The Big Day

Saturday was the big day.  We had a wedding lunch at Julie's parents house.  The girls loved sitting with the guests of honor.

The food was so good. After we ate Johanna sang, "All I ask of You," from Phantom of the Opera.  She has a beautiful voice and it was amazing.  After that they told the story of how they met and started dating up until they got engaged.  It was fun to hear about that and see them interact with each other while they told the story.  They really are such a great match.  

Cody and grandpa had fun talking politics.

I think both of them could talk for hours, so when you put the two of them together they had quite the discussion! I love that Cody is so passionate about politics and so well informed. After the lunch we went over to the hotel with Matt, Lori and Tiff and visited until it was time to go to the temple.

Their appointment was at 6 PM.  I loved seeing Caleb holding the door open for Johanna as they walked in.

I loved being in the temple again.  I felt so honored to be invited to their sealing.  It's so hard that they have to limit the number to so few.  I loved listening to all of the great things the sealer said and watching Caleb and Johanna be sealed for time and all eternity. 

They looked so good and so happy.

We took pictures outside the temple.  I'm sure I will get more pictures later when people share them, but I'll start with what I took. 

The Ham family is growing.  I love all of these people!

The temple grounds are beautiful! The wedding party looked so good.

Of course I couldn't pass up another picture of the groomsmen.

Jonah was so excited when Caleb asked him to be a groomsman.

Wyatt was thrilled too.  They were both so excited about it and couldn't wait to be there for the wedding.

I'm so happy for Caleb.  It is so fun to be his aunt and I'm so excited to see him so happy!

Here they are with the cousins.

Elena took a family picture for us. 

I love how they turned out and I love this family of mine.

The kids had fun chasing each other around while they were taking pictures.

Handsome guys!

They had to be quick with the pictures before they lost day light.  I snapped a picture of the temple as we were leaving.  It is such a beautiful temple.  I think it turned out to be a perfect day for them!
