The Last Wedding

Yesterday we celebrated BZ and Laura's wedding in the Salt Lake Temple. BZ is the last of our 10 children to be married and it was a milestone I'm not sure we contemplated hapenning this soon. But it was a great occasion to celebrate.

All of the Hauley children were able to attend and Kelli represented my children. It's difficult for everyone to be able to get together at the same time ~ especially with 3 weddings in two and a half months!



At the reception later in the day, we captured a photo with all of the Hauley children, some of the spouses, and all Hauley (12) grandchildren. If you combine this photo with my earlier post of Kelli's wedding you will be able to see all 15 grandchildren. Even with several photos ~ there wasn't one with all children looking at the camera. Oh, well.


Richard and I enjoyed the evening, after most of the work was done. Maren, do you recognize my dress?

Jenny was the official photographer and we hope to have her professional pictures soon. For now, I'll post pics from my camera ~ we did some individual "family" pictures. So, officially, here's Karen and Richard.

I'm posting the English family picture as they were gracious enough to host the reception in their yard. Bill and Claire have worked really hard to have everything in perfect condition. The yard was beautiful.


It was a great time for the Thatcher family right before the reception officially began. The mailman brought a surprise and Laura's brother was able to open his mission call surrounded by family. San Antonio, Texas Spanish speaking. Felicitaciones, elder.
