Utah Visit: Family pictures & Ian & Tykena's wedding dinner

In November we went back to Utah for Ian and Tykena's wedding. It was a good excuse to fly out for a visit since we weren't going to make it for Christmas (I couldn't get the time off of work). On Friday Joe and I met the family at Cafe Rio, because we always need to there when we come to Utah. Afterward we all went up to Memory Grove to take some family photos. It was the first "official" Grigg family photo session, so we all dressed up and tried to look cute. Even though the day was chilly and overcast, it made for a beautiful setting and the lighting was perfect for taking pictures. I don't have any of the official ones yet, but here are a few I snapped while moving between spots in the park.

We had some time between photo taking and Ian & Tykena's wedding dinner, so we stopped over to Nate and Libby's house for some Rockband rock out! This started Joe's obsession with Rockband, which is why we had to get it for our Christmas present to ourselves.
Robbie was a great drummer and Sharon really got into being the lead singer.

Nate and Libby were great hosts and made us gourmet hot chocolate, each a different flavor!

For Ian and Tykena's wedding dinner we went to one of their favorite Chinese restaurants in Bountiful. The decor was very elaborate and the food was good. Here are some pictures of the people and speeches.Maid of Honor

After dinner a few of us went to the church where the reception would be to help set things up. It was a lot of work, and we didn't stay all night, but we managed to get most of it set up.
