David got hitched!

My little brother David married his sweetheart on August 20th. Hannah and I flew out the week before so we could spend some extra time with family. Getting there was a bit of a pain. Our flight was supposed to leave Sunday afternoon, but when we got to the airport we were informed our flight was 3 hours late and they had to bump us off it because they couldn't get us a connecting flight to Sacramento that night. So Hannah and I had to wake up at 5am Monday morning to catch our 6:50am flight. Fun.

She did awesome the first flight to Seattle. But during our 2 hour lay over at that airport she was hard to control. I basically spent those hours chasing her around the airport. Sea Tac is a big airport. At one point in time I needed to use the restroom and she through the biggest tantrum including a Pterodactyl scratch to my face. Just a little embarrassing. And don't worry, she continued to be upset for part of the flight as well. Next time we are doing a direct flight. End of story.

So when we got to my parent's house and started getting ready for bed I was disheartened to find that my makeup bag, bathroom case, and hair straightener didn't make it back into my suitcase. Thank's to having to take those necessities out of my suitcase to get ready for my delayed flight. Thanks Alaskan Airlines. Luckily my mom was kind enough to share whatever makeup I needed and my dad ran to the store to get me a toothbrush, face wash, and deodorant. SO grateful for my Padres :-)

Wednesday night was Alaina's (David's Fiancé) Bridal Shower and it was so much fun. Thursday morning we all left for Oakland so that we could attend Alaina's endowment session in the temple. So amazing. A big thank's goes to my amazing sister-in-law's who watched Hannah for me :-) That night was the Rehearsal Dinner. My mom did an incredible job at planning and decorating for the occasion. There were about 50 people that attended and the food was delicious. It was the perfect dinner to pre-celebrate the beautiful day to follow.

Friday morning was their sealing. It was amazing. They both looked so gorgeous and most of all happy. Incredibly happy. We then took 983492803 pictures in front of the temple, haha. Hannah was sooooooo thrilled when it came time to take pictures, especially since it was right smack in the middle of her nap time. Hopefully she didn't ruin every picture she was in with that tearful little face. After the temple we all went to the Luncheon which was held at Mimi's Cafe. The food was great and it was fun to talk more with everyone who came to the temple that morning.

Jake flew in Saturday morning and my wonderful brother Paul was kind enough to pick him up at the airport on his way home from his friend's house in the Bay area. It was great to have Jake with us, Hannah and I missed him, a lot. That night was the reception. It was fun and beautiful. My favorite part was Alaina and David's first dance as husband and wife. It was so sweet. We had a wonderful time and I was so glad we got to be there to witness their Wedding Day. We wish you two all the happiness the world has to offer. Now they are in Hawaii, and I am soooo jealous :-)

Here are some pictures....I didn't have my camera at the Reception, but here are some pictures of the Rehearsal Dinner and at the Temple.
