This last weekend, I took a trip down to Cedar City for Kim Walton's (now Kim Stubbs) wedding. Actually, it was in Springdale, UT which is right by Zions National Park. It was a beautiful setting for a wedding. I drove down with two other girls and we all had a fun time. We stayed at the Majestic View Lodge and mostly did wedding stuff the whole time we were there. I was one of 6 bridesmaids and when we got there Friday evening, we had a rehearsal of the wedding and practiced walking down the aisle. Pretty simple really. The wedding was on Saturday evening and all that morning we helped with decorations and setting up. Mom Horspool (Kathy) was there doing the flowers and so I helped her with the arrangments... I was told I did a great job. However, I thought most of my arrangements were kinda ugly. But Kathy fixed them right up and suddenly they were lovely. She's AMAZING. Besides the centerpieces that I did which I was pretty much amazing at (hahaha), I think I only liked one or 2 of the other arrangements I did. Well in the end, everything turned out great and all the decorations were awesome. We also got to see Rachel (Adams) Nichols and Matt who came out as well, which was great since I hadn't seen Rach in over a year! It's always nice to meet up with old friends. Besides the stinkin hot weather we were having, the whole wedding was very nice and the dinner/reception afterwards were great too. Those Walton's sure know how to throw a party! Anyway, we are all happy for Kim and Phil and they were just beaming all evening.
Everyone trying to help Kim in one way or another.
Tiffany, Me, Kim, Rachel Nichols. I was actually sewn into my dress because the dumb zipper was broken! Kim's sister also was sewn into her dress and Rachel's dress wasn't even zipped up all the way, but she was wearing a black top underneath so you couldn't tell. Crazy dresses.
The master, Kathy Horspool, hard at work.

Nancy!!! How are you!? I was so excited to find this and see some pics of Kim. I am far far away in New Hampshire and figured she was still on her honeymoon so I haven't called her. She looks beautiful. What are you up to this summer?
Hey pooops, you look great in that dress. Whenever I see pictures, I feel bad that I didn't send Heather, but she shouldn't have got knocked up. I'm saving all our money to pay cash for the baby. :) Anyways, hope you had fun, looks like you did, it's funny that you call Mom H Kathy. I call her mom for obvious reasons. Anyways, seeya dude.
Hi Nancy, It was so much fun putting the flowers together with you. You are a natural talent. We need to do it again some time. We missed Heather, Jason, but I'll settle for Christmas! (Mom H)
I'm sad that I missed it! The wedding, but also you working along side my mom doing flowers. Now that is priceless!
Well good thing you had lots of practice decorating in Victoria by setting up at Ritchie's wedding reception! Who unsewed you from your dresses?
Hooray for weddings! Always fun! The arrangements look OK to me, but then again I'm not exactly a flower expert...
You and Kim look so beautiful!!! I loved the bridesmaids dresses!
