Tehachapi

We went up to Tehachapi for Jeff and Justine's open house. Kamryn had fun hunting for lizards with Nana. Macy helped me make cupcakes for Grant's birthday party.Jeremy studied for his upcoming Board exam all day, so we took the kids swimming. While at the pool, Kamryn got stung by a bee for the first time. She was not a happy camper. We headed over to the open house later on. It was so nice in the Lange's backyard. It was decorated so well! Afterwards my parents took the kids back to go to bed and we hung out with everyone and watched Jeff and Justine open their presents.

Ring ceremony and reception

After the wedding, we ate lunch at the temple. We decided to try to find a shoe store to replace my shoes since they were breaking. We ended up in a ghetto area of Oakland and Jeremy didn't realize it. So with the insistance of Jason, Denise, and myself we kept on driving. We bought some things to decorate Jeff and Justine's car and headed to the reception. They had a lovely ring ceremony. During dinner, Jared, and both sets of parents gave great speeches. They were pretty messy feeding each other the cake, which is always fun to watch. We only got to dance a little before it was over. As Jeff and Justine went to their car we all threw lavender at them. Jeremy threw it straight at Jason and got him pretty good, it was funny! Then they were off to their honeymoon. We all went back to our hotel and played Loaded Questions in the lobby. It was a quick but fun little reunion!

Wedding weekend

Jeremy and I flew up to Oakland on Friday, August 3. After picking up Jason and Denise from the airport we headed over to our hotel and met up with everyone. We ate lunch at Applebee's and then went back to our hotel where the kids went swimming. After that we noticed that our rental car had been hit! Geez, on our first day! That night we had a great dinner with Justine's family at her church. After that, the boys played basketball for Jeff's bachelor party. The rest of us went back to our hotel. The next day was the day of the wedding. Justine's dress was beautiful, and it was so neat to see all of the Waldram's there in the sealing room.
