Austyn's Country Chic Wedding

My cousin Albert's son, Austyn, got married on May 30th in San Luis Obispo at Madonna Ranch.  Sienna and I flew in for the event and had a great time celebrating with the family.  It was the first time I ever wore jeans to a wedding, but that was the requested attire as it was a "wrangler" and "cowboy" themed shindig.

Here is the ceremony site where we sat on haybales.  We were asked to not take pictures during the ceremony, so you won't see any of that.

This is the door to the reception area/barn.

This is my cousin Albert and his son/groom Austyn.

The bride and groom make the rounds!

 



 

They get ready for their first dance, and then everyone starts dancing!

The country décor was so cute!

The barn was adorable!

Prom 2017

Spenser and Brenna went to the Prom on Saturday night, held at Salt River Fields (a baseball stadium).  Here are some before Prom pics, as well as their dinner location, hosted by one of the moms.

The photo location was CRAZILY overcrowded.  Note for next time, go where no one else is going!

 

  Here is Buddy putting on her corsage....

 

and Brenna pinning his boutonniere.

The lighting was either too bright or too dark, and it was tough to get a picture without random people in it.  But we still got some cute ones. 

 

Here is Brenna's family:  her dad Dave, sister Drew, and brother Ryan.

 



 

And here are the kids with their mom, Sharice. 

Dinner was hosted by one of the moms in the prom group.  Isn't this a sweet set up?

 



Their backyard was a better picture place than the park with hundreds of people!

The kids enjoyed a lovely dinner and then headed up to Scottsdale for the dance.

 



 

Spenser and Brenna were back to the house around 11:45.  They changed into regular clothes and hung out for a couple hours before her dad picked her up, sometime around 2 am.

 

They had fun!

 

Easter 2017

Sienna came home from ASU to help us celebrate Easter.  We went to church as always, and hit a donut shop for breakfast before coming home to make enchiladas for Easter supper.  It was a great day.  And of course, it wouldn't be complete without a photo shoot.  Here are all the pictures, silly ones included!
