More about the Wedding



Yes, I'm still blogging about the Wedding. And why not? It was fun and I took SO many pictures. This is our last baby to be in a Kindergarten Wedding and I felt the need to be obsessive and go overboard. It's also one of my last chances to be out at the school for fun things like this and I wanted to really enjoy it. I worked with one of the other mothers in the class to help set everything up. It was a lot of work but we had so much fun. Afterwards, we both commented on how sad we are that this is our last child (her baby is also in the class). At least I'm not alone in my nostalgia!

Leah was a bridesmaid in the Wedding. She was a bit disappointed, but rallied well and thoroughly enjoyed herself. The only downside is that it rained some. But, during the important times, the rain held off (note- this was NOT while I was cleaning up and loading the car... I got wet!).



Scot took off work and came out as well as Nana and Phyllis. My dad (Papa)was sick! He's hardly ever sick so we were really sad about that. I would have loved some good granddaughter/grandfather photos! There was a big reception complete with lots of dancing. Leah has a friend that came up and asked her to dance. She was really happy and spent most of the reception dancing with him.




As I watched her, it occured to me that she is at such a good age. I wish I could hold on to her innocense and positive attitude forever. She approaches life with a zest and really sees everything as an adventure.



I love the above picture. It shows her excitement and eagerness to do something new. It really captures who she is becoming.

Maybe I'm feeling sentimental. There are lots of changes coming and the kids are growing up quickly. I feel that if I even blink, I will miss something really important. As Leah walks out of babyhood and into childhood, I'm so excited to see what she will become. I'm so glad that I got to experience this with her and capture the experience. I feel that it is something she will remember forever. As will I.
