An Alaska Wedding

What a picture perfect wedding for Wes and Jessi.  They decided that they wanted to have an outdoor wedding in AK and we were all nervous about the wedding actually taking place outdoors (and not having to be moved inside), especially since July had been so rainy in AK already.   However, the Lord was so gracious and gave us a perfect day for the wedding.

When we arrived in AK a few days before the wedding everyone was working at full speed finishing-up the last details for the big day.  We but together flowers, pulled weeds, gathered ingredients for the food at the reception, and baked over 600 cookies.  Everyone worked hard and we even got shirts to wear for the occasion...

The wedding day finally arrived, the rain stayed away and everything and everyone was ready.  Tyler and Neal were both in the wedding, along with several others friends and family and ALL the cousins.

With the potential of anything happening when you have 7 kids in a wedding it actually all worked out perfectly.  The kids did exactly what they were told and made it all the way down the aisle without a problem.   You can see the whole wedding party pictures below...

We had such a great time celebrating with everyone and are so excited and happy for the new Mr. & Mrs. Wes Hampton and their new lives together.  They are living in OH which is only a days drive from us so we will get to go visit them some and maybe spend a few holidays together.   Congratulations again to Uncle Wes and Aunt Jessi - We love you both!!
