WiscAAnsin

Last week we went to Wisconsin to see these two get married: aren't they cute?

{I love weddings}

It was A LOT of work, but turned out absolutely beautiful. They were married on an island (the same island we and Michaels bro had our WI receptions - ah, memories)

Rylee wished she could be a bridesmaid. . . . . All in good time.

The wedding was at the end of the week, and the time prior to, that wasn't spent planning, was replaced with chatting, playing games, and eating - my favorites.

Our first day there was the least 'structured' so we decided to have a picnic at irvine park. Michael asked "is that the park with the animals?" the answer was yes and I assumed 'animals' meant statues of bears and elk that would, of course, try to eat my husband.

I was right.

Partially.

(Apparently Uncle Michael's face makes a great handle.)There also was a bunch of exhibits for REAL animals. It was basically a zoo, only better because

A. it was free and

B. you could pet/feed a fair amount of the animals

The cougars were probably my favorite. My nephew said "look, its a BYU Cougar" haha. and the fact that when we walked around the pillars, it would growl at us through the glass and show us his teeth.
