Not quite wedding crashers...


The day had finally come and we were off to Clovis to celebrate Ty & Britt getting married, Griffin & Millie were excited to be part of the wedding and ALL of us were ready to go at 4 am to travel to Cali.  Well, this is right when Covid-19 hysteria hit and the airlines had different plans for our family...after some quick thinking on Rich and my part, we switched airports and were on our way.  All is well that ends well and by well I mean...not 12 plus hours travelling with 3 different plans for this family of 5.  What a circus!

Getting the wiggles out at Sea Tac before our now "direct" flight to Cali!

All aboard...one of the "last" trips with Leighton in our lap and she made sure to go back and forth 397 times!



We arrived and met the bride and groom from a late brunch!

Off to the "pool" to enjoy some sunshine.  That is another story...but it's safe to say, we checked out of this hotel as fast as we checked in.

All cleaned up and ready for the rehearsal dinner.


Our little flower girl and ring bearer ready to practice!

Uncle Jason with Leighton.

The wedding party ready to head down the aisle.

Just a group of crazies...Uncle Jason and Aunt Becky with the kids!

LJ making her "fish" face! It was a LONG day and she was spent!

This guy...the one my heart belongs too...even on day 40 of stay at home when he is driving me a little crazy!

Time for some wedding prep!


Off to the park to enjoy the sunshine!

I mean...THIS just melts my heart!

The night before the wedding family party night....



And then it was time for the BIG day!

LJ was home resting...so when we arrived we had to go check on Millie!


Cheers to LOVE!!!

I swear SHE LOVED every second of this!

Time to PARTY!!!


Millie loved hanging with the "plus one" guys!  Hopefully part of the family soon.

First dance!

Mother Son and the reception continues on.





Time for cake!




THIS.  These MOMENTS are why I'm a mom.  No place I'd rather be (EVER) than with my littles in my lap or on the dance floor.....  Wish all 3 were in my lap then, today and forever!

Fun at the photo booth!


Soaking in the last of the dances and rocking out on the dance floor!

Wrapping up a fun few days in Clovis and headed back home...

Last kisses with Aunt Becky and Uncle Jason....until next time!

And we were back on a plane...heading home (to a world that was different from when we left).


The next day was day 1 of home schooling...day 1 of stay at home (currently on day 40) and day 1 of a shift that continues to prove to be a roller coaster!
