Open House

We had a beautiful open house (thanks to Scott's family) in Maple Valley, Washington. It was a perfect evening in Seattle at Scott's parents lake house. I am so grateful for all the work they put into having a relaxed, fun open house.

Jennie made this... isn't she crafty?

Aww Ashley's famous chocolate chip cookies!!!

Family :)

So many helpers to make this day work!

Scott's cute grandparents! They traveled a long way just for us. I love them already!

We miss you Mike and Lacey!

Reception

The reception was held at my parent's house in Carlsbad, California. It was perfect August weather. I was so grateful to be surrounded by so many family and friends. The food was amazing, and the music was perfect (thanks Kanahele family for providing both).

First dance to "Is This Love" by Bob Marley.

This is Natalie.

This is Jeff.

They got married December 29, 2009... Don't catch the bouquet/garter if you don't want to get married!

And here it is... The big day. the day we were sealed for time and all eternity in the San Diego temple. The day we became MR & MRS. The best day of my life.

My cute nephews!!!

Thanks friends for coming from New York, Utah, Seattle, and Hawaii. It meant the world to Scott and me.

I love you.
