Jarod & Kirsten's Wedding

Congratulations to Kirsten & Jarod!  

The newest Mr. & Mrs. Olson got married this weekend at the Yellow River Farm 
in Wisconsin and it was a beautiful wedding.  

Just farmin'.

Cows. Mooooo.



Rehearsing for the big day.

My love.

My loves.

Playing peek-a-boo with his cousin.

Aaron & Mike.  Mike smoked 180 pounds of pulled pork for Jarod.  We love Mike.

This picture kills me a little: Aaron teaching Asher how to use the lighter, Ben not so sure, Asher not so sure that Ben's not so sure, Caleb thinks it's funny.




Asher "plugging in" a million extension cords... bad idea?  Probably.  But the only way to pacify a tiny tyrant during the rehearsel.

Mama & Mac

Sooooo tired.

Distracted by a 'pretty'.

Still got a finger on the necklace but looking like he is on high alert...



Practicing the "now pronounce you man and wife".



...miraculously got him to the dinner, and then gave him a big-kid sized shirley temple.  That wound him up for another four hours.


My lovely nieces Halle & Aidan, and my sweet nephew Mac...who wasn't even grumpy.  
I'm not sure what happened in this picture.  But it is funny!

Mac, Allie, & Caleb.

The herd of cattle that had busted out of their farm and were cruising down the highway.  As I had a panic attack.  Luckily Ben was able to corral them onto a side road using the minivan.  It was intense.

Some wedding sneak peeks.
The groom and his parents.

Cutie Patootie!

Someone loves hand bags.
