San Clemente



It seems I'm getting so behind on my postings and that's a big pet peeve for me. I'll try and catch up.

Yea me! I was able to go to San Clemente, CA for the weekend and share the wedding festivities of my darling niece Heather and her new handsome hubby Taylor. I flew there on a Friday and came home on Sunday with no kids AND no hubby. Pure bliss!
On Friday evening I attended the rehearsal dinner that was held at a cute little Italian restaurant. It was hilarious because the windows of the restaurant were facing a Metro link train track and it came right in front of us with only about 3 feet between the train and the window so it looked like the train was coming toward you. It was so fun to meet up with family, especially my brother in law Gary who was married to my sister Patsy. I haven't seen him for years.

Heather and Taylor were married in the Newport Beach Temple on Saturday morning which was so gorgeous. That evening their reception was held at her parents backyard. It was beautiful and their backyard looked amazing.

I went home on Sunday which was with great sadness since I was returning back to reality, but I'm so glad I went and was able to share such a fun weekend with my family.

Me, my brother Curtis, and my sister Laurie. I'm standing in front of the window where the Metro link train came rushing toward me and scared the crap out of all of us.


My brother in law Gary, Anna, and Laurie. Who knows what's so funny.



Gary and Carol



Anna, Laurie, and Randy.

Laurie, Curtis, and I again. Curtis is Stake President in San Clemente, California so it was funny to hear people call him "President Reese"


Yes, that's Anna acting crazy with Gary. We love him sooo much. He was married to my sister Patsy and is still such a huge part of our family. They were holding sparklers while the bride and groom rushed to their awaiting car.


Again, my favorite people acting silly.


My darling niece Heather and her new husband Taylor. It was a beautiful wedding and I was so fortunate to be able to go and be a part of such a wonderful weekend. Thanks Heath!
