Ellen's wedding was wonderful. This is what my mom wrote on our family blog: 'The wedding ceremony took place in the Rexburg Idaho Temple and was absolutely wonderful. The Sealer is a friend of our family and presented a great message for El and Stoddard and the rest of us. Stoddard's mother had a fantastic salad luncheon prepared at their church house. If any of you need a great luncheon idea this is the one to do. Even the little nieces agreed it was great. After the lunch Paul and I rushed home and started setting up the reception. It was hot and the wind picked up. We couldn't keep the tablecloths on the tables, the centerpieces fell over many times and it made thing in general a mess. The photographer came, no one was ready. The bride had to have her hair and makeup redone, the mother of the bride was rushing around getting the refreshments packed to the basement-ready for the wonderful ladies of her book club who took over serving for her so she could take a cold shower and then discovered that her dress needed pressing, the mother of the groom had made the cake and was getting it finished and set up, the nieces finally got to wear their dresses but were worried that they wouldn't get to play outside in them and were leading a revolt, the father of the bride looked terrific in his freshly cleaned suit and the groom just smiled. Then....the wind quit, the cake was lit, the parents lined up and the bride and groom smiled on. It turned out to be a lovely evening with lots of friends and family. And when the sun set we had fireworks!

I'm always amazed at how much Laura looks like a Beattie... darling!
What pretty little dresses. Your girls look adorable. Give us a call the next time your up, which probably won't be for a while seeing how your little man will be here soon. Good luck with everything. We can't wait to see pictures of your new little family member.
