My youngest sister, Heather, got married in Snow Canyon State Park the first weekend in October. You could not have asked for a better day in the St. George area -- the blue sky and red cliffs made a beautiful backdrop for the wedding, and it was cool but not chilly. It was so good to see Heather and Mike so happy and to be there when they became husband and wife. Heather looked beautiful and serene. I'm glad she found a good guy to share her life with.
Here comes the bride ...
Some of the cousins clambered up the sandstone rocks in their fancy dresses and shoes. Sophia felt content to stay on the ground, but even I wished I could change and climb the cliffs; they looked so inviting.
Mike and Heather had a reception at the Dixie College Alumni House the evening of the wedding day. It was a great place with chandeliers, and my Mom, Dad, and brother (David) strung lights on the ceiling that gave it more of a festive air. Heather's colors were peach and light blue. The butterflies on the cake were a nice touch. It was great to see relatives and friends and people my family has known for years in the St. George area. Hooray and congratulations to Heather and Mike!
Sophia also got to enjoy playing with her younger cousin Lucy. We went to the park by the library and looked at the statues. We also rode on the merry-go-round another day with Heather and Mike.
The girls wanted to play in the water by the library and had a fun time even though they weren't really dressed for it. It will be fun to return to St. George in the summer so Nathan can come too. The cousins will have a blast playing, and it will be hot, so we'll bring swimsuits and have fun in the sun. I always like returning for a visit. "In my mind I've gone to southern Utah ... can't you feel the sunshine ..." That's how I sing it anyway; I've never been to Carolina.
