Kirk's Wedding

Congratulations to Kirk and Brooke on their successfully completed wedding this past weekend. Here are some pictures:

I was told by master biologist Scott Warsen that the trunk of this tree is green because it actually uses it to photosynthesize. They kind of look like they are painted.

The wedding party.

Scott and I rolling out the paper walkway.

I walked Brooke's grandma out of the ceremony. Guess what her name was!

Kate, Sam, and starting to protrude baby.

Our best men speech went well thanks to Scott's strange humor that continues to entertain.

They leave. We blow bubbles.

We made a stop at a national park I didn't know was there. Nice place. Kind of the same thing everywhere, but it was great to stop and see.

Lots of crazy plants.

Kate and cacti.

Katie and I took the top of the cake home for them to put in our freezer. People liked to look at us funny and ask questions. Every time I told them it was wedding cake they thought we just got married.

The Good The Bad and the Ugly

I have so many party photos that if I waited until I perfected each one you would never get the chance to see them. So I put them all on my website. To see them go to sportelphotography.com enter the client section and use the password, DadParty (case sensitive, no spaces). You will be able to see most of the ones I took of the party. Be patient, they are larger files so they will take some time to load the slide show. Hope you enjoy!

Rule #3

It's not what you know it's who you know. Thanks Great Uncle Bob!!

Wow! tons of photos to go through.... thought I'd post these first. Not in correct order, but hoping everyone is represented. Could use a good spray-down with a fire hose again today....
