Hanging out at Dan and Colleen's wedding

We all went to Sandusky for the weekend for Dan and Colleen's wedding. They had the reception at Castaway Bay which is a hotel/water park. It was a great weekend for all of us.

Molly was so good with a lot of sitting.

I'm so glad my purse is a bag of tricks too.

Iva had a long day already I'm sure the music will change her mood.

Josie what a cute face.

Now that is a cute smile.

This was a very child friendly wedding.

Even the big kids Matt.

The kids are having a tough time waiting for dancing time.

Go Molly Go.

More wedding stuff

What a cheesy smile.

The very pretty cake.

How nice.

Cute couples every where.

What pretty flowers...

To throw.

Dan behave that is what the room is for.

Remember all the children.

Good catch.

Dollar dance.

Iva got a good boost too.

Dance Party

The first dance.

Then Colleen and Dan danced with their moms.

The wedding parties turn.

Ok your free you have waited long enough.

Tried to teach Molly the chicken dance.

Very funny. I want it known I still have on my heels.

They had kid only dances...

And candy drops (like a pinata without the stick).

Molly has been dancing hard. Very thirsty.

I hate to drag her off the floor but I made Autumn stop dancing around 10. I swear the only one acting tired was Pete and I.

The morning after the Wedding

After spending the night on the dance floor how does she still have energy?

Energy is wasted on kids.

Autumn was wide awake to but a little calmer.

We had a very nice brunch to get ready to swim. Molly ate bacon and lots of it.

No doing this in the pool and drowning Colleen.

Are you ready to go swimming! Oh yeah present time first.

The big secret!

Well we did it. The quilt group kept our present secret for months! That was very heard. Nic used all the extra fabric to make pillow cases and decorative pillows.

Then the big box, the quilt made by all members of the Group Therapy Quilt Guild and a lot of help from my mom. Thanks mom.

Mom put our group patch right in the border with their wedding date. Very cool.

I think Dan and Colleen liked it. They may need a bigger bed though.

Kid update

Molly had her 2 yr old check up. She is 27lbs and 2'11". She is doing well, agrees the Dr. He was happy to see her gaining weight. She is heading into the those terrible twos with no hesitation. She is a monkey that love to play. I'm not sure where she got it from but she seems to have a bit of a tude at times... Must be dad (since I'm typing this).

Autumn is a big bad 4th grader now and has made it to the double digit 10! If that doesn't make mom feel old. She is 4'11 1/2" tall with out her heels she loves to wear. Try finding kid friendly shoes in a size 8. Yes, I said 8 the same size I wear.

These are our girls. They keep our life interesting and I'm loving every minute of it.

Thank Aunt Laura and Ryan

When Aunts live far away and don't have kids of there own for pay backs yet, they send toys with lots of pieces...

That are meant to blow all over your house...

I'm just joking she really like it and has lots of fun cleaning up all the ones she misses with the net. The ones she misses with the net by the way are all of them. What happens is she misses the 1st on. While she bends over to get that 2,3, and 4 blow out. See the cycle here.

Now the tub will never be white again. Thanks for all the fun gifts Laura and Ryan. Can't to see you.
