Preston & Rochelle's wedding

I am quite behind on my blogging! On May 1st, Preston & Rochelle got married! But that morning, I went to Taylor's baptism. Taylor was the most beautiful little girl, and that has not changed as she's gotten older. I thought her dress was beyond adorable, and the baptismal service, was so sweet, ran by her 2 older sisters, Macey & Ashlyn, and even her younger sister, Josie sang. It was very sweet.

Denene & McKay were in town that weekend so it was nice to see them too, even if it was only for a little while!

On to Preston's wedding!
If you're reading this blog, then you likely already know who Preston is, but if you don't, he is my very best guy friend. We've been great friends since we were 14 and I am thrilled to know he is so happy. His wife Rochelle, is so cute, and I just really love her.

Preston asked me to give a "best man" toast at the reception. They didn't have a wedding party, but I was honored to be a part of the event, and say a few heartfelt words, even if he did ask me only 4 days before ;)

The escape vehicle

After the reception a group of us went to Tachos in Gresham, where we used to go in our early 20's quite a bit. It hadn't changed much, but we couldn't stand it long. The music was deafening and after 10 they pat everyone down before entering because there has been so much gang violence in the area. Yikes!

Garon, the karaoke king was there for awhile with us, making his customary drink flair.
