Cait's Wedding!

Kylee, Katie, and I hosted a shower for my best friend, Caitlyn.  I had so much fun getting to see all my great friends from high school.  As one of the activities, we made Caitlyn a wedding dress and bouquet out of napkins.  As you can see we got really into it but it was a total blast!  The theme of her shower was "David and Caitlyn's Firsts".  They got gifts that went along with their first night together, their first fix-it-yourself, their first breakfast, their first time cleaning their apartent, etc.

To celebrate, Caitlyn and David had a nice breakfast at the Joseph Smith Building.  We enjoyed a delicious breakfast while listening to close friends and family tell stories about the newlyweds and give marriage advice.
After the breakfast, it was off to the temple to see them get sealed for time and all eternity.  It was so exciting to see their happy faces and to be there for such a special occasion.  I loved it!

Trav and I had a great time catching up with all my friends and their husbands.
I was lucky enough to be one of the bridemaids.  Caitlyn has always been one of my best friends and I was so glad I could share this special day with her.  Thanks for being a great friend Cait!  Best wishes on your new life together with David!
