long time comin...

a few weeks ago we had the opportunity to travel to cancun, mexico to celebrate a wedding a long time comin...for this cute couple

and let me tell you...it was a REALLY.ROUGH.WEEK.

but before i show pictures from the week, here are some from our kase exchange point:

we met grandpa, grandma & uncle chris at a burger king so kase could blow off some steam from riding in the car for 2.5 hours.  uncle chris was a good sport and climbed in the play place with kase!

after nana & papa picked up kase and molly and after mommy shed a few tears and demanded seventeen hugs from kase we went to omaha to stay overnight.  my love and i had a date to outback steakhouse (a real grown-up dinner!) for my birthday date.  then E.A.R.L.Y. the next morning we left for the airport!

we upgraded our room when we got to the hotel.

this is what we got

*sigh*

see?! i told you it was a rough week!

 i had the privilege of taking some senior pictures for this handsome brother-in-law 

 and what family vacation isn't complete without some family pictures? (minus the two kiddos) 

i also had the privilege of taking the wedding pictures for the happy couple
