On April 26th, Mckenna and I boarded a plane and headed to sunny California for a very important event. Sarah Williams was getting married!!!! It was such a fabulous weekend and perfect wedding. I have way to many photos to share but hopefully can pick some highlights that can show how beautiful and wonderful the weekend and wedding was.
We arrived at LAX and drove an hour and a half to Temecula, California.
After we dropped our bags off at the hotel we drove a few minutes to Thornton winery to meet the Williams family. It was SO great to see Sarah, Jeff, Aunt Chris, Uncle Gary, Jen, Alex, and Wyatt. I LOVE this family!!!
Uncle Gary, Sarah, and Aunt Chris
Mckenna and I with Wyatt! He is such a cutie!! Mckenna told Jen and Alex she was "available" for babysitting throughout the weekend - she loved spending time with him!
Aunt Chris and Gram - these two have SO much fun together!!
After the winery we went back to the hotel to watch the 1st round of the NFL draft.
Thank goodness for Alex - he and I were able to rally the troops and got everyone to the hotel bar for the first pick!
Mckenna was such a trooper all weekend. She loved all the attention :)
Buddies!
On Friday morning Sarah and Jeff surprised the wedding party with a hot air balloon ride.
I cannot describe what this was like except to say that it was right up there for me with the Alaskan glacier cruise as an amazing experience.
These balloons were huge!
Seriously - beautiful....
Cheers :)!
Uncle Steven took Mckenna swimming a couple of times. This is actually the place and the person that she really swam to for the first time. She jumped off the side and swam to Uncle Steven - it was awesome!!
Brittney was Mckenna's best friend for the weekend and went everywhere with her. She even had a plan for Brittney during the wedding. Mckenna thought it was a great idea for Brittney to be in Grams purse for the wedding but she was insistent that her head needed to be out of the purse so she could watch.

During the rehearsal dinner, Sarah gave Mckenna a necklace and bracelet to wear to the wedding so the two of them could be matching. Mckenna was SO excited. She still keeps the necklace and bracelet in the same box they came in. Almost daily since the wedding, she takes them out, wears them, and then carefully puts them back in the box.
Mckenna and Mommy all dressed and ready for the wedding.
Mckenna doing cheers with the ladies!!

I am so happy for these two and it was awesome to share in their special time!!
