All for Mary's Wedding!

A story needed to be told here years ago, so since I'm late, I'll make it a short one. One sentence per photo. Plus one to start: I was my Mary's bridesmaid, and I went to Oregon!

This story begins with pre-wedding preparations, which included BonBon seeing and hugging her first Redwood tree (Bucket list item fulfilled).

Next we take a little detour to celebrate Mary's beautiful self and the brilliance of props among friends.

Naturally all bridesmaids needed to join the festivities, even those who were MIA (aka, cardboard sister Sarah on her mission down under!)

Ah, the main event: Mary and Michael moments after being sealed for eternity; what a blessing to see how their mutual happiness glowed!

And the bridal party: all brothers and sisters plus the five of us who drove 13 hours to get there :)

The beauty of Oregon: Utah and Nevada please take notes, especially you, Nevada.

But before the happy couple could depart, the bridal party did deck out their "cart" (oh, the look on Michael's face when he saw the oreos under the saran wrap)

Gifts all around! The bridal party was Ready to Run

On the way home, we visited Crater lake!

And Oregon said goodbye "Parting is such sweet sorrow...."

Here's to an amazing couple, and one of the best roommates I used to have!
