The Flower Girl

Katelyn was in heaven Saturday night. After dreaming of being a flower girl for almost a year, the day finally came. She started the day getting her hair done with the girls. Thank you to the amazing hair lady because she kept my stick straight haired child in curls all night. After getting her hair done, she sat mesmerized watching Angela get hers done. If you all have seen my little girl around beautiful girls in dresses, you will know how transfixed she can becomes. She spent the entire evening dutifully following Angela around (Thank you Angela for being so accommodating.) When the time came she got very serious and walked down the aisle with a purpose---distributing those leaves. She had a blast and spent the evening on the dance floor before crashing in her Aunt Sherry's arms.

I can't believe how grown up my little girl is. What happened to that little baby that I birthed just four short years ago.

For those of you wondering why my wonderful husband is not in any of these pictures, he took one for the team. A few minutes before the bridesmaids were due to walk down the aisle, Ellie quietly said, "My tummy hurts," and then promptly threw up all over Alan and the aisle. However, Sherry and the photographer rose to the occasion, quickly taking care of the problem and the wedding went off without a hitch. Unfortunately, my poor hubby was not so fortunate and had to have replacement clothes brought to him. He and Ellie watched the wedding from the back where they got to see the procession up close. Fortunately, Ellie bounced back quickly and was dancing before we hardly knew what hit her. All is well today. The picture of Ellis is from pre-incident :)
