The day after Christmas BJ, Joshua, Josiah, and I flew to Colorado for my cousin, Big Justin's wedding. This was an exciting and crazy time! Mostly crazy trying to deal with the to-do's of Christmas and getting packed and ready for a trip. Even though I can multi-task, I usually have to focus on one event and then work on the next. Thankfully we didn't fly out until the afternoon. :)
Once we landed and got our rental car we met my dad for dinner. The last time we saw him was the summer of 2010 so this was his first time to meet the twins. We had a nice time visiting before making the long drive to Wray. (A place I love....pretty sure I've mentioned that a time or two!)
It was so good to see family again. I really wish we could have stayed longer and brought all the boys with us. Our big boys were so sad to miss out. On a drive to let the twins nap we stopped by my mom and Aunt's old school. It was hard to relive the many memories of my mother. This was where she grew up and where she took us for our vacations every year.
BJ and I are always fascinated with the plains....you can see for miles. Definitely a change of scenery from our part of Oregon.

Justin was so sweet to let a bunch of us crash at his house. A little crazy sharing one bathroom with everyone, but great to hang out and visit with my Dodsworth cousins. We played a movie to help calm the twins down before bed. They were enjoying being free from cribs on this trip. :)
The big day! I actually missed the whole ceremony because I watched the bins in the nursery. However, I had such a great time visiting with my cousin-in-law, Priscilla. And, everyone told me BJ did a great job marrying them. :)

Here I am with my cousins, Duaine and Doyle. I have many memories with these two. It still weirds me out to be a "grown-up" now with them. :)
The trip was a lot of fun. BJ and I had a great time together and it was neat to focus on our youngest two. Congratulations, Justin and Fawn. We are so glad we could share your special day with you!
