We went to a wedding this weekend that was SO fun! When I told the kids we were going to Lethbridge there were loud cheers....then I said we were going there for a wedding and the grumbling started. I told them though that this wasn't going to be like most weddings - it was a cowboy wedding. "Can we wear jeans?" Sure! "Can we wear runners?" Yup! ....and the cheering started all over again. They weren't disappointed with the whole event either.
Allen's cousin, Karen Tolman, got married to Randy Kramer. They got married at Fort Whoop Up in Lethbridge. Karen didn't walk down the aisle - she came in on a horse! I think it kind of stressed poor Uncle Grant out - not that she was riding a horse..but that he had this saddled horse that he didn't really know and every kid wanted to sit on and ride and pet the darn thing. He was nervous about someone getting hurt....and the kids were very eager to check it out. The horse was just fine for Karen though! She came in and went down the aisle without any problems.
The parents had a great time visiting with everyone and the kids found LOTS to do!
The best part was the candy cannon! Some people hand out wedding favors at the end of the night....but at a cowboy wedding a candy cannon makes much more sense!! The cannon was made by Karen's friend and used real gun powder!
Run!! Get all you can!!
We had a TERRIFIC time! Thanks Karen and Randy!!
