Today was Sadie and Jon's wedding, the one we have been waiting for a long time. We ran a few errands this morning like the library, smiths and gas. We then came back to get ready for the wedding. Natalie was excited to shower with me and I tried to rush as much as possible to get the boys lunch, and my hair and makeup done and Natalie dressed and myself dressed. It was a pretty rushed 2 hours. But we did it and we were on time. El's mom came over right at 12:45 so we left at about 12:50 to Evanston Wyoming. An hour and a half later, we got there with a bit of extra time to get dressed since the bride was running late. Once we were dressed, we took all the wedding pictures with the line. It was the first time I was in a line and I loved the experience. Sadie is one of my very very best friends and I just adore her, so it was such an honor and fun experience to be in her line. I just loved it. It was also so much fun because we got to hang out with Sunshine and Sarah and Lyman and Mark and TJ and Jon. It was such an incredible day. Natalie was so incredible the whole time and just had so much fun! Once the pictures were done, we had a bit of down time, and then the pre wedding reception lunch for the wedding party. They had a soup bar that was delicious and a plethora of breads and spreads which I was excited for. I ate entirely too much bread and probably about 5 pieces of cake. Im not even exaggerating! It was all so good! Sunshine and I got to talk for nearly an hour and a half and then the whole group ate together and we took a group picture right before the line started, which I stood in. Natalie stood in it with me and got to have fun holding the bouquet. She as really the perfect little girl, which makes me so excited to take her to Hawaii with us! The wedding was amazing, Sadie was beautiful as always. El played some amazing music and sung two songs. He sung Over The Rainbow by Izz for the father daughter dance and blew it away and then he sang All Of Me by John Legend for the bride and grooms dance and also blew that one out of the water. He got so many amazing compliments and so many people had no idea he could even sing, so it was such a pleasant surprise for the whole night. Then there was dancing, and more cake and more pictures. The grooms men did over Sadie and Jon's car with paint and cookies and saran wrap. It was amazing. When they walked out to see the surprise we all stood on either side of the walk way and blew bubbles at them while everyone cheered and clapped and whistled. It was an epic night! There is a plethora of pictures below. So here they are

The whole group together. I think we have all in one way or another been in eachother's weddings. We've been friends for something like 6 years. We got married first, and Mark and Lyman were there, we were there for Mark and Sunshines weddings, TJ and Sarah's wedding, Jon and Amanda's wedding (none of us liked Amanda at all) and now for Jon and Sadie's wedding. The only one who was missing from this group was Jared (who we also went to his wedding) Lyman, you are next buddy! We can't wait! These are some of the very best friends in my life! I love them all from the bottom of my heart and know that we will be friends for our entire lives and will see each other through many other major life moments! Love you guys!

these guys
This was Nautica, Daren and Sheena's little girl. She was a bit older than Natalie (only by months) and they had so much fun, running and dancing for probably three hours straight!
these four are the very best of friends! Jon would be in this if he wasn't dancing with his bride!
Nautica wanted to take a picture with Sadie, because she thought she was a princess, and Natalie already thinks Sadie was a princess, so they got their picture with Princess Sadie
