Flower Girl Wedding Bliss

Yesterday we got to celebrate the wedding of my cousin Peter and Christine. It was a beautiful day! Peter asked Abby to be the flower girl in the wedding and she was thrilled. We went to rehearsal on Friday night and everyone seemed nervous. Abby talked with me later on the car ride home and said that she was scared that everyone would be looking at her and that she would mess up. We prayed together before she went to bed and she felt better. The next morning she climbed into bed with me and told me that she was feeling ready for the wedding because Jesus told her that she would do great. And Jesus was right! Abby and Papa are sharing a giggle during rehearsal on Friday night. My dad was the pastor for the ceremony so it was fun to watch her walk down the aisle smiling at her papa.


Here's my precious daughter!


Here's the beautiful couple!


I had Abby practice walking down the aisle so that I could get some pictures of her because I waited at the back with her until right before she headed down the aisle so I didn't get to see her. My family all said she looked great and smiled nicely. Yeah!


Here we are after the wedding. I wanted to grab a quick picture of the us together before we needed to go blow bubbles. I was so proud of Abby! She did a fantastic job.


Here's Abby with all her cousins. Girls just love all things beautiful, especially weddings!


My siblings are awesome!


My mom and my grandma. Two beautiful women!


Abby and Sophie started blowing bubbles right away. They thought it was a fun idea.


After the wedding we took all the kids home and left them with our awesome friend Hannah and headed to the reception. We had a great time. My sister and her husband, my brother and his wife, my cousin Andy, and the wedding photographers were all at my table. We laughed and laughed and laughed and I even drank mint coffee! Hehe!
