A Galena Wedding

After we spent a few days at the lake, we headed over to Apple Canyon on my birthday to see Cory's family.  Cory's brother Aaron was getting married on Saturday to Mary at Eagle Ridge in Galena.  We had a busy weekend ahead of us.  A lot of Cory's family was staying at the house in Apple Canyon, so we were able to visit with them on Thursday night.  On Friday there was a BBQ at the lake house for wedding guests.

It was a beautiful day and a lot of people made it...despite all the crazy windy back roads to get there!

Cory and Aaron got to play their cousins in a Finley vs. Hoveland Bags tournament.  I believe Aaron and Cory did win.

Everyone had a great time, including Kelsey, Aaron and Mary's lab, who kept going after the rope swing

Friday night was the rehearsal at Eagle Ridge, followed by dinner at Fried Green Tomatoes in Galena

It was hard to get a picture of everyone....there were 11 groomsmen and 11 bridesmaids!

This is how you are supposed to slow dance at a wedding...

...but Cory thought it was funnier to dance this way, to avoid the belly.

It was a busy weekend and my legs were pooped by Saturday night, but we had a great time!  We even got to eat breakfast with the bride and groom Sunday morning before we all had to head home.  Except that we were heading back to KC to work and Aaron and Mary were heading to Greece for two weeks!
