Mark & Charla's Wedding

My cousin Mark was getting married to his sweet fiancee Charla in their home state of Texas. They were so supportive and made the effort to come to our wedding three years ago, we wanted to reciprocate....plus, they're family!!!! ;) My family lived in Texas when I was younger, so it was also nice to go back after all those years and I have never been to Austin. Since Matt was now with us, we met up with the entire family on Friday night at the Rehearsal Dinner. We were finally meeting all of Charla's family.

Reception:

 


The food was pretty amazing!!
 I think I can say it was the best food I've ever  had at a reception!!!!!
& the cake was SO yummy I had two pieces!







The wedding was absolutely beautiful.
They had a cool photo booth, open bar, great food, dancing, and many special family moments. It was a lot of fun! I am thankful to have a wonderful new cousin!!
Congratulations y'all! Here's to many more years together!

Shower for Baby Auten

At the end of January, Matt and I went home to help throw a baby shower for some dear friends of ours. We were in charge of putting together the activities.


This picture should be a huge indication as to what the shower theme was.......





And what could be more FUN than a skeet shoot, BBQ, bonfire, cake, 
and a cornhole tournament for a baby shower??!!!



I printed the "Wishes for Baby" as an activity for everyone to be a part of.






just a quick video


Matt and his dad set up lanes for the skeet shoot as well as built the bonfires. 
Later in the evening we had a cornhole tournament.



There were so many shotgun shells



My love and I




Time for cake and gifts!!
