Easter Weekend Fun

The Tokarz gang took a road trip over Easter weekend. We drove to Burnet, TX for my cousin's wedding. We had a great time. This was the Lowery side of the family. My Aunt Libby's ( Dad's sister) daughter Elsie, married her longtime boyfriend, Brad. It was a great reunion of Aunts, Uncles and Cousins. The wedding was in a CAVERN!! Yes... a cave...a big dark hole in the ground...but it wasn't too dark due to all the torches, tealights and other accessory lighting!

The wedding was at Longhorn Caverns State Park. It was a really neat setup-- a beautiful wedding and fun reception, despite the cool, windy weather. The kids had cute new clothes-- covered for awhile by jackets, sweaters and blankets. Then after we ate ( yummy bbq!!) the Park staff and DJ graciously moved everything inside to the gift shop/snack bar area, where we danced , laughed and enjoyed cake ( which was all Jerzy and Shelby were waiting for!!).

The next morning, after the Easter bunny magically made deliveries to our hotel room, most of the Lowery clan gathered for the Holiday Inn free breakfast . After visiting and hugging and saying our goodbyes...we hit the road for home. We stopped for the required bluebonnet pictures and some lunch, making it home in time to have Nana and Papa over for a visit and dinner.

My silly girls!

This was the best shot I got of either of the girls' new dresses.

I've been wondering how the wedding went. Glad it was good and you all look fantastic! Great pictures, and I love your new blog background!
