Congrats, Dustin!

Yesterday was awesome! Dustin and Amy got married and it was b-e-a-utiful. Devrey and I and Mom and Dad drove down to Aurora on Friday. We first stopped at Kevin and Tiffany's house to drop off our stuff and to say hi. Then we drove down to Aurora to help set up the church and the yard for the next day. It was pretty fun! As fun as that sort of stuff can be. Then we sat around at Amy's parents' house for a little bit. After dinner Amy took me on a "Razor" ride around Aurora, which was really cool. I had never heard of a Razor before but it's like a souped-up golf cart. It was fun to ride in! We drove up the hills and she showed me where Dustin proposed and then she showed me around the (tiny) town. After that we drove back to Payson to hang out with Kevin and Tiffany and then get some sleep.
On Saturday we woke up early and then drove down to Manti to meet everyone at the temple. The temple was so pretty, and that's just the part I saw of it. I'm sure the rest was amazing. Devrey and I passed the ti
me by watching Logan and walking around the temple grounds. Luckily the ceremony didn't take too long! Or else time just passed quickly, I'm not sure which. Then Dustin and Amy came out and they looked so happy as couples always do when they come out of the temple. And...I warned you...I'm horrible about taking pictures. I thought I was being good by bringing my camera with me but I forgot about it and left it at the house:( I TOLD YOU! But I DID manage to get a picture with my phone, and from the looks of it, Cherice got lots of awesome pictures. Here's Dustin and Amy with Elder Oaks and his wife! Sorry for the smallness.It was so cool that they got to be sealed by Elder Oaks. I think it came as a surprise to some of those who went to the ceremony! I was really glad I got to shake his hand and talk to him for a bit. He is so nice and personable.
After the temple we headed back down to Aurora to get ready for the luncheon. I have to say that that part of the day really sucked, because for some reason I got really sick. It was also super hot so that didn't really help. I felt bad that I couldn't be happy on Dustin's day but I just wanted to lay down and die! But right before the luncheon started I got sick in the the other sense and after that I felt perfect! So we ate the delicious food and did luncheony stuff. After that we went to the house to take some naps and get ready for the reception. It was held in Amy's Grandma's yard and it was very pretty. It seemed to go on forever but finally people stopped coming so Dustin and Amy left and we cleaned up, said our goodbyes, and headed back to Payson!

This morning we slept in and then just chilled with Kevin and Tiffany for a little bit. I always love staying at their house, so thanks guys! Then we took off for home, and that was my weekend! I'm so happy for Dustin and Amy. They're both so amazing and great examples, as each one of my brothers and sisters are. It was a good weekend.
I love weddings :)
