tied the climbing rope knot

I have two apologies to make.

Yes, I know it has been FOREVER since I blogged. Secondly, my last post may have mislead some of you to believing that I will be leaving Provo soon. Not so. I was simply taking holiday for Thanksgiving.
Alright, this is for all you people out there who should have/wanted to attend the Weiler/Wilson wedding.
I'll give you the play by play.

The day started around 7:30am. We had to wake up and get to the Manti temple by 10:30 because Spence forgot his temple clothes here in SLC. Kind of a crucial item to forget, no? We arrived and dropped my mom and dad off and crusied around Manti and Ephraim. We attempted to hit up the local McDonalds and were sorely disapointed when we found out they stopped serving breakfast at 10:30. What the heck. Can't a girl get a hashbrown?
We went back to the temple around noon, and in the 8 degree cold waited for Mr. and Mrs. Weiler to come out. Annie was gorgeous with a simple white dress and lace top, wild flowers in her hair and white thermal underwear. I've never seen Spencer so smitten and happy, not even about a new piece of climbing gear. [note: Annie's ring is elk ivory, Spencer's is black tungsten]

It was freezing. Did I mention it was FREEZING? Pictures were quick for the family and then we headed to lunch. The happy couple of course stayed later and took some fun pictures of them bouldering the temple wall. Totally appropriate, even with Annie in her high heels.

Later that night was the reception at Mapleton City Hall. I only have two things to say here: Tasty meatballs. I was robbed during the bouquet toss.

The photographer wanted the three Weiler sisters to stand around Spence and give him a kiss. We thought she was joking. She wasn't. We tried to play along but it was just too weird. My mom explained to the photographer, "They just don't show love that way." It was really awkward at first and then about 30 minutes later, extremely funny.

We opted for something more like this.

Cute mother and father of the groom.


Are those girls related?! Shout out to my home girl Lisa.

The whole day was totally Annie and Spencer, even down to the piece of climbing rope garter he pulled off her leg.

Now that Spencer is dead to us, the three of us will have to stick together.

I am so glad you posted this. I for sure wanted to be there (and obviously wasn't) so I'm glad to get the catch-up version. Beautiful bride and groom. Everyone looks great. I love the picture of you 3 laughing. And seriously, Lisa... is she my sister or yours?

Excellent breakdown. If you're gonna call it a play-by-play it needs more terms like "Yes" and "Score" and "Thanks for nothing, Booner"

Need to hear more about how one boulders the temple wall.

You've been missed. Your public demands a similar post from wedding reception No. 2
