Days before the BIG DAY!

These are a bunch of random pictures taken days leading up to Kelly being married. Chris, Seth and I drove down to Salt Lake City on the Sunday before. We were orignialy going to leave on Monday but after hearing about a bad storm coming our way decided to leave a day early and it's a real good thing we did because this storm was a doozy! We had 4 days with Kelly before she became a Mrs. on Friday March 8, 2013!




MONDAY

On Monday the three of us went to see her new "apartment" (a converted garage) and because Kelly is going to school to be a Medical Assistant she needs to practice taking peoples blood pressure so here she is taking Chris's. The picture of me is down at the end of this post (it got mixed up when I was downloading the pictures).

After getting the A-Okay on our medical status we went to eat at FireHouse Subs. It blows Subway out of the water! And the drink combonations were crazy cool!

Before Kelly and I went swimming in the Hotel pool we were playing Hay Day on our Ipad and Iphone. Her head is on my shoulder (hope she still does that after she becomes a Mrs.) and we had a great time chatting in the pool and hot tub (she didn't want to get out!).


TUESDAY

The next day Kelly and I ran some errands and had an early lunch at Kneaders.

This Joy Of Cooking cookbook has become a tradition in my family. Kelly is the fourth generation to get one. She was very happy to get it! One of her best gifts she said. Mother knows best!

We stopped at to get some candy for the Open House in Lethbridge. I love See's Candy. Especially their lollypops!

Later in the afternoon Kelly and I walked a long ways down State Street to get to the place that Kelly set up for us to get manicures. It was alot of fun and such a treat! Perhaps Kelly and I can make another tradition.

Mother/Daughter hands! Ha!



WEDNESDAY

Kelly made her Bouquet and the Boutonniers's for Scott and Sue (Dallin's parents) and Chris and I. She did a great job. They turned out perfect!

Kelly was trying on her wedding dress and shoes for one last check to make sure she was all ready to go!

After making sure everything was ready we still needed to run to Walmart for a few last minute things for the reception and of course to have a quick lunch at MacDonalds! The 3 of us love MacDonalds!

Oh, my golly they are so cute together!

After attending the temple that evening Scott and Sue took us to to Benihana's for a nice dinner.


THURSDAY

The day before the BIG DAY.....Kelly is packing for her honeymoon to Lake Tahoe!

Looks like everything is all ready to go!!!

After  a few more errands (do errands ever really get done?) we headed over to the church in Sandy to start decorating for the reception. This is what Kelly saw when she walked in. Ahhhh....Dallin!

A bit of a story with the tablecloths but it all turned out well in the end. Nothing that a little ironing couldn't take care of.

Guess lee lee had a phone call to make amongst the flower assembling.

Almost brother in laws! Seth and Dallin. It's pretty exciting to have a new member of the family.

Kelly and Dallin made these cupcake platters to hold the cupcakes at the reception. They did a great job!

This arrangement was on each table. The theme was Vintage.

More flower making.

Scott and Sue gave Kelly and Dallin this Pistachio green Kitchen Aid....their first officail gift!

After all the decorating was complete we all went to Mo Bettah' Steaks for Hawaiian plate lunches.
Teriyaki Chicken, 2 scoops rice and macaroni salad. And don't forget the Hawaiian Sun drinks!

Here is that picture of Kelly taking my blood pressure that was suppose to be the first picture in this post. Oh well.

And here is another picture of us eating at Mo Bettah' Steaks. Thank you to the Cahoon family and daddy/grandpa for your help with the decorating!

Be on the look out for another post all about the BIG DAY!
