Two weekends ago, Philip, Mom, and I went up to Wisconsin
for Summer & David's wedding! We picked up Jacquelyn
from the O'Hare Airport on the way! :-)
It was great to see Jack again! Of course, we had to
stop at Culvers for lunch after we picked her up! :-)
We stayed at Stephen & Tina's! It was so fun to see
the kiddos again! They're just precious! :-)
Levi enjoyed making this puzzle with Jacquelyn!
His famous line was "do you want to play with me?"
It was just too cute! Of course, who could say no?! ;-)
Jack & I went to Starbucks on Friday morning.
We had to find some time to catch up before the
weekend activities got too crazy! :-D
We met up with everyone for lunch at Culvers :-)
Tab, Joanna, and Rachel came to do hair for the wedding,
and, of course, to help in any way they were needed...
decorating, running errands, running to get Frappes, ect ;-)
We spent most of Friday afternoon decorating the Fellowship
Hall for the reception. It was so fun! We decorated the gift table
and the picture table. Can you tell what's on Tab's mind?! ;-)
The BIG DAY!!! :-D
Helping Summer with last minute details...
She was an absolutely beautiful bride!
Summer's comment was, "It's perfect!
It's exactly how I imagined it!"
And that's how it should be! :-)

A quick pic before we walk down the aisle! :-)
Love you, Sum, and just SO EXCITED for you! :-)
After the wedding and reception, the bridal party went
to meet Summer & David at a building downtown to get pics.
Breaking into the gettaway car! ;-)
I thought it was so sweet how David helped Summer with her dress! ;-)
We had a lot of fun taking pictures.. if you can't tell! ;-)
Balloon War! :-D
(We were actually trying to get the balloons untangled!
It was a big mess! We finally just cut them.)
We love you, Summie! :-)
I love this one!
Well, I loved a lot of them really.. :-)
Relaxing while the guys took pictures
The Tunnel!
Sisters.. and sisters! :-)
Beautiful Michaela! :-)
Rains' Siblings
And they got plenty of this in! ;-)
Nice, Mr. Smith! ;-)
The bridal party without the bride and groom
After pictures, we headed toward the Machine Shed for dinner.
I'd never been there before! It was pretty neat!
Of course, snapping pictures while waiting for the food...
and the bride and groom! :-)
It was very nice just to mingle and chat with the bride
and groom... and then to say goodbye...
And away they went (after they found their car in the parking lot)! :-)
Congrats, Sum & Dave!!! :-)
So happy for you both and so thankful to be a part of your special day!
