Stolen Wedding Pictures

Well, Casey and Nichole posted pictures of their wedding on their blog and I loved them so much, I stole them off their blog and posted them on mine too! :) Hopefully they won't care!

I absolutely LOVE this one of all of their neices and nephews (Carter and Rylee are the only ones from Casey's side of the family until little Olivia comes in August). This picture is even funnier if you were there to witness the death and destruction that occured to get all of these little ones within view of the camera.

I love this one too. They are such a cute couple!! Her flowers are amazing too!

I think this picture of Nichole and her brothers is so cute! She is the fourth child which puts her smack dab in the middle of 6 boys!

This is all of Nichole's family.

This is all of Casey's family (except Josh)! We'll have to get another one taken soon since Josh isn't there and soon Olivia and Allen will join the family!

Casey's Wedding!

My younger brother Casey married Nichole Gardner on May 31st in the St. George Temple. They are so dang cute! Unfortunately, we FORGOT our camera at the reception BIG TIME BUMMER so here are a few pictures but none of the actual reception. T.J. and Hanna have a few on their blog (I have a link to it on the bottom of this page). Her colors were apple green, black, and pink. She looked so pretty (though you will not see any pictures of her in her dress here for some odd reason??) and the reception was beautiful! I also have a link to their blog and they might post pictures soon so keep checking if you're interested!

Carter looking mighty handsome outside the temple.

Rylee being cute outside of the temple.

My youngest brother Josh (yes he is taller than all 3 of his older siblings and better looking too)!

Grandma Kim (my mom) with Rylee!

The two look-a-likes! (I'm told on a regular basis that Rylee has none of my physical characteristics, unfortunately she has inherited my girly personality. Can you say "drama queen?")

Courtney (my younger sister) and her fiancee (sp?) Allen Lloyd (no apparent relation to my husband, but if you ask Allen and Ryan they will tell you that only truely manly men are "Lloyds"). Courtney and Allen are getting married in the St. George Temple on September 6th.

The best looking table at the wedding luncheon! From left to right, Courtney, Allen, McKenzie (my youngest sister), T.J., Hanna, and Ryan

Uncle Casey sharing his dessert with Rylee at the luncheon (because of his hyper-active typical 2 year old behavior, we uninvited Carter to the luncheon!)

Waiting outside the temple. Left to Right Hanna (cute pregnant sister-in-law), T.J. (my brother just younger than me, he is married to Hanna), and my Aunt Ashlee.
