tip it again! Even though not entirely "successful" it was the best memory-made of the day!

Looks like you guys had a blast. Glad you had fun! Sounds like you helped decorate for the wedding. I'm sure it was beautiful.

That last picture of your laughing cracked me up. I have memories riding on the water weenee also. So much fun! I was bummed that we couldn't get together or even see each other but I am glad you had a great time.
