The Wedding

K and P were sealed yesterday. It was such a nice sealing. The sealer did a wonderful job and gave them both some really good advice (most of which I will be taking to heart). After the sealing, N, the kids and I went to the Visitor's Center to see the new exhibit my Mark Mabry called Reflections of Christ. It is so good. H and K really loved seeing the pictures of Jesus' life. I was so proud that H actually knew what some of the pictures were. She even knew who baptized Jesus. Maybe I just don't give her enough credit, I just figured she was too young to actually remember those kinds of things. She and K were also very excited to see The Christus (or as H calls it "the statue of Jesus with the holes in His hands"). We watched some of the testimonies of the Apostles. I realized while we were there that we don't utilize the Visitor's Center like we should. The kids loved going and seeing everything. What a great tool to teach them the principles of the gospel.
So, back to the wedding. We went to a luncheon at Olive Garden and had a great time visiting with everyone. After that we went to mom and dad's house to help load up last minute decorations and then to the church building for family pictures. The photographer was awesome. She did great. I'm really hoping that my family's picture turns out and that the 4 generation picture I've been meaning to do since H was born turns out. During the reception H and P danced. H asked P at the luncheon if he would dance with her and he agreed. She just absolutely loves her new uncle. The pictures are so cute. Uncle P is such a great uncle to do that for her. I think it completely made her night--seriously, after that nothing could have ruined it for H. She was on cloud nine.
It was such a long day (we didn't get home until midnight), but the kids were so well behaved. Even little M was so good. They had a great time playing with their cousins and eating cupcakes and I had a good time visiting with friends that I haven't seen in a long time.
