May

Yeah, We have some catching up to do haha.  So the big event in May was all of the family traveling back to Houston for Steve's (younger bro)'s wedding.  It was fun being all together again and seeing how much all of the kids have grown.  We were able to get together and take a full family portrait which I don't think we've ever had a full one-maybe back in the day when there were just two grandkids but we never used it haha.  The wedding was great and only minimal drama which is pretty much all you can ask for.  It was a short visit-just 4ish days but was fun all the same.

Our full family plus my grandparents on my dad's side:

                              Our immediate family: parents, four children and spouses and children

My parents: Gary and Kathy

Their first: Eric, with his wife, Sarah, and adorable daughter Olivia

I swear I had pics of the whole fam with the bride and groom but I can't find them at the moment so, oh well.  They also had a ring ceremony at the church for Rosie's family, and afterwards transitioned into the reception so here's some from the reception.  (I only took a few and haven't gotten any pics from the official photographer etc.)  It was a really well done shnazzy reception with a dance area in the middle and tons of pie :)

My handsome boys:

they were very nice on the cake eating:
