Callister Family Reunion

The 2009 reunion was in Merced this year. It was tons of fun! The theme was "We're all in this together." And yes- we all learned the words and dance to the High School Musical song. We went tot eh cabin in Twain Harte, took a bus to the beach, went canoeing on Yosemite Lake, and swam in the pool. I was there the whole time, but unfortunately Brad stayed home and studied for the CPA exam. We actually found out yesterday that he passed the first 3 with awesome scores!!! Now we just have to wait another month to find out about the 4th- Way to go Brad!
Here are some random pictures from the reunion.

My Best Friend's Wedding

The second week in July, I took a trip back to California for two special events. First, was my best friend from high school, Leslie's wedding. She got married in beautiful Berkeley, CA. The ceremony was beautiful. She looked gorgeous! The reception was in a charming hotel and was so fun! My sister, Cami, was great to pick me up from teh airport and go as my date. Since I have been married, I really love going to weddings and listening to the ceremonies. They remind me that I have things to continually work on but that marriage is such a wonderful thing! Thanks Leslie for sharing!The place settings were beautiful. The little goody bags had almonds, mangos, and chocolate chips- YUM!The lucky groom!The beautiful bride!

Two friends.
