Eric and Andraea got married! August 12, 2016

Well, I am a MOTHER-IN-LAW!  (What?)  And guess what else?  I have a DAUGHTER-IN-LAW!  I have never been able to say a sentence with the word "I" and "daughter" in it at the same time.  It's actually quite exciting! 

So, Eric and Andraea (Shelley) were married on August 12, 2016 in the Manti LDS Temple.  It was an absolutely beautiful day! 



After the sealing, everyone who was there came out to the front of the temple to wait for Eric and Andraea to come out.  So these next few pictures, we're just all kind-of waiting and hanging out.

The groom's parents....that's us. :)  (Melissa and Todd)


And here they come! :)




I love Eric's facial expressions!  That funny kid!




And right about here, Eric realized that he was stepping all over Andraea's dress...


So, he picked it up, like any good gentleman should, and made sure that she held onto it from then on...

And then Eric looked up and said, "Can I have a do over?"  It was really funny!  


Of course Andraea forgave him right away! :)


Then the hugging began...


See?  I told you I was a mother-in-law!  Here's the proof!



This is Andraea and her Mom, Chalyse Shelley.


And Eric and his new "Mom."  


I love this picture of Andraea and her Dad, Randy Shelley.  Such a sweet moment.

This picture was funny!  Everyone was supposed to have a "disgusting" look on their faces while Eric and Andraea shared a kiss.  Fortunately I don't think the kids had to pretend at all.  (The disgust came pretty easy to all of them!) :) 


Sweet Moriah Johnson!

Matt and Zach Wall


Anissa and Rob Wall

Brad 
(Funny story:  Brad forgot his tie, so he borrowed his son's bowtie for the temple.  I seriously thought that's what he brought.  Hilarious!  It was really tiny. HA!)


Grandma and Grandpa Johnson


Grandpa and Judy Jones


Decorations at the reception...










This was one of my favorite things at the wedding reception.  Eric always says to Andraea, "You are my greatest adventure."  I love how they put that saying on a big globe.  So sweet!







The wedding was a huge success and everything went perfectly.  We are so excited to welcome a new addition into the Jones family!

 (A daughter! Who would have thought? I've waited a long time for this!) 

Congratulations to Eric and Andraea!  Good luck as you begin your new life together!  :)  We love you both!
