Rain, rain, Go away, Come again some other day!

The Holt wedding has finally come and gone and all I can say is that we had a great time and made a lot of wonderful memories with our friends!
To start the weekend we drove up through Provo Canyon to Midway for the rehearsal luncheon. The drive through the canyon was beautiful and I am determined to make that drive agian in the future. ANd to add to everything there was a constant sprinkle that made everything look so GREEN! The rain was beautiful scenery-wise, but it undoubtedly caused much stress throughout the entire weekend. When we finally made it to Midway we had our rehearsal at the Johnson Mill(we found out later that it was ranked the #5 Most Romantic Inn in the US)after which we drove to PArk City where we had our hotel reservations for Friday night (thanks to my sister-in-law Britney). After spending time walking through Park City I have decided that we will either 1)make it an annual trip or 2) buy property there(this option will probably only be accomplished after our huge Lotto win).
After returning to Midway for the wedding preparation the stress began. Karly and Matt had for the past 6 months been planning on an outdoor wedding and all of their plans were smashed with a 80% chance of showers throughout the day. All the decorations had to be moved indoors and tents had to be purchased to cover the seats at the ceremony. After all the blood, sweat, and tears, and two days of straight rain, we had a mairacle...15 minutes before the ceremony the clouds parted and not another raindrop fell for the rest of the night! The photographer even commented that the clouds made the lighting "perfect." Here are some pictures of the wonderful night...

Karly and Matt invited us and a few other of their close friends and family to spend the night at Johnson's Mill...our rooms were AMAZING
