Jessica's wedding!

And we were off on Thursday, March 28th.  Picked the kids up early from school and headed to AZ for Jessica's big day.  When we arrived at the hotel we couldn't get in because there were police cars everywhere and yellow crime scene tape at the tram station across the street.  Lovely.  Come to find out there was a shooting earlier and luckily the guy was ok.  Stupid fight between "friends"?  Really?
Friday, Kirk stayed with the kids and they went swimming while I went to the temple for Jessica's endowment session.  It was very nice!
That night, they all had a rehearsal dinner, so our little family went to dinner and then to Bass Pro Shops to kill some time.  The kids always have a fun time there.
Saturday morning we headed over to the temple for the sealing.  It was very nice and the Jessica looked beautiful!
After pictures, we left and got some lunch and back to the hotel for a bit and then headed over the reception.
Love this picture of my cute niece and nephews all grown up.  :)
We were there during Easter Pageant time, so we headed over there that night.  Long day!  It happened to be in spanish, but they gave out earphones for English.  Devin had a very hard time sitting there, but survived.  :)
Sunday we headed out to Queen Creek to see Lori.  I really miss her and love that I've been able to see her for the past couple of years.  Our kids have fun together, too.

And this is the new Gilbert Temple that will open later this year.  So exciting!
It was a fast trip, but a good one.  It was the start of a 2 week Spring Break for the kids, so we got back on Sunday night in time to be home for a full 2 weeks.
