November 2, 2013
My nephew, Logan, was married on November 2 in the LDS Newport Beach Temple. I drove Annika and Grandma and Grandaddy to California for a whirlwind weekend. (Brian stayed home with the big kids seeing that they had volleyball and football games.) It was a wonderful experience and I'm glad I was able to participate. The ceremony was beautiful and they had a great turnout. It was wonderful to see so many family members who live far away. It felt like a family reunion!
Annika was a champ - it turns out she's an excellent traveler.

Annika loved the attention from all her cousins! Here she is with Devan - my brother Corey's daughter.
When the bride and groom arrived Annika said, "Can I go see the princess?"
After the ceremony, we went out to eat. Here she is holding hands with her cousin Addison.
Annika thought it was a super special trip since we got to stay at a hotel. Haha! She loved riding the elevator and jumping on the beds. :)
The bride and groom! They are a darling couple. I'm so glad we got to share their special day with them. The reception was beautiful. They held it outdoors at a park with twinkling lights throughout the trees.
Annika was spoiled with attention from cousin Addison - she just adores him!
Me and My Sisters
We were going to take a picture so they had us all stand in age order. Naturally I stepped 3 feet in front of the rest of them to remind them how much younger I am! They did not appreciate that. Haha!!
After being pulled back into line by my sister Sharon, we took a respectable picture. Left to right: Krystal, Sharon, Ellen, Leana, Laura, Jennifer
I really enjoyed seeing so much family! Here's my Auntie Lilah with my mom. Cute sisters.
We were all exhausted after a long day of partying! After a good night's sleep we returned to Las Vegas having had a wonderful trip.
