Family Wedding in FDL

Patrick's cousin Rachel got married in Mexico in February and then hosted a reception in 
Fond du Lac when they got home. 
I had never been to a Destination Reception before - and quickly realized I loved it! 
Everyone was so relaxed and it was really just a big party that gives the bride a second opportunity to wear her beautiful wedding dress! 


I took a picture of their wedding photo at the reception - so happy! 

As you would expect - the Ellestad family had a terrific time at the reception.

We were one of the only families (in our big family) that left the kids at home. 
It was pretty funny when other cousins realized we were "free" - they were a little jealous! 
I loved this scene - 3 little boys with phones/ipads - definitely helped, but we were happy that our kiddos were home with a babysitter! 


And a just over 1/2 way prego shot of the Jen(n)s. 
The family really liked comparing our bellies and marveling that we are due on the SAME DAY! 


Sunday morning we hung out at Ted and Carol's and had brunch as a family. 
Allie and James had fun together - and are working on "sharing" the piano.
