Markie is married! Sure it happened on the hottest day of the year, at least it wasn't raining, right? Yeah I still think it was perfect. Everything was absolutely beautiful!
All four kids were in the wedding, Jer officiated, and their outfits were picked out long ago, I just decided to wait to iron them until the most scorching part of the day when I could have been swimming with the rest of my family. One of these day's I'll learn that procrastination doesn't pay off...or not.
We waited for pictures in our air conditioned car as long as possible...and you can see why!
The Bride and Groom with their nieces and nephew.
Jer's reminder to look down during the kiss so he's not looking silly in the background of their pictures.
Original Smith girls!
The fam, full of professional picture takers, little ham's and distracted ones.
Amy Chris and baby!!!!
I got the next four picture's from here
The ceremony was at The Rose Garden at North Clackamas Park at 7:30pm
The kids did perfect. They got right up to where the chairs start and Taylor started giggling and they all got caught up in it and joined right on it. It was so sweet.
Some of their friends sang and did a beautiful job.
The kids were mesmerized, especially Taylor.
Payden and Lincoln kind of started it but they are all in this stage where 'you may kiss the bride' sends them into nervous hysterics, eyes covered, burring their faces in their chairs, squealing, exclaiming 'I can't watch this', yeah that's not embarrassing at all...subtle kids, subtle. (Good job following your notes honey)
The reception was at Kirsten's church she grew up at, and again she did a great job, brown paper covered the tables and later there were crayons placed on the tables for doodling.
Kirsten's dad built the flower boxes and Kirsten planted them in the spring. They were growing in her backyard 'til last Saturday.
Mark and Kirsten aren't big fan's of cake so they did an ice cream bar instead and it had everything, the little Schumacher's thoroughly enjoyed their treat, let's face it, so did the big Schumacher's!
The kids got to take picture's during the reception and actually got some pretty good shots. The rest of these are straight from the eyes of my kido's! Lincoln was one of the guys all night long.
Markie was sweet and didn't shove cake all over her face, I was very proud! Also, if you can't tell he's holding the piece they cut with no plate and they put the slice back in the cake after they were done, it was pretty funny.
I can't get over how grown up both Payden and Lincoln look in these pictures.
So excited she's their Aunt now!
Payden's doodle illustrating her and Aunt Kirsten
Hailey loved the bridesmaids, especially Kirsten't best friend Machaela!

How did I not know Amy was pregnant? SOOO exciting!! When is she due?
The picture of Jer behind the kissing couple becomes quite funny when you know what's wrriten in his notes.
