Kara + Matt = Mr. & Mrs. Payne

Saturday was a busy day for us.  The first annual Celestine Street Fest was being held down the road from our house.  We helped with the 5K run/walk in the morning and then got ready for a very big event.  That event would be the wedding of Brady's cousin Kara and her fiance, Matt.  We were so excited to celebrate their big day with them!

We made it to the ceremony with about fifteen minutes to spare and quickly took our seats.  It was a beautiful ceremony.  They made sure to include Hope and Ben, and that made us smile.  Here are a few pictures of the ceremony.

And here are some pictures of some of our favorite kiddos. 

After all that cuteness, we were off to the reception.  The reception was beautiful!  I think some of the most thoughtful toasts were given by the matron of honor, best man, and father of the bride.  There were definitely a few tears by the guests.  I've already said the reception was beautiful, but everything abut it was, well, perfect!  We had such a great time.  

Congratulations, Kara and Matt!  We cannot wait to see what the future has in store for you and wish you many, many happy and healthy years of wedded bliss!
