Labor Day Weekend: Part 1

We had a crazy busy weekend which is just what we needed after the intense week we had discussing next steps in Craig's treatment etc. The weekend started off with a pedicure for me before we packed up the car and picked Emily up from school. We then headed to our first destination: The Knarr's house. The girls love Sydney and they were excited about a "sleepover". Hannah has an early bedtime so she stayed back with Rob and Steph. So the four of us headed to the rehearsal for Kristy (my cousin) and Bruce's wedding. Emily was chosen to be a flower girl and Morgan was a program attendant or a door holder as she called it. Rehearsal and rehearsal dinner went well and we enjoyed being around everyone to start the weekend off. Although as Emily sat in the pew during the rehearsal she expressed to Uncle Jim (father of the bride) and Aunt Kathy (mother of the bride) that "this was not nearly as fun as she thought it was going to be." geez, Em honest much! They have a great sense of humor so of course they laughed it off and told her the fun party of a Catholic wedding was the reception. :)

Saturday Emily got her hair done and just loved every minute getting ready for the wedding. We visited with the Geiger's and the newest cousin, Loraine (after my late Grandmother) who is just two weeks old. Emily did wonderful in the wedding and she loved being apart of the wedding party. It was a beautiful wedding and a fun reception.

She loved her hair. It looked great and it stayed all day really well.

Morgan handing out programs. She looked so cute.

Cupcakes!

Hannah at the reception. She did not last through the wedding.

Thanks again Steph for taking her outside. ;)

We had such an awesome time dancing at the reception, this is Morgan about midnight. She is asleep and if you look close she used the table cloth as a blanket.

Kristy's pick for the first reading was Ecclesiastes 3: There is a time for everything,

and a season for every activity under the heavens.

It was a definitely a time to celebrate and a time to dance!

We wish them the best of luck in their lifetime together. Keep Christ the center of every "time" in your life and you will suceed regardless what you face together.

 Thanks for letting us be apart of such a great event. It was a very blessed feeling being around a great family and having a great time. Congrats to Kristy and Bruce!
