The week after Rob's graduation Rachel, his younger sister, got married in Utah. Rob and I had to make it a whirlwind trip--arriving at 3am Saturday morning (delayed flight), sleeping a few hours, heading to the temple and reception, flying back to Houston at 7pm, finally getting home at about 2 am Sunday morning (delayed flight).
But, for Rachel, it was
totally worth it! We're so thrilled she found her personal Prince Charming; Conlon seems like such a sweet guy.
Here are a glut of picture highlights from the 24-hour trip:
 |
| Meeting Tennyson for the first time since he was about 5 days old |
 |
| Waiting for Rae & Conlon to come out...and meeting the FUN Bonner family |
 |
| Teairsa and Mark-- 2 awesome expressions and for Mark, awesome hair. |
 |
| One of Rachel's precious new nephews |
 |
| Eden--Kit and Kevin make the CUTEST kids! |
 |
| Ryn, the first Kit and Kevin creation |
 |
| Happy, happy! |
 |
| Sisters |
 |
| More Sisters--Conlon's siblings have the BEST smiles! |
 |
| Who knew weddings were a contact sport? I lost a toenail in an encounter with Darrell's shoe during a group picture. |
 |
| I felt pretty badly about leaving such a gruesome memento on the Bountiful Temple grounds. |

| First Official Belly Photo: 27 weeks with TWINS |
Rob's siblings & spouses #s 1-5
(minus #3-Matt and Natalie somehow escaped our photographic grasp).
 |
| Joy & Darrell with baby Margueritte |
 |
| Kit & Kevin with Elle, Eden, Ryn, and Darren |
 |
| Mark & Aupreille with Tennyson and Teairsa--who we could NOT catch smiling all day! |
 |
| John & Laura sans kids: footloose and fancy free! |
Rachel and Conlon's reception was beautiful and we wish we could have been there for more of the pre & post wedding festivities. I guess that's what happens when student life finally rolls to an end and you have a real job to get home to....times like these are when getting a Ph.D. starts to seem like a better and better idea.....
Actually, not really.
