Megan's Wedding

 The weather was perfect for this Idaho wedding in May.  You just never know what you are going to get, wind, rain, hail, snow...

 Megan and Waldo were married in the Twin Falls, Idaho LDS Temple.  The ceremony was in Spanish which was very neat.  I understood most of it, probably because the temple worker was a gringo. :)

Michael tried to video most of the reception for Megan and he caught some interesting things on tape.  He caught a couple of people doing an B.O. check, sniffing their pits right in front of the camera.  He videoed some crazy dance moves too.  I wish I would have had some video footage of my wedding reception....live and learn right?

 This is Megan's wedding cake.  She didn't want anything big or fancy, so I volunteered my mother's services.  Mom is so talented and Megan was not a picky bride at all.  I think the cake turned out beautifully and tasted very good too.

Here is my contribution to the wedding.  I made the wedding flowers and really had fun doing it.  Megan didn't restrict my creative juices by any means.  I basically got to do whatever I wanted as long as I matched the wedding colors.  So, I incorporated pictures of Waldo's parents and Megan's belated Mom, Holly, since they couldn't be there in person to celebrate with them.  The reception was a great success and they received some very nice wedding presents too.  The happy couple is living in Provo this summer and will move up to Pocatello for Megan to finish her last year of school at ISU.

The latest project...

Michael inherited this rusted out tool box from his Grandpa Everardo Hernandez.  Michael spent a great deal of time sanding, taping, painting, and repainting this little tool box. Grandpa Hernandez's nickname at work was Eveready.  I love how Michael incorporated that into the box, it looks awesome and is a sweet way of remembering him. 

Graduation Party

We had a little BBQ to celebrate Michael graduating from the Rad-tech program at Boise State University.  He is already working as an RT, but is now finished with school and can take the boards and hopefully get a raise. :) He was accepted into the CT program and will finish that in one semester next fall, completing his bachelors degree. 

 
Cammy and Nick came up Friday night with their girls and we had fun feeding the ducks, playing tennis, ridding the paddle boats, and playing at the parks/playgrounds. 

Saturday Michael's parents, Megan & Waldo, and my parents came up for a fun family BBQ and Michael's graduation banquet for the RT program.  It was a fun night celebrating him and all that he has accomplished so far.  I'm so proud of him.  

The Bridal Shower

The bridal shower for Megan came together smoothly.  Unfortunately the timing didn't work for a lot of Megan's family and friends, so we had just a small shower for her.  She still ended up with a car load of goodies.  She is set for camping and has a good start on her food storage, thanks to Aunt Margarita and her girls.  The wedding is Friday May 24th.  I am excited to make her wedding flowers and be there for her wedding. 

M and W for Megan and Waldo.

Aunt Marsha and Grandma Vera

After the reception I got to spend some quality time with my sisters, eating fruit loops and checking out antique shops.  We had a great weekend.
