On Saturday, August 20th my brother Brad and Rachel were married in the Oakland Temple. It was such an incredible day and we are so happy to have Rachel as part of our family. It was also special for Aaron and I because Patriarch Johnson officiated and he officiated our sealing 5 years ago. It was neat to be reminded of the covenants we made and hear some things that were reminiscent of what we were told 5 years ago.
The only picture we got before the reception is this one of Preston after leaving the Temple. He was a tired boy! 
Rachel was a BEAUTIFUL bride (I love her dress) and Brad was glowing all day. We are so happy for them.
First dance

Such a sweet picture of Brad hugging my mom after their dance. She is so tiny next to him.
While I was over taking pictures Aaron, Jim, Dee and Hillary were at our table in the corner

The Garter
Brad shocked us all when he really went for it!
It was so fun having the Carter's with us! Dee, Jim, Hillary, Me and Aaron
Auntie Anna and Preston. Could he be any cuter in his little bow tie? I don't think so. Lyndsey did such a great job making it.
Caitlin is as precious as can be enjoying her cake
Lyndsey, Sandi Scott and I did the flowers for the wedding. Here is one of the table arrangements. They turned out so beautiful and I love the colors!
The getaway car-awesome decorations! My favorite is "Caution: Red-headed babies approaching" LOL
Lyndsey, Jessica and Me
Preston also enjoyed the cake and loves using the fork himself
Mom and Me

After Brad and Rachel left the music was still on and Preston started dancing. It was adorable to watch him get his groove on.
My boys
Happy Family
I was trying to get a close up shot of Preston with his bow tie but the flash kept making him squint and blink. He's still adorable!
Mom and Preston
Congratulations Brad and Rachel!!!!

Okay, that is so funny! Your now sis-in-law had the SAME dress as my sister who just got married!!! LOL! That's not suppose to happen! :) You all looked so great! I loved your hair!
The Coons all look fab, especially Preston in his bow tie. Can Lindsay make Tony and Sam some? Pretty please. Congrats Brad and Rachel. She did have a great dress.
