ANDRUS-R-US: Pre-Wedding

Can't believe the time has come... on our way to tie the knot! Time to leave this wintery wonderland and head for sunshine and ocean breeze. The whole family packed up the cars and drove down the weekend before, ready to celebrate.

Mike and I designed these glass bottles, complete with custom m&m's, to give as wedding keepsakes. Luckily we remembered to pack them in to the van in a non-meltable spot!

Long drive = some good nap time for McKel

And our non-nap-taker watches some fun DVD's to stay entertained.

We stopped at an alien rest stop to get some out of this world snacks, and use the restrooms.

Papa takes McKel to check out the aliens outside... McKel's not so sure what to think

Mike and his muscles easily can hold the two girls at once :) my soon-to-be-hubby

Affectionate Avril plants a kiss on her soon-to-be stepdad :)

Hanging out with some aliens... we come in peace.

Once we made it to beautiful San Diego, everyone was anxious to get some beach time in. While mommy and Mike went off to do some pre-wedding photo shoots, the family played. I really think the girls' favorite thing in the entire world is the beach. Which is nice, since its free to visit. They are in heaven here...
