Let Freedom Ring! Party on Fry Family...Party On

This year for the 4th of July my dad was DYING to go to a water park so we decided to go to Raging Waters on Saturday in celebration of the 4th. We also decided that it would be more fun if we invited cousins to come with us. So we had another amazing party with my mom's side of the family at Raging Waters and followed it up with a barbaque at my parent's house after. The water park was not super crowded and I think everyone loved, as my little cousin said as we left the park "this has been so fun!" And I completly agree even if I was too scared to go on any of the major waterslides.:) Here are a few pictures from our adventures for your enjoyment...



Oh and yes your eyes are correct that is McKay stuck inside a tower of intertubes. Love him!
And all of the brave souls in this lovely picture....
Went off of these crazy rides,(check out the pictures below for proof)...


Crazy! Now notice I was not featured in this daring activity, I was just the family photographer.



After Raging Waters we had a yummy YUMMY family dinner. The weather was perfect and we all enjoyed relaxing and eating as much food as possible... at least that is what McKay and I did. Now before I show the next set of pictures I have to give credit where credit is due... I did not take these pictures they were taken by this cute little guy. Thanks Dayton!



On your mark, get set, go!
Silly Grandpa!


And he took their picture even if they didn't want it taken... sorry Bradley and Trevor
After eating we watched old family videos in our family room. Man are we cheesy! But it is just so fun to laugh at each other every chance we get. I think we need a bigger family room if we want to do this for much longer... I am so thankful for this free country that we are so blessed to live in so that we can worship, dress, and act the way that we choose. I am SO proud to be an AMERICAN!

Jesse and Natalie's Wedding

Sorry I have not posted in FOREVER! Or atleast forever for me. I have been meaning to post but their hasn't been a break in the partying long enough to post so forgive me, and I will try and catch you all up on what has been going on in the lives of the Paces. :)

To begin with I would like to happily announce that last Friday, July 2nd Jesse and Natalie got MARRIED! The whole day was wonderful and so fun with all the family around. The night before the wedding Mckay's mom and two of his siblings slept over at our cute LITTLE apartment. So it was an interesting experience getting ready in the morning but we made it work and it was so fun to hang out with them. They got married at 10:oo a.m. at the Logan Temple. The ceremony was beautiful and I was just SO EXCITED that I was able to be at the actual wedding this time. Here are the cute couple as they come out of the temple for the first time as Mr. and Mrs. Pace for time and ALL eternity!
And ofcourse everyone has to give hugs and greet the Bride and Groom...




Luckly I was able to grab a quick picture of the happy couple before we started the picture taking marathon. So Happy! P.S. I also LOVED natalie's dress and it looked perfect on her so here is a snap shot of the back of it. Gorgous!

While taking group pictures I was able to take some too. The temple was so beautiful and even though it was alittle warm I would take that over the freezing temperatures from our wedding.
The first ones are of us waiting for them to come out of the temple.


The rest of these are while waiting around for all of the other pictures. Sorry there are so many!
McKay and James
All the family hanging out together
Preston is such a goofball!

The only downside to the weather was that it was slightly windy and it was sometimes difficult to keep my dress and hair in the right spot...For example...

And here are a few more random ones from the temple...





After the temple we all headed over to the Old Rock Church Reception center for their wedding luncheon. They decided to not have a reception so the luncheon kind of took its place. It was very fancy and the food tasted great. Here they are at the beginning of the lunch being introdued as husband and wife
Sorry their aren't any pictures of while we were eating, I was too busy enjoying the food. :) But here is our nephew by the pretty ice sculpture of the Logan Temple...
After the dinner we watched their amazing wedding video. During it, McKay said... "wow it is like a music video!" haha It will definitely be very special to have in ten years. Along with the wedding video they also cut the cake. Then when everything was said and done we chatted for a few more minutes and then they headed out for some sweet honeymooning. Lol What a great day! Congrats Jesse and Natalie!




Thanks for reading have a great night!
