Allison's Wedding Pics

Brandon started his orthopedic rotation this past Monday and is really enjoying it. He has gotten to help out with quite a few procedures and has been learning a lot. Tonight he is on call at the hospital so I spent the night doing whatever I wanted to! I ran some errands, worked out, ate yummy ice cream at Culver's by myself, returned some things at stores and shopped. I did good though and only bought a couple of baby gifts. I have been invited to at least 5 baby showers in the past couple months and haven't been able to make it to very many of them. I am not sure what the etiquette is, but are you still supposed to give people gifts when you can't make it to the showers? I am not really sure so I bought some little things just in case. One of the onesies was so cute, I had to take a picture of it...it says "What happens at grandma's house, stays at grandma's house"!

I still haven't posted the pictures from Allison and Jared's wedding which was on July 5th. Allison and Jared have been dating since high school like Brandon and I, and had been engaged for 2 years. Allison is so creative and though she called me her wedding coordinator, she did everything. She made her invitations, programs and everything else...she did an awesome job and everything turned out wonderful. They day before the wedding, Brandon went golfing with the boys while I had lunch and got a pedicure (thanks you Allison) with the ladies. Brandon and I were also invited to the rehearsal dinner which was held at Sontes. It was fun to try the food there and to meet their wonderful families. Here are the pictures from both Friday and Saturday, July 4-5:
