My First Wedding Pictures!!!



The brides, Lexi and Morgen, getting ready...




The grooms (Nathan and Connor) werent even allowed upstairs while the brides locked themselves in the bathroom for about half an hour!



The bridesmaid/ringbearer, Elle



This is where the wedding took place...

The ring (CTR)

Oh, such a cute couple!!





After the wedding, we went outside to take pictures.

Dont you love all the weeds in the background?! :)

This was Morgen's pose idea...



This was Lexi's pose idea...
Even though the girls are not exactly modest, and even though they are not really married, I still think that this is a pretty dang cute picture!!

You may now kiss the bride... ugh....

Isnt it great to have cousins your age?

A Blast to the Past!

My mom and I were looking at pictures from all the other years at Lake Tahoe and they were so cute! I can remember a lot of the things in the pictures, especially when we went to Bear Lake in 2003... my horse's name was Gus and I left my necklace at the house we were staying in!

Here is the whole family in 2001:

The grandkids:


Me (I didnt have any teeth!)



Jacqui and Jacob, I think...

This is Bear Lake 2003:
I cant remember what Morgen and Dad's horse's name was, but Jessica's was Booster and mine was Gus (like my cat!)
The little boys:
The little girls:




Lake Tahoe 2004:
We did facials, I guess, but I dont remember it.

The whole family pic:



Lake Powell 2005:
This was the year that our family was in charge of the activities. We did the Survivor thing. In the picture we were digging for the puzzle pieces.
Lake Tahoe 2006:
That's me and Jessica in the canoe...

Lake Tahoe 2007:



And 2009:

This was the Survivor Auction...

Lake Tahoe

Tanning on the beach!


Lexi and Jamie tried to go out in the paddleboat, and Jessica had to go rescue them!


The Webers were in charge of the activities this year. They made it like a Reality TV Show week with a Family Jeopardy, The Amazing Race, So You Think You Can Dance, a movie night, and an auction (like Survivor). Rick voted that the Webers be in charge every year!!!

Morgen, AJ, Jessica, Joely, Jacqui, and Brynn, on the couch playing Jeopardy...




The '5th' (not last) place team from The Amazing Race...
Waiting for the other teams to arrive...


Bryson shooting hoops for us...



There were 3 teams at the Gas Station chugging slurpees at the same time! Jamie, Morgen, and Jared were the Slurpee Chuggers...
The Survivor Auction...

Grandma and Tavin...
Caleb being cute...



(Those are his arms)


Joely being cute...



Nathan and Dad...




Elle, Caleb, Brynn, and Joely...




In the hot tub...



Mike introduced us to Toothpick. You put a toothpick at the bottom of the pool, and everyone stands on the edge and waits for it to come up. When you see it, you dive in and try to get it! The boys played that for hours!





Dad...


Hudson loved the hot tub and his floatie!



Jamie and Lexi...



The Sunsets were gorgeous...


Me and Jess had a fun time playing around on the beach...









Jessica thought that she would be a better maker-outer because her tongue was longer than mine, but we couldnt decide if it really was!



I learned how to Wake Surf! Its really fun, and I was so proud of Frank for the pictures he took! I decided to go on the 7:00 AM boat run with all the guys to take pictures of them, and they talked me into wakesurfing. The water was probably 60 degrees, and the air was probably 62 degrees. I was FREEZING! Seriously I couldn't feel my toes for an hour... but it was still fun!



Mike's professional picture...


And his crash...

The men were 'mad' at me because I would always get pictures of their crashes, but in my defense, I got some professional looking pictures too!
Like Rick's...

And his crash...
Frank's pro...
And crash...

Jared's awesome...

And not so awesome...


Saving the best for last, Tanner's professional...

And crash...

I went on the 9:00 boat run, too, and took a few pictures of each kid. This is Jacqui...

Lexi...

Morgen...
Connor...


And a bunch of kids...


Lexi and Jamie wanted me to do their hair like mine, so I did. I used the Topsy Tail hair thing that I got from Aunt Angie for my birthday, and it does the little twisties. Thats why it looks so awesome!
Thanks Aunt Angie again for the Topsy Tail! Its amazing!







All the little kids...
Tavin loved playing on the paddleboats.


Tavin's new baby brother, Tristin. He is a chunk! He is 5 weeks old, and he weighs about 13 pounds! Its like he isnt even a newborn!
Look at those giant legs!

And those giant cheeks!



Here's AJ... I think he's 10 or 11 months old...




I still haven't gotten these pictures to turn the right way, sorry...






Some more of Tristin...



This was on Saturday, after Jamie's baptism...

I'm so proud of Jamie for getting baptized! Her dress was so pretty, and she looked so grown up!

Joely and Jacqui (and Bryson) swimming...

Lexi and Jamie (and Nathan)...

This is the perfect picture! Jacqui doesn't know what's going on, Morgen is trying to lick me, and I'm mad at her for it!


We had a little pushup contest. Actually, Uncle Rick bet 5 bucks that Lexi couldnt do 50 pushups, and she did, so everyone else started doing pushups to see if they would get 5 bucks!








Tavin was a little tired at his birthday party...



We postponed So You Think You Can Dance until Saturday night at the Weber's house, instead of Friday night at Lake Tahoe. But it was awesome!

The Meinzer's chose Beat It by Michael Jackson...


We had The Hoedown Throwdown, thanks to Morgen...


The boys pretty much stood in the back and clapped the rythm...




The Zufelts had Footloose...

The Webers chose Everybody Dance Now...

The Rick Meinzers had Celebration...


Thanks everyone for an awesome family reunion, especially the Webers for the awesome activity planning! We all had tons of fun! Love you guys!
