Arizona Wedding

 
Last Wednesday we arrived in the Arizona to begin our Stateside tour - kicking it off with a bang of Tristan's sister's wedding. We arrived a few days before the wedding to be a part of all the wedding festivities - part of it being pool time at the rental house where we were all staying! It was so great to see so much family and to reconnect with people that had traveled there to come to the wedding as well.
 
The wedding was beautiful! We're so happy for Jenny & Duane! Tristan was one of the groom's men, I was a bridesmaid, and Maddy was one of the flower girls (along with Audry, now Maddy's distant cousin who became fast friends and were inseperable the whole week). Ali slept through most of the ceremony. :) The reception and the celebration to follow was stellar and a lot of fun!
 
now to the good part...the pics :)
 

 Maddy, Audry, and Austin played so well together - and Tristan & Papa were their best toys :)

 Tristan's great-aunt Mary (94yrs old) getting to know Alessandra.
 Maddy was hilarous! She walked down the isle with Shanon (nana) and Audry -after first getting distracted at the fountain, she then decided to sit down in the middle of the isle. After getting to the front, Maddy and Audry played with the rose pedals on the ground - putting them in and out of the baskets - they were adorable and yet a pretty cute distraction.

 These girls stealed the show :)
 Jenn was absolutely beautiful as Duane was handsome. She was definately a glowing bride!
 Maddy loved her princess dress that swirled when she danced! She's my princess!
 Ali was passed around a lot of the evening, but we still got to have a dance with her as well. and Papa (Tristan's Dad) was a favorite for the dancing as well - Maddy and Audry were always seeking him out.
 Towards the end of the night both our girls were extremely clingy! Maddy was DONE with all the new faces and people wanting to hold her or touch her.
