Scott and Jessica were sealed on August 8th in the Mount Timpanogos Temple which is located in American Fork, Utah. My Dad flew from Bremerton to be there. Shannon & Brian drove up from Las Vegas with their babies. Corinne was only able to attend the reception that evening. She came down with strep throat the day before and had just started the anti-biotics the night before. Fred and I didn't dare take the risk of having any of her family come to any of the sealing and only Corinne to the reception starting at 5:30 pm for family pictures. By then it had been 24 hours on the antibiotics. It was a heart wrenching decision, but we couldn't risk the chance of spreading it. Now days later, none of Corinne's family has come down with it. It was the right decision at the time, but still certainly no fun. We are grateful that Ben encouraged Corinne to come to the reception even though she didn't really want to come much without her family.
Here is the happy couple right out of the Temple Doors!
This is the first time my Dad met Jessica!
This is the reception in Highland Utah. It was in the backyard of a relative. It was really beautiful. Our three children & Mima.
Me and Scott. All these pictures were taken with my camera. The professional photographer portraits will come out later.
I really love this one of Scott and Fred.
At the end of all the photos, I realized there were absolutely no group pictures of the two families together in any form. Only a huge group at the temple with EVERYONE who was there about 50 of us.
This would have been where Corinne's four boys and Ben would be.
Mima is pretty much in all the pictures with her Momma. She wasn't too happy if she wasn't being held by Shannon over the weekend. Mima's special pose for the weekend!
Brian was so patient and supportive all weekend. Chasing after Buddy and being wherever he was needed. Buddy's little Knicker outfit also had a newsboy hat which he refused to wear.
Our baby boy.
Brian and Mima
Here are the two grandbabies. Buddy's having a ball.....
Isn't he dapper?
Here is a picture of the reception. Nice backyard huh?
The Wedding weekend was really a lovely time. Fred and I hosted a luncheon after the sealing. A good friend from long ago in Bremerton lives in Bountiful now and I asked her to decorate and host for us. She did a beautiful job.
Here are the few pictures that Shannon took of the luncheon decorations.

It all looks so beautiful. Too bad about Corinne and family being sick. In spite of that, it looks like everything turned out perfect. And you look very lovely in your dress, too. Who was your Bremerton friend who helped with the luncheon?
(could you email me Scott's address? I have a card for them.)
