The Wedding

Dum-dum-dum-dum. Dum-dum-dum-dum. (That is the wedding march . . . I'm trying to set a tone here!) My little sister got married last Saturday, and it was a fabulous day! Here are some pictures, and some of my favorite things: *When Jennie and BJ came out of the temple, they didn't know what to do with everyone staring at them, so they started dancing. If ONLY I had my camera set to video . . . *Randi and CJ, Jeff and Debbi, and Jon and I all rode together to the temple. Three VanDrimmelens and the people crazy enough to marry them in one car? Well, it was entertaining to say the least. *Mmmmm, paninis at the wedding lunch. Enough said. *Even though it was pretty warm, the outdoor reception was so much fun. My reception was great. Randi's was really elegant. Jennie's reception was FUN! I had a total blast! Mom had one neighbor across the street who came, and then came back later because they thought it was so fun! *Make sure you look for the picture of the candy table. Randi went to a wedding in California about a month ago and they had a candy table. So, we kinda stole the idea. And it was awesome! Basically, there were a bunch of bowls with different candy in them as well as bags and ribbons. The guests grabbed a bag, filled it with whatever candy they wanted, tied it up all pretty, and took it home. On Monday when I was at Mom's house, I went in the backyard to get something and noticed where the most traffic had been because the grass was trampled down. You know, by where Jennie and BJ stood, in front of the food. The best one though? There was a perfectly matted down circle where the candy table had been. So funny! *The 5 nieces/granddaughters looked so adorable. They all had white and blue dresses. For most of the night, the girls danced around to the music. I think my grandpa may have shot about an hour of video solely of the girls dancing. I called them the dancing princesses! *Jennie looked beautiful! I can't believe my little sister is married. Congrats Jennie and BJ! *P.S. Jeff, I will upload all these pictures to the family site after I post this! (Just thought I'd save you the trouble of asking!)
