JB & CARA'S WEDDING

Last weekend Justin Brown and Cara Rathman were married here in the "Burg." Beau was in the wedding so him and Jen were home. Their friends Teddy and Brooke Grothe and Adam Barnes and his fiancee Amy all stayed at our house along with Jen's sister Jess. It was so much fun having them all here. JB and Cara's wedding was so much fun. It had a western theme to it since Justin grew up on a farm and the reception was out at the farm. The only bad part was that is rained terribly but it certainly didn't put a damper on the fun time everyone had. Congrats to JB and Cara and may you have many, many years of wedded bliss. These pix are from both the wedding and the rehearsal dinner.

We went to visit Jason and the family over Labor Day Weekend. We had a wonderful time. Went to the VOLS first football game of the season which is always fun and just hung out with the grandkids. Nothing better than that. Here are some pics of course that I took while we were there. And there are some professional pictures that Jana had taken of the kids that are just awesome!!!
