Introducing Mr. and Mrs. Davis

Last Friday, my sister Stacy got married to Dallis Davis! They had a family dinner Thursday night at the Davis Family Ranch just above Salem (it was 'adults only', and Lexie had been fevered and really lethargic all week, and we didn't have a babysitter, so Scott ended up staying with the kids at his Grandparents house while I went to the dinner), we slept at Scott's grandparents house in Springville, made the treck down to the Manti Temple Friday morning. There were some disappointments when Stacy realized she forgot her veil, and then the Temple workers told her that her dress was "borderline" and so she wasn't able to wear her wedding dress to get married in...but the ceremony was beautiful, and everything was soon forgotten! After the Temple and pictures, (Lexie was already shot by then since she was still getting over being sick and was exhausted) we headed back to Springville, got some lunch, went back to Scott's grandparents house to change and get ready for the reception and then it was off to the reception center in Spanish Fork! Lexie was having such a rough time and was screaming and really fussy (which is TOTALLY not like her) and so we only made it through an hour of the reception and then we bailed and came home! All in all it was a beautiful...but HOT day!

We tried to get an attempt at an updated family picture, but the kids were tired and had had a long day, so they weren't too cooperative. The wedding colors were the green in Scott's shirts and the dusty blue in my shirt, with red accents...so we tried to match the kids the best we could...but those were hard colors to match! McKenzie was excited because we actually found a skirt that was a lot like all the bridesmaids, so she was excited to "match" us!
The manly men!
The original Allred Clan! 6 girls and one boy....well, the best we could do....Jim is currently serving a mission in Londrina Brazil! Gone...but not forgotten!
My poor little Lexie! Her fever broke a day before the wedding, but she was still exhausted!
