Dustin and Autumn's wedding reception

Dustin and Autumn got married in Las Vegas in August and planned a reception in September and I was trying to figure out a way we could go without the children and it occurred to me that if we send them all for overnights at friends houses, we could make it work and that's what we did.  Ryan had a flight out to Italy on Sunday, so it was going to be a fast and furious weekend!
I'm so glad we made it work!  It was great to spend time with that side of the family and enjoy some time away.  Our flight was delayed, so that was a bit of a bummer because we had all these ideas of what we could do and really didn't have too much time.  We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived at the car rental place and he offered to give us a Camaro!  But, Ryan went all practical and said we might need to drive people around and so he gave us some kind of Ford.  As he was doing the paperwork, I spoke up and said, "I think we should get the sports car!"  So we did and it was lots of fun.  Ryan enjoyed driving a lot :).  We were welcomed with a nice downpour...
Happy time on the plane


We stopped to get lunch at Mongolian! and then went to Liha and Wade's and visited for awhile before heading to Anthony and Emily's to get ready.  Then we headed to dinner with the entire group and had such a nice time visiting with everyone!  The blending of the families was so neat and I'm really glad we got to be with them on such a special day.  Then, the dancing started!  I'm not much of a dancer but did get out there a bit.  The boys sure have the dancing beat and they were very sweaty by the end of the night!
