High on the Mountain Top

On Thursday September 20, Jaime boarded a plane for Utah to attend her niece Julie’s wedding and arrived just in time for the bridal shower. Jaime’s sister Heather made some fabulous cheesecakes, which everyone thought came from The Cheesecake Factory. Julie loves the color pink, so pink was the theme for the party.

On Friday, everyone went to the hotel to take family pictures.




Then they had a barbeque to get to know Julie’s husband Christian and his family. Following that, Jaime and her family helped Julie with the last-minute details for her wedding (we’ve learned the hard way that it’s not a "wedding" unless you stay up half the night cramming to get things done).

The next morning, Jaime and her family drove up to the ceremony location. Julie chose a venue in a canyon, which offered a beautiful panoramic view. After Julie and Christian exchanged vows and sealed them with a kiss, it started to sprinkle a little. But luckily the rain held out until the reception was over.
Fun Fact:
Julie and Christian are Trekkers, so the topper for their wedding cake was a pair of Star Trek figurines.
Julie looked beautiful in her Maggie Sottero dress and Christian was very handsome.

Afterward, Jaime flew back home, commenting that it's always great to see family, but after traveling for so many weeks, it’s good to be home again.









"I didn't get to go. I had to stay home with Dad."









"Me too. It was boring."
