Mawige, Mawige is vat bwings us togeva today

Brent and Brenda got married yesterday on October 2nd! It was a wonderful day in so many ways. The weather was perfect - sunny and about 68 degrees, Brenda looked absolutely gorgeous, everything went very smoothly - no surprises or disasters, many friends and family members came from all over the country, my kids looked so darling (yes, that is very important), the temple ceremony was inspiring (Earl Jackson who married Porter and I happened to marry them too), and mostly they were so happy and in love!!! The whole day was so much fun!!! They got married at 1 in the afternoon and had a big wedding dinner after! I think this wedding was the funnest one I have ever been to! The dinner was delicious, they had a fun wedding video, everyone who spoke did an excellent job, Courtney and Jake got up and recited the wedding lines from The Princess Bride - which was awesome, and the highlight was probably dancing afterwards! Congrats to Brent and Brenda!!! We love you!
My little stud muffins!!! Or should I say...... GQ????
Courtney looked so beautiful! Everyone who passed her by stopped her to tell her how pretty she was! Courtney looked like a princess!!! Her hair turned out so fun!!We took these pictures at the temple before the wedding started.

Best buds!

We love your little Stud Muffin! Louis says that he wants to have a "Tanner" one day. What a cute kid! Courtney's hair was so beautiful (as always)! You'll have to show me all of your hair tricks when Baylee gets older. Everyone looked so nice, especially the wedding! How beautiful!!! We are so happy for Brent and Brenda!
