A Lovely Wedding

By Jen

Erin’s (my sister-in-law) wedding was last weekend, and everything about it was so beautiful! The kids had a wonderful time, we had a wonderful time, the whole family was together. It did rain all day, but everything else was so wonderful we hardly noticed the rain.

Erin was the first Bride in history to be early for everything! She was early to get dressed, pictures were done early, we arrived at the church 15 minutes early, at the reception 45 minutes early, and started the reception early!! I have to say that made for a very relaxing day for everyone. I really appreciated that with having the three kids there. I snapped the picture of Emma and Kevin in the doorway. Kevin was watching the rain and Em was watching Auntie Erin have her pictures taken.

The kids were so well behaved, everyone noticed. Kevin wasn’t very crazy about being in the monkey suit at first, but by the time we got to the church he got over it. He wouldn’t take any pictures for the photographer before the ceremony, and as you can see he wouldn’t take any for me in the limo either. LOL!

I didn’t get any pictures of the ceremony because we were all in the wedding. But trust me the ceremony was beautiful. The kids truly enjoyed the limo ride. We let them drink water out of the champagne glasses for the toast! Kaitlin was in charge of handing out the champagne glasses.

Kevin fell asleep as soon as we drove up to the Reception. I mean his eyelids closed at the exact same time someone said “We’re here!”

I usually take a ton of pictures at family weddings, but I guess it makes a big difference when you have three kids and you are all in the wedding party. I did snap a good one of Erin with her dad. Sorry, none of the bride with the groom. I didn’t even get one of my husband, and he looked so great too! I can’t wait to see the pictures everyone else took.
