Pull up a chair and enjoy the post. At the end is the latest big news of our family.
Two of my darling nephews... and why are we there?
" Wuv, twue wuv... is what bwings us togever today"
Getting her nails done pretty
Setting the stage
The tulle transformers
Time for the ladies to get ready.
As everyone is getting ready Amber asks for a glue gun. I was a bit
puzzled at what craft she would want to do on her wedding.... flowers
for your hair! Sunflowers make great hair ornaments and last some hours.
All you have to do is glue a hair pin on the back. Isn't that genius?!?
Pictures of them getting their pictures taken
The Hansen Siblings
And the rest of the lovely family
The boys arrive
...along with the movie stars Mr. and Mrs Brad Steele
See over there? That is a no go zone
Where the men wait for the right time...
All right folks, it's time!
The procession begins
The moment arrives
Anticipation mounts
The bride has come
Even though it is a little blurry I love the look they are sharing
from Melissa's angle
The radiantly beautiful bride
Praying a blessing over the new couple by their fathers
You may now kiss the bride
(unfortunately the only picture I got of them kissing was super blurry. Just think of a sweet fairy tale)
"...As the bridegroom rejoices over the bride,
So shall your God rejoice over you"
The new Mr. and Mrs. Erik Hansen dancing their way out
Right after they played a video of the story of how they met. It is such a beautiful tale God's love and faithfulness and the reward that comes when you wait and trust in Him. You can view it here
Instead of a cake they had many different pies
This picture represents the fun time we had dancing to end the night.
For those of you with good memories (or that just scrolled to the bottom of the page to see what the news is) the latest big change for us is that we are moving again! Our year contract runs out the end of the month and they wanted to raise the rent. The Lord led us to a place the first day we started looking at places. A Victorian type apartment in the center of town that needs a bit of renovating. With the help of our wonderful friends we have already started packing and will be moving and fixing the place up over the month. I will try and get some pictures of the place up before my computer gets packed.
You may be wondering what we did the rest of September. We had an amazing family vacation together in Utah and Jordan did such a great post (even if he did leave out a few of the best pictures IMHO) and since I took half the pictures anyway, it will be like reading my blog except with his wonderfully funny commentary (any of his pokes at me is his way of saying I'm his favorite sister-in-law and wishes we lived even closer... or something like that) Go check it out: http://niednagel.com/blog.htm
