Chris and Kim's Wedding

We were delighted to travel to Okoboji for one last time this year to celebrate the marriage between Chris and Kim. The wedding was outdoors and we honestly could not of had better weather. It was truly amazing. Kim had such a "vision" for the wedding and everything came together just fabulously!!We had a great time getting to know her family and see some of Mike's extended family and close family friends. Just a great weekend!

The reception was in Steve and Linda's yard. Friday started off getting things ready for the reception.

While the kids played at the park across the street.

Porter was in HEAVEN playing with his boy cousins!! I don't think he left Grant's side the entire 3 days. He loved playing with Guy just as much!


My wonderful mother in law ironing Stella, Porter and Mike's clothes for the wedding.

Playing a tune on the piano.

Stella was the flower girl and loved every single second of it. She got her hair done at a salon (a first!) and just loved all her curls.

Love this pic!




Some shots of all the little details that Kim had planned out. She thought of everything!





Below was the cake table that was set up really cute. I took pics before all of this.

The buffet table.

All 5 grand kids before the wedding. Porter (5), Stella (7), Grant (6), Guy (4), Grace (13!!)

Chris deep in thought before the ceremony.

Mike escorting Linda to her seat.

Flower Girl doing her duties.

Porter and Kim's nephew Noah were the "sign holders"  Very cute idea!

Kim was just beautiful! Her proud father escorting her down the isle.

Chris seeing his beautiful bride for the first time (they didn't see each other before the ceremony).

Love this shot looking between Steve and Linda.


Officially married!

We actually got a couple of decent family photos!


Worn out flower girl. She was EXHAUSTED by dinner time. She went to bed at 6:30 and woke up at 7:30 the next morning. She followed Grace around like her shadow but also played a bunch with Grant, Guy and Porter. One tired little chica.

Steve and Linda with their grandchildren.



Not sure what Scott is telling her.....

The newlyweds arriving at the reception.



Cute cowboy boots picture.

Steve hard at work in the kitchen after a busy night.
