Kate & Pete's Wedding Reception

Kate Roger's one of Allison's BFF's all through High School and who is part of our family was married on December 29, 2009 in the Dallas Temple and a Reception was held in her honor at the Colonial Country Club that night. They looked so happy even though it had snowed that day and it never snows in Texas. Really Pete's family has no idea what Texas in December is really like because we have not had the usual Texas weather! They had a actual photo booth like what you see at fairs and malls that everyone sat in and had their pictures taken. One set of pictures were given to us as a favor and the other was placed on pages for the bride & groom and then we wrote our message to the happy couple beside our pictures! Very fun and something I had not seen before. Very cool! Some of the couples pictures turned out so cute with them kissing or being very cute and romantic in the booth, Alan and I however, with being bigger people were just trying to get both of us in the picture, lol, and since I was having to sit on his knee not have my chest and neck be the only thing you see!!!! Funny! We had a martini potato bar where the mashed potatoes where put in a martini glass and then you added all the different condiments that you wanted. They had wonderful food including prime rib and stuffed mushrooms etc.... it was all to die for! They had a rocking DJ. The toast by the MOH John John Merrifeld could not have been more perfect! I would say it was a beautiful night! As we left there was a candy bar with the clear candy sacks that we could fill with different selections of candy and they had sugar cookies with cute, cute pictures of the bride and groom as little children in the frosting! It was an amazing evening.....but the most amazing and wonderful thing is that they were married in the temple and will be together forever! Here's a few photo's (the mother of the bride looked amazing as well and I'm very disappointed that my picture of her did not turn out. Oh, Well!):

The happy couple!
