Cousin Jonathan's Wedding - Livin' the Good Life

09:00 pm - Cousin Jonathan's Wedding

My cousin Pamela's son, Jonathan, got married last weekend to Ayako. The wedding was held outdoors in a meadow in the mountain town of Ketcham, Idaho. They all said it couldn't have been more beautiful!

In the picture above are Jonathan's two sisters: Tenaya with her son (and Ollie's newfound friend) Dash, and Asia Rae, holding the flowers, with Jonathan's Uncle Tom (my cousin Tom) officiating.

Nathen and Reanna made it


Damian and Maya and Ollie made it




But, Steve and I and Grandpa Bob did not. We were grateful, though, that some of our family was able to make it and represent our love and support. We would have loved to have been there.

Not only did Ollie make friends with Dash (4) and his other cousin, Orion (7), but he made fast friends with Asia Rae which will probably last forever! He just LOVED her!


It was a grueling drive .... 12 hours. That is a long time for 4 adults and 1 toddler to ride in a car together. But they did it with lots of stories and finger plays and talking and playing and, yes, lots of stops to let the baby (and grown-ups) get their wiggles out. Jogging, anyone?


And another stop


Don't you just love Ollie's running-style? Such energy, such enthusiasm!
