Chad & Whitney's Wedding

This weekend we headed down to Branson to Silver Dollar City to attend the wedding of Chad Smith and Whitney Crow. It was very cold, the majority of the people there were in carharts, overalls, snow pants, you name it. Then there was all of us in our dresses and nice clothing.

They were married at the Wilderness Church in the middle of the park.

Chris and Jill - newly engaged as well - Congratulations!


This is Kale, Chad, Whitney's father, Whitney, and her sister. Again - it was very cold!

Chad and Whitney saying their vows. We weren't allowed to use flashes so the photos aren't so great with the window in the back.

The best view I could get of the back of Whitney's dress. It was very nice and she looked beautiful in it.


They had a carriage ride around the park announcing their wedding.

Cutting the cake.

The after party at Waxy O'Shea's, an Irish Pub on the Branson Landing - my favorite. We hung out there until about 11. Chad and Whitney also got their first dance compliments of Jenn & Dave so that was nice and we think they enjoyed it. There was an Irish band there that was good entertainment.

The party headed on to the Piano Bar after that however Tim and I returned to the hotel to crash due to not feeling all so great. It turned out to be a good idea as Tim still has the "sickies" as Abby likes to call it.

This will probably be the last post until after Christmas. We'll be starting our Iowa/Illinois tour for visiting the relatives. Abby is pretty excited about the snow in Iowa.

Happy Holidays to everyone and safe travels.
