The Boyer Bunch: Scott and Jen's wedding

My husband's brother Scott and his lovely fiance Jennifer tied the knot this weekend in Fife, Wa. We left Spokane early Friday morning, and got into town about 11am. We went straight to Scott and Jen's house and hopped into the process getting everything together. Chad helped out the groom and I helped out the bride. It was a really fun process and so rewarding. My sister in law Jen had already baked her cake which was to die for. It was white chocolate with raspberry filling, so good! :) She was pretty bogged down with things to get done, so I got to do the honors of icing and decorating her wedding cake. It was such a fun process. I love talking to fellow cake decorators too. It's like a secret language! lol By Friday eve we were pooped when we stumbled into bed at around 1:30am. The next morning was Saturday and the day of the big event. I spent a few more hours on the cake, whilst Meg helped one of Jen's sis' out with flower arranging. She was so helpful! Chad made multiple trips to the store along with many other duties. It was so fun though. When the wedding couple are people you love and admire, it doesn't feel like work, it feels like... I don't know, maybe it is work, but it's laced with a strong sense of pride as well! As the wedding drew closer, and the weather got hotter, it was time to get into my bridesmaid dress. It had been so warm, that the dress that had fit when I left my home on Friday morning, no longer fit Saturday eve. Every time I breathed I ended up inadvertently pushing my zipper down in the process. No problem, just don't breathe right? Yeah.... right... good thing we had wraps! It felt so right to be part of such a beautiful process, and to be honest, it made me love my husband even more, as I saw him work so hard for his brother's wedding. I will definately NOT take him for granted. After the wedding ceremony, we bridesmaids raced to change into cool and comfy clothes, while things got set up for dinner. After dinner, Chad made his best man speech and I felt such pride to call him MY man! He looked so handsome! We got lots of compliments on the cake and I felt such proud to say I had decorated it. It came out just the way I had wanted it to. After all the pomp and circumstance came the real party! Chad and I let loose! I learned that my husband has only one dance move, and it is a very obnoxious one, so I danced for a while, but headed into the house after the 10th or 15th time my overly alcoholified husband tried to do the dice roll move on me! lol... I ended up passing out in Scott and Jen's son Hunter's room in his play tent where I located the only pillow and blanket I could find. Jen and Chad were the last people standing at what turned out to be a most incredible party! So happy for those two finding eachother. Glad to have more nieces and nephews too! :)
