A Wedding (Austin & Claire)

Earlier last week my family and I headed up to Ann Arbor, MI to prepare for, and attend a cousin’s wedding. It was a fun filled week, catching up with “old” friends, seeing relatives and meeting new faces.

We left last Thursday and arrived back home late, late yesterday evening :)   Friday was the rehearsal, and Saturday they spoke their vows. Sunday was Church and recuperation, and Monday we departed. -It was a quick trip, but I always enjoy going away and this trip was no exception! -


Here are some pictures!

It's sad saying goodbye to such good friends & family! But we got to bring Seth (a cousin) home with us, so that made parting with everyone a little easier :) Also, we had some "little presents" waiting for us when we got back home (I'll be posting about them soon!)....



TTYL,



Notes: A huge thank you to the Erickson's who were very hospitable to us. Thanks to Hadassah for sending me so many pictures. And Congrats to the happy couple: Austin & Claire :)           ::::Click to enlarge pictures::::

Beautiful. The colors were so elegant :)

You must have had so much fun!

Actually, we're getting ready to head down and see OUR cousins tomorrow (remember Samantha from B.Y.C.?) ...it's always fun to goof around with cousins.
