College girls

One of the perks of going to a wedding in UT - these two!

Wedding

Flying to Utah - again. You'd think by now we'd be pros at this. We're not. 

Rehearsal dinner - TJ killed it with his best man speech. He had all his siblings help and it was complete with our favorite Robert stories (he only looked properly angry with TJ once...), silly gifts and slideshows. 

I got shockingly few photos of the day / this weekend in general. There's no good excuse for it. 

Outdoor garden reception was lovely. Never ending supply of acorns on the ground for Wells to try and eat was less lovely.  And about these photo strips: For the photo on the top right I said "pout!' - TJ chose to go with the other definition.

Cheeky

They say that at 9m babies don't understand 'no'. I respectfully disagree. 

This guy loves his Grandma

 

First night away

Mum took Wells for the night so we could have a little college roommate reunion at Zermatt in Midway. Wells and I both handled it great. We should do it again soon Mum. 

Utah snippets

Dropping off Cori and Shelly at uni -- can you tell which one is the freshman? 

Wells has a signature move - when he likes another kid he crawls over as close as he can get and then turns and sits on them. This little girl (6m older than Wells) didn't love it.

First carousel ride

Fifth's disease. (To be followed later that week by a head cold, gastro-intestinal virus and ear infection. Brilliant).

Cousin time.

Blue Boar breakfast (its a Midway tradition).

A Houston friends reunion. (remember these guys?)

Galveston

Last time we went to the beach he was thoroughly unimpressed. He didn't like the sand and he was terrified of the water. This weekend we had to grab him before he crawled straight into the ocean.
