this past weekend my COUSIN CALEB got married in CANADA.
we traveled to CARLYLE, saskatchewan and stayed
at CLEARVIEW CHRISTIAN CAMP for the wedding weekend.
CALEB and amanda live in COLORADO, but she is CANADIAN
and we were able to travel to her home COUNTRY for the exciting CEREMONY.

AND what a wonderful cousin-in-law she is.
AMANDA is full-of-life, joyful, and a wonderful ADDITION to our family.
even more importantly, she is a beautiful match for caleb
AND we couldn't be happier for the AWESOME newlyweds!
it was an AMAZING wedding filled with such sweet sentiment.

for our NEXT stop we drove to the NEARBY province of manitoba.
we went there to visit our lifelong family friends, the kirkpatricks.
since we were already in the NEIGHBORHOOD of canada, what were a few more kilometers?!
while there we enjoyed many rounds of NERTZ and played board games like it was our job.
A
we ALSO listened to the story of when our parents met
and how the luttrell and kirkpatrick families have temporarily lived under the same roof
3 different times while waiting for different houses to be ready.
we ATE delicious home cooked meals and loved the dinner conversations as much as the food.
we went for walks in the middle of the AFTERNOON and soaked up the perfect weather.
we went swimming and ADELAIDE went down her first water slide.
best of all, we ALL felt right AT home relaxing the days AWAY together.

from austin, tx to minot, nd to carlyle, saskathchewan to DAUPHIN, manitoba,
it was a DELIGHTFUL vacation for our whole family.
one of the hightlights was getting to see my DEAR friend laurel
and finally meet her husband DARIN.
it was such a treat to share our life updates in person
and DREAM about the next time we get to hang out again.
A
ADIEU canada.
now we are back home in AUSTIN, but just for 4 more days.
moving day is APPROACHING way too quickly.
i am APPREHENSIVE about the packing, the moving, and goodbyes
but i ALWAYS knew this season of our lives would someday come to an end.
and i am APPRECIATIVE for the time we have been ABLE to have.

Canada looks amazing! I love how close your family is and how everyone packs up to travel to each important occasion. I am feeling your pain about packing, moving, and goodbyes. I'll be praying for your smooth transition.
