2 Weddings and a Birthday!

Most important, Julia turned 8!

She had a great day, with a soccer game and a karaoke party. Her present from us was a trip to Seattle. This Saturday she will be baptized and she is so excited.

Last summer I was thinking, no one we know is getting married. We hadn't been to a wedding in awhile, but in the last month we went to 2. The first was in Santa Fe over Labor Day weekend. My friend from middle school, Katie, got married. It was a very memorable day, during the Indian ceremony, we ended up in a huge rain storm.

Then, last weekend my cousin Ariana got married in Seattle.

I took Julia and Natalie and we had a great time. We spent a lot of time visiting with family and touring the city. Julia loved every minute of it and wanted to stay longer.

The reception was at the Space Needle.
