Lucas and Leslie's rehearsal dinner

The rehearsal dinner was held at the Oregon Electric Station and it was fabulous! Thanks to my parents for hosting a wonderful dinner party. We had such a nice dinner and a nice time visiting with everyone. Leslie and Lucas both said such nice things about their friends and family and gave such wonderful gifts. All the groomsmen got Nike shoes that were green, yellow and black that they wore with their tuxedos (which looked adorable) and Preston received matching ones! They also gave Preston some little swim trunks and a hat.... he looks adorable in them also! Leslie gave all her girls these fabulous yellow bags with all sorts of goodies inside to go with their green bridesmaids dresses. It was just a lot of fun before the big day....
