Awwww what a crazy, beautiful, fun, INSANE weekend! LOL! We never have uneventful roadtrips in this family and this one certainly didn’t fail to disappoint! Whew! I have been taking the last couple days off just to recoup! LOL!

We left on Friday afternoon, and the drive was GREAT! The weather was gorgeous and just having the girl bonding time with my mom and sister was wonderful! We checked into our hotel and went to visit family, it was so nice to see them! I always forget how much fun I have with my cousins and I really enjoyed myself!

On Saturday morning at 6 AM haha we got quite the wake up call, someone had burned a waffle in the breakfast area and set off the smoke alarms for the whole building!! LOL! You should have seen everyone shuffling around half awake trying to decide whether to evacuate or not! haha Lets just say if it was a serious fire, we all would have been smoked!

Saturday afternoon we headed to the Richland temple for the wedding. The temple was beautiful and I didn’t waste one second snapping away at the building. The wedding was also wonderful. These two people deserve to be together forever and had been through so much to get to this point, it is something I would not miss for the world!

After the wedding we started pics. I have to admit, I was more than a little bit nervous. LOL! I did my best, but believe me I have no aspirations to do this professionally. It was fun to have a different subject other than Lexi though! I think most of the pictures of my Aunt and Uncle turned out really good…. the group shots… eh not so much! LOL! I am just not so good at keeping an eye on the details, like someone’s face being covered. LOL.

Saturday night was scary for us. My sister who has been struggling with an undiagnosed illness for the past 2 yrs, had an episode where her entire body when rigid and numb, and she was barely breathing. We had to call 911 from the hotel room. I have to admit I have never been so scared for her. She has been so brave through all of this, I really am amazed by how strong she is. She is OK. After a couple milder episodes they were able to get it under control and release her. She is seeing a neuroligist this week, and I am really praying at this point that they are able to at least find out what is wrong and treat her. The drs at the hospital she was taken to suspect it is MS. I know that is really scary, but she is so brave about it. She just wants to find out what it is so she can live her life the best she can. I love you sis and I am praying for you!

Sunday we got on the road later than we expected due to her hospital stay. But it gave us some more time to visit with our family. When we finally did hit the road, the weather was AMAZING! I fell in love with that blue blue sky and spent most of the drive home snapping pictures! LOL!
