Wedding

Abe's second to youngest brother, Christian, got hitched last night (he has one older and two younger brothers. Four boys total, and two girls. Six kids. I can't imagine having six myself, but family get-togethers are always fun with a large family!  It took me a while to get used to the crazyness of it all when Abe and I were first dating. Now, it rocks!).

  As you'll see in the pics, a grand time was had by all. 

The bride, Jessica, and groom. Isn't she beautiful?!

I'm starting with the reception pics because they are freaking hilarious (sorry to those who don't like the word "freaking". I couldn't come up with something better to describe the hilarity).  Mira was the first on the dance floor...and she DID NOT STOP until we drug her off at 10:00 pm when they shut down the music!  She was quite mad since she wanted to continue her mad dancing skills.  She kept saying "turned the dance off".  Funny.  The girl seriously has some moves...which she did not inherit from either of her parents.  I was planning to take her home at 9:00 and was shocked when I suddenly realized it was 9:45 and she was dancing it up like she could dance all night!

Finally some pics of Abe and I together.  We are TERRIBLE at making sure we have pictures together.  I was glad to get a couple of good ones. 

Being silly with my sweet girl.

Mira and daddy.

A family pic!  Woo hoo!  Except Isaiah couldn't make the wedding due to a prescheduled event called bedtime. 

Mira was the flower girl, and she did AMAZING!!  I was SO proud of her!!!  I talked up being a flower girl like crazy before the wedding...fancy dress, cute hair clip, carry some flowers, cute shoes.  Every girls dream.  We practiced and everything.  She did great at rehearsal, and I prayed and prayed the wedding would go smoothly too.  It did, I was so proud of Mira and her two cousins, Elias and Corban!  Elias did AWESOME holding Mira's hand down the stairs.  Aren't they adorable?  Yes.  They're for hire in case you need someone cute to walk down the aisle. (A side note about the word "aisle".  A two year old may interpret such an unknown word as one more closely related to one they've heard before...such as alligator.  And then may pretend to chomp chomp chomp, and growl upon leaving the rehearsal dinner.  Your confusion will make a lot more sense when the morning of the wedding the two year old mentions "walking down the alligator".  However, all that really matters is that they don't walk like an alligator down the aisle.)
