Mr. and Mrs. Sarah Cox

My baby brother Doug just got married to Sarah. We welcome her to our family, having a younger sister is great. It was also a wonderful weekend.
The Cox family all stayed in this house on the lake. It was great, this is a view of the house from the lakeThis is the view of the lake from the house. Saturday the girls, attended a henna party that Sarah's friends had for her. We all got henna tattoos, and had a good time getting to know her friends and family. That evening there was a BBQ at her parents' house. Her mom showed the kids her horses and let them have a ride if they wanted.
But mostly it was a good evening of visiting and eating. Here is my big brother Paul, my Dad and his wife, Liz all hanging out before the BBQ.
The kids liked to pretend like they were sneaking into the alcohol, but we checked their drinks regularly to make sure it was just watered down soda.
Sunday morning we hung around the house with the family and a couple of Doug's friends that stopped by. We ate pancakes, took the kayak out for a ride and then started getting ready for the wedding.






Everyone looked very nice and presentable. This is my sister, Lori, Amy, Kara, and Josh

Here is Doug ready and heading out to get married.

I didn't take my camera in to the wedding, I am sure I will have access to some of the pictures taken and will share them then. But we had tons of fun, a wonderful ceremony, great dinner and lots of dancing. We got everyone in the family on the dance floor at least once. Kara requested the Cha Cha Slide and then when no one else knew it, she led the dance for everyone.

Monday everyone's plane was leaving in the afternoon so we all drove out to Niagara Falls and then Kara and I took off driving from there. Here is my Dad and Liz in front of the Falls.

It was a wonderful weekend, but extremely exhausting. I also missed out taking pictures of a lot of things because I was too busy having fun and didn't want to worry about pictures.
