Pete is a III, His Grandpa Casarotto is Pete, his dad is Pete Jr, and then my Pete is Pete the III. Around the time of the wedding when the Casarottos started to arrive it was fun to say to people "I am going to go pick up Pete to take to Pete and then we are going here..." People would just look at me funny. But in all actuality, my Father In Law, Pete is a marvelous guy. He has a huge heart and is fun to joke around with and hang out with. A few years ago, we went to Phoenix for Ty's wedding. While there we went to Pete's work so he could show me what all they do. WOW...there is so much going on there! Pete (my pete--the rest of the blog he will be referenced as MP (my pete)) would be first person to tell you that at first I didn't know if Pete Jr liked me...but we got to grow on each other and now I have an awesome man as a father in law. I remember dancing with him at the wedding and joking with him telling him I was gonna call him my "Papa Pete" He just laughed at me and we kept dancing. Great guy! I hope everyone is as lucky as I am to have such a great guy for a father in law.
Kay, is Pete's mom, she is a miraculous women. She is a stay at home mom to Kady and Brent and through all that she always finds time to go the gym. (way better then me, because well...I say I find time for the gym but really I find time to spell out gym and not actually go to the gym!) haha :-) I love talking with Kay on the phone, she always has a new story for us about Phoenix, the weather, or the kids. I wish I could just drive over to her house pick her up and take her for the day to a spa so she can be pampered. hmmm...mother daughter in law spa day...sounds like a plan to me...lets see...flights to Phoenix $160, Spa Time (depending on where you go) $60-120 per person, spending time with my new awesome mother in law, PRICELESS :-) :-) Kay came up in April and helped put together all the flowers for the wedding. We spent 3 days buying flowers, putting them together, organizing them and everything! She did such a great job! The day before the wedding, she put together some floral arrangements (real flowers) for the front of the church and then we placed them on the cake table and they were so gorgeous! Kay is an amazing women and I really got lucky to have such a awesome Mother in Law.
Here is a picture of the my awesome In-Laws:
Pete also has 2 brothers, Brad and Brent. Brad is the oldest. I have met Brad a few times. He also lives in Phoenix and then Brent is the 2nd oldest. He lives in Idaho with his family. Brent and Jennifer have 2 beautiful kids. So when Pete and I got married I ended up with 3 nieces and 1 nephew. You are probably asking where the other 2 kids come in...welll...that would be Brent and Kady!
Brent and Kady are a hoot! They are so much fun to play with and everything. Brent was the ring bearer at the wedding and Kady was the flower girl. Kady was at the hotel getting her hair done with all of us girls the day of the wedding and she had so much fun! I love it when she calls me Aunt Becky it just makes me smile...and she loved her dress so much! When my mom brought her dress to her she was soooo excited because it had a zipper!! When she came for the wedding she was so excited because she was going to be in Uncle Petes wedding and get to wear her dress! Brent was equally excited to be in the wedding. When Kay came in April, Brent kept reminding her to bring his "Uxedo" home! He couldn't quite get that T on Tuxedo...however, while Kay was here Pete taught him how to say Tuxedo. He was the cutest ring bearer ever...he definately loves his Uncle Pete! We even had him carry his ball glove as the ring bearer pillow and he loved it! Brent and Kady are so much fun and whenever we talk to Kay or Pete on the phone they usually always ask to talk to us...it is so much fun!
Here is a picture of the kiddos:
So to end this post I thought I would say, "I couldn't imagine my life without my new extended family. They are the best! I am truly blessed to have them in my life!"
Hopefully seeing them soon in Phoenix!
