My brother, Brian, got married in Vancouver, B.C. over Labor day weekend. Jason and I were able to have an amazing little get away thanks to Jason's cousins and parents. We rented this bad boy in Boise. It was so much fun. Jason was so funny with his "man car." It had lots of cool features like a built in GPS with back up camera, mirrors that would blink if there was a car in your blind spot, cup holders that would warm and cool your drinks, and most importantly lots of power :0)!
On our way through Washington we made a spontaneous stop in Leavenworth. It is this cool little Bavarian inspired village. We had a great time walking around and best of all eating some amazing German food!!! So worth the detour!
There are markets like this all over Vancouver--must be a west coast thing. They have the yummiest produce, treats, and local art--so fun!
One of the treats--this cheesecake was sooooooo good. This picture is on Granville Island. It's a really cool shopping area full of little shops and boutiques--mostly selling art or unique finds.
The funniest thing--Jason and I drove out to Granville Island in the morning on Friday. We were walking around and all of the sudden heard someone yell "Jason" from the car. It was Brian, Loriann, and Grayson and some of Brian's friends. So funny to just run into my brother, sis, and nephew in a town the size of Vancouver!! Brian says they were playing Where's Waldo, but it ended up being Where's Jenn--thanks to my sweater! He is so funny!
Loriann and Grayson and some of the most amazing raspberries EVER!
Brian and Janice got married at Kapilano Park. It is this beautiful park with cliff walks, a suspension bridge, and forest tree walk. We were there the night before for the wedding rehearsal. We had so much fun exploring the park--it was one of the highlights of our trip.
On the Cliff Walk
Mom and Dad!
Jason thought it was super fun to take wide steps across the bridge and inconspicuously make it swing from side to side--he's too funny.
Jason teaching Grayson to spit off the suspension bridge and see how long it took to hit the water--too funny--I guess that's what uncles are for--right!
The tree walk!
Brian, Grayson, and me before the wedding.
Brian and Janice--So excited for these two--they are the cutest couple. We love her so much and are so excited to have her be part of our family!
Brian, Janice, and Grayson--their new little family!
On the way home we stopped and Multanoma falls. It is one of my favorite places--so beautiful!
