Wedded Bliss

We made a quick trip to Portland this weekend for the wedding of our friends Bret and Kate. It was a beautiful wedding in Happy Valley. Aptly named. We're so happy for the two of them.

First though, we drove up yesterday and spent the night with Amy and Lucy. The girls alway have so much fun together, though this time I had to edit what I put on the blog. For most of our time together all three girls were wearing nothing but skivvies.

Libby takes a very serious (though imaginary) phone call.

Then, she stopped cold to tell me about a boy in her class who has eye medicine because his eye itches. Great. Here's (knock on wood) hoping we don't spend Thanksgiving weekend treating a family case of pink eye.

To trim or not to trim the bangs. That is the question....

Lucy tries Libby's pillow pet to see if it's a good fit. Looks like a winner.

Amy made a delicious quiche for breakfast this morning, and we played at the park while it baked.

Follow the leader.

Libby helps get Lucy strapped in.




A hungry crew.

Worn out.

Mr. and Mrs. Larson.

The picture I didn't get was of the ring bearer, Bret's (and now Kate's) dog Bri. When asked if they'd be exchanging rings, Bret said, "Yes.", and then turned and yelled, "Bri, come!" Bri came running and I got teary. It was significant because she's the reason they met. Kate is Bri's vet. Does it get better than that?

The cake. If you look closely at the bottom tier, you can see where Peyton stuck three of her fingers right before I snapped the picture. Then, in response to my gasp, she burst into loud wails while attracting all kinds of attention to what she'd done. Oops. We really should keep a better eye on our kids. Or at least teach them to be a little more stealthy.

Libby tries to blow out a candle just before we headed home.

Congratulations Bret and Kate! We are so happy for you guys! Here's wishing you a lifetime of friendship, happiness and love.
