Five days of Fun.

September 29th was a good day.  It was the day Kaleb, one of my very closest friends, rushed to the alter before his beautiful bride to be Teanna had a chance to change her mind.  
 The wedding was great but that's not where we started.  Wednesday ended with a simple bachelor party planning that ballooned to a group of 10 by the end of the night.


Thursday night we headed to Manito Park for a little competition, fellowship and brats. 
One of the many challenges of the night was a IPA pairing...
A three legged race (don't ask)...
and a football game. 
Friday night we headed North of Kettle Falls for the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner.  Kaleb landed the groomsmen a killer hang out spot for Friday night right on the river.
It was a giant garage w/ a TV, at least 7 full size beds and a giant tractor.
 The beds were up on a loft.

K-flex, with the brothers, Jeremy and Jason. 
 The next day Brandon, Jeremy and I were put in charge of picking up the ice for the reception.  It's a small town and things don't always operate the way they should.  When we arrived they were closed so I called a random number which happened to be the owner's wife.  She told me to go around back and if someone was there I could get the ice.  No one was there but the door was unlocked and ice we got!
 Jason and Joel ironing their shirts while Brandon picked the music.
 The set up was beautiful and the weather was near perfect.

The groomsmen with the groom. 
 This was the second wedding we've attended with Avery.  There is something great about being with her at weddings.  I attempted to dance with her during one of the songs but she freaked out on that dance floor.  Uh oh, she may have her mom's dancing gene.
 Three very protective "uncles."  

 Kaleb couldn't have picked a better bunch of guys.  It was such a blessing to get together with them for a few days.

 The reception consisted of dinner, a roast of the bride and groom, and dancing of course.


The groomsmen w/ papa Rich, Joel's dad, who always seems to appear for such occasions- kind of like a leprechaun looking for it's lost pot of gold. 
 A small bay hidden from wind and a delightful view during the ceremony.

Avery June was a trooper, as usual, throughout it all. 
And we left with this. Those that were present gathered for a last picture before calling it a night.  Until we meet again!!
