Last Saturday, I took an adventure
to my cousin, Natalie’s, wedding. My family drove to Chico, California, and we got
ready at my grandmother’s house. Then we left to drive to Orland for the wedding.
After driving down several back country roads and crossing a short bridge, we
made it to the beautiful area where the outdoor wedding would be. We sat down
in our seats and admired the view of the large river (or small lake?) in front
of us. After going over the typical wedding stuff, the vows were said. While
the bride and groom were saying their vows, a man on a small fishing boat drove
around the lake, making the vows hard to hear. This caused everyone to laugh,
even my cousin and her very soon-to-be husband. After the ceremony, people sat
down at whichever table they chose, and were able to get drinks and hors d’oeuvres.
While waiting for the dinner to be served, my sisters and I explored the area. We
took silly pictures with the deer and turtle statues, and some in front of a
beautiful bridge over a pond. Later during the night, it started to rain, but
that didn’t dampen anyone’s spirits. I had lots of fun at the wedding, and even
though I missed the homecoming dance at Westmont, I still had a great time and
I’m very happy for my cousin’s new marriage.
(I don't like the pictures of me so here's my cousin and her husband!)
