An Eventful Weekend

This last weekend we all traveled up to Oregon for Bob and Molly's wedding. It is hard to believe that only one week ago we had not even left for the trip to Oregon yet. Somehow it seems like several weeks ago! That's not a bad thing, it's just that so much has happened and we were so busy.
On Friday we drove up to Oregon. We had a great time eating dinner with Rudi and Carla Booher and their children. After that we stayed the night at their aunt and uncle the Nydem's house. We had never met them before. They were so hospitable and friendly and it was easy to feel comfortable in their home.
Saturday was the wedding. It was a simple and elegant wedding. I wasn't able to take very many pictures because my camera didn't like the lighting in the church :(
That evening we stayed up late playing games and being silly. That night we all kind of went separate ways, also. Our parents went to the coast for their anniversary. Melissa and I stayed at the Shultzes with the Keulens and Jonathan stayed with the Engells.
On Sunday morning we drove over the pass to Bend for the reception for Daniel and Jenny Gillogley. It was a fun and busy day. We spent that night at the Johnson's home. There were many people staying there. It was enjoyable to have a chance to spend more time with everyone before going home.
The plan was to leave at 9 a.m. Monday morning but that isn't what happened. It always takes longer than expected but this time the reason was an accident. The Keulen's cousin was driving the four wheeler and flipped. His shoulder was injured so we waited while he was taken to the doctor. It was a blessing that he was not hurt more seriously. Anyway by the time everyone got back and we got on the road it was 4:15 in the afternoon. We traveled all night and didn't arrive at the Keulens until 6:30 the next morning. We were so exhausted that we all just went to bed and slept until much later in the morning. We had a very lazy day at the Keulens then went home that night. Our parents got home a few hours later than we that night also.
That is the shortened and condensed version of our crazy trip. There was so much more that happened, too. It is really strange, but for some reason I didn't take nearly as many pictures as usual. So there are only a few.
