Colorado Road Trip, Part 4--Fort Collins + Rehearsal Activities

Thursday was Wedding Eve! We enjoyed our hotel breakfast and packed up our hotel room. Before the wedding events began, we took the boys to the Fort Collins Museum of Discovery. It was lots of fun and a great way to entertain the boys!
We grabbed some lunch at Lucile's Creole Cafe before heading to LaPorte to the Tapestry House.
The families were staying at the Tapestry House Wedding Eve and Wedding night, so we spent some time unpacking, exploring the house and getting ready for the 3:30pm rehearsal!
The bridesmaids arrived first and enjoyed some alone time with Audrey.
The groomsmen arrived with tuxes in tow!
Big Bro was a little shy with all the people around, so Uncle Jeremy and Aunt Audrey spent some alone time with him to give him his gift!
Rehearsal!
It started sprinkling a little bit right when the rehearsal was supposed to start, so we stalled a little bit inside the house. It stopped raining, but we had cute umbrellas, just in case.
Lil' Bro was in need of a nap, so he didn't really participate in the rehearsal. He just caused trouble.
Adorable!
I "practiced" standing up for the readings and suggested I might have my camera to take pictures. :)
After the rehearsal, we headed to the Rehearsal Dinner at the Agave Room at the Rio.
Lil' Bro was very interested in the power button on the sound system.

We spent a little time practicing the special wedding dance!
Cousin Karin was in the US from Sweden and arrived at the dinner just in time to enjoy some food and fun!
For our wedding, I made Jeremy a "Best Man" patch. It was a reference to the movie You, Me, and Dupree where Owen Wilson said he thought he needed a patch with a lightning bolt to distinguish him as the Best Man from all the other groomsmen. Jeremy passed the patch along to Nicholas!
Jeremy, Justin and James grew up together and have been friends for a long time!
