Brian's nephew Adam and his bride Shannon were the stars of a lovely wedding ceremony held outdoors July 11 2009 at Paddlewheel Park in Vernon British Columbia. Their wedding provided an opportunity for us to gather our own clan together, if only for a couple of days. There is no better feeling for grandparents than seeing all of their grandchildren (all six of them) socializing together. Here Lily and Avery enjoy a quiet moment at the post-ceremony reception. Taegan and her daddy enjoy some quiet time together. Peyton, Lily, and big-sister Avery take a break from the reception. Taegan hangs out with Daddy while Cousin Riley seems thrilled to be admiring something she's just picked up off the ground (Riley does love bugs but this appears to be a flower). Riley enjoys sitting with her daddy at the dinner table. Dana displays her usual calm demeanor while dealing simultaneously with a five-year-old and two-year-old twins. Do we detect even the slightest bit of fatigue? Impossible! Was that before or after Grandma Kathy stepped up to extinguish the fire that somehow flamed up from a candle at the "main" Warner table? Karen on the right tries to help while Kim on the left simply enjoys the moment, since her Riley was seated at the next table and clearly innocent. Jake enjoys feeding Cousin Riley some snacks. Of course, there was more to the weekend than the wedding itself. There was a trip to the beach. * There was time for mommies to relax for a few minutes. There was swimming in the motel pool. There was a special time for all of the cousins to celebrate Riley's upcoming second birthday...

Lots of great moments and great memories for couple of grandparents...
