My cousin Fritz got married!!

More wedding fun!

This summer has been crazy with weddings! After my cousin Astrid got married in June, we had a month free in July, and then August got crazy. The day after the Seafair Parade, my mom hosted a shower for Fritz and my future cousin-in-law, Alana. The theme was "camping", so we had some traditional camping food, like s'mores in the backyard and my dad barbequed some delicious salmon! Here are Alana and Fritz playing a game where they had to finish the the lyrics of what we thought were some well known campfire songs.

Guests of the shower gather around the campfire we made in my parent's backyard to roast some s'mores. Would you believe that it was the first time some people had ever made s'mores?! The people are counter clockwise: Alana's mom, one of Alana's bridesmaids, my dad, Alana's brothers girlfriend, Alana's dad, my cousin Bryn, Alana, Alana's brother Jamie.
