Oregon Trip // Mennonite wedding
We got to take a family trip to Oregon for a wedding! It was fun to be with family and Xander did such a great job with flying! I also filmed part of the wedding so you get a sneak peek into a Mennonite wedding!

When I saw the picture of you with Xander on a restraint I wondered if you would receive any negative comments about putting your child on a "leash". I am an old lady and my grandson is a grown man but if I had a little one, in today's world, you can bet your bottom dollar I would have that child restrained for his own safety. Sorry, but there are just too many crazy people out there and a child can break away (or be taken away) unbelievably quickly so I applaud your taking this step to keep him safe. I have been following Lynette's videos for several months (isn't she a sweetheart?) and I am glad to have been directed to another Mennonite mom. I am not Mennonite but I enjoy watching your videos and watching how you raise your children and because I am pretty much housebound I especially enjoy watching your DITL videos where you or Lynette get out of the house and go thrifting or traveling or to the beach or the park or go out to eat or whatever. I'm glad Lynette told us about your videos. BTW, Xander is a real cutie pie!

thank you! and so honored to have you here! Glad you enjoy following our lives! No negative comments yet, but they get away from you so fast and in a busy airport like that, I had to have something so I knew where he was. It scares me to think of losing a child in a place like that! thanks for the encouragement!

Sometimes a restraint is just the safest way regardless of what others might think. I am in my 70s but I remember how one of my brothers would wander off. Mom used a restraint and always knew where he was.

@@theMennoniteMom Hi Jeannine - I also had put my children on a leash , we saw this often in the 1980s or 90s ... my children do the same with their kids ... but now people often give you a side eye - they are a bit stupid - and the first who cry for safety when a child is lost ...
I am a subscriber from Lynn's channel... I saw the previews from hers and I had to come see. I am now sorry that I have waited so long to join you and your family on your journey. Xander... well he won my heart, he is so ADORABLE! Beautiful "wedding" - thank you for sharing!

Was so unfortunate about your dress and the whole ironing situation.. however you certainly handled that well.

I agree with you some weddings are like side shows to see if you can out compete or out spend the next guy. Weddings should be more reverent for the occasion they represent. You're still just as married whether you spend $thousands on your wedding or not. 👰
