MN Part 3 - The Wedding

Our last few days in MN was a whirlwind wedding weekend :)  On Friday after the rehearsal, Mel and Ryan had all of us over for a BBQ at their house.  Michael slept through most of it, but Hannah was the life of the party!  She hung on to Uncle Ryan's pants and grinned up at him when she wanted something, she snuggled up to Uncle John during dinner and managed to melt his heart, and she lived up to her corn-loving reputation by eating he weight in corn on the cob (this really amused Ryan's dad, who called her the "corn kid" for the rest of the weekend).  As we were packing up to leave for the night, Hannah grabbed a bag of Tostitos for the road :)  On Saturday our good friend Alisson picked up both kids to keep overnight.  She and her husband Jeff had fun with the kids at a park and at their house with their puppy Maisy (Hannah was concerned - she thought Maisy was just the mouse from her books!).  The next morning they went to church and Hannah and Michael showed them how well kids can behave in church when it's part of their routine :) The kids had a great time with Auntie Alisson and Uncle Jeff and were sad to leave them!  Meanwhile, back at the wedding, we had fun taking pictures and hanging out before the service.  The ceremony was beautiful and the reception was so much FUN!  Sunday, after picking up the kids, the family met back at Pam's house for the gift opening and tos ee the happy couple one last time before their honeymoon.  The weekend was a great end to a great trip!  Now, for some pictures:
