My brother Dean got married a few weekends ago and it was an awesome weekend. All 10 Clawson siblings were together for the first time in 9 years! It was fun to see Dean so happy, and we had a great time hanging out as a family.
The happy couple!
My sisters. Sigh.
Calvin was there for the whole weekend and then some. Double sigh. My brother got married on Feb 6th. Cal and I were married on Feb 5th, 9 years earlier in the same place!
This is ALL 10 Clawson siblings...from oldest to youngest. I am lucky number 4.
The Clawson grand kids (minus my sister's 3 kids in Virginia- we missed you!)
We tried several times to get family photos. They are all...unique?
Yeah, go ahead and laugh at the parents trying to control their kids with so much attitude! Where do they come from?
Finally, a decent shot? Oops. There's an extra cousin in the picture. Ha!
Waiting for the bride and groom...
3 little monkeys!
Grant had a good time at the reception. Here he is taking a little snooze on some decorative ottomans. I will never forget this reception. The bride's family brought in babysitters for the family! It was so nice to sit and chat with my family after a long day of hauling children- in nice clothes. So sometimes the kids would come and dance (and eat their 17th piece of cake), and sometimes they'd be in the kid's room. It was wonderful!
Yeah for family weddings!

I'm so impressed that all 10 siblings made it to the occasion. That's super impressive in my book. And reception babysitters? WOW, that's awesome! Planned by someone who has lots of potentially disruptive nieces and nephews :) Who cares? It's a GREAT idea!
You've sure got some posers..GRANT. Isn't it amazing how much growth occurs in that amount of time. I saw in a movie recently that marriage is where you get you masters, PH-D, and doctorate of your spouse. Way to go! You guys all look great.
congrats to Dean! how is it that he's old enough to be married? fun to have EVERYONE together!
Congrats on the big 9, that is so great. When ever you are ready to move back to vegas we will be here with open arms :)
