Jared & Melanie's Wedding

On Saturday July 11th Nate's brother Jared got sealed for time and all eternity in the Las Vegas Temple to Melanie Hansen, now Melanie Peruch. The sealing was so wonderful. Both Jared and Melanie looked so beautiful. They make a great couple and we are glad that we got to share the day with them and witness their sealing. The reception was later that same day. It was lots of fun. Nate's family, his Mom, Dad, and two sisters, Katelyn and Melanie stayed with us at our house for the weekend. It was lots of fun. We enjoyed spending time together and making grip-loads of pasta and potato salad for the reception (which was way to much for everyone to eat). Overall it was great and we are glad that Jared and Melanie are so happy together.

If any of you have ever been to the Las Vegas Temple you might have seen the little garden area that is in the Temple waiting area. Well we finally found out how to get in there and we got a picture too!
Melanie looked so beautiful and the red shoes added a stylish touch to her amazing dress.

Our friends Brent and Jessica. They are getting married in October! Love must be in the air or something. Theirs will be the 5th wedding we get invited to this year! Thank goodness it's in Vegas so we won't have to travel.

They are such wonderful friends and we just love them so much!

how funny that there are 2 melanie peruches. I love that pic you have in the side bar with Guiseppe. What a sweet little guy. I think about him often. He is so lucky to have wonderful parents like you and Nate.
