Colin's wedding


Colin has been so excitedly looking forward to "his wedding" for weeks now. My pastor's daughter asked him to be the ring bearer in her wedding, which was last Saturday, the 14th. Colin did a fantastic job, and as usual, I couldn't take enough pictures! There are some here from the rehearsal, but most are from the actual wedding and reception. Colin did an absolutely fabulous job--we practiced quite a bit before hand, and talked all about what he would need to do. I thought there may just be a chance that the doors would open and he would head for the hills crying, too scared to actually walk the aisle after he saw all the people staring at him....but he was a total pro. He was just so excited about "his wedding" finally being here, and being able to wear his "seedo" (tuxedo in plain english) and carry his pillow down to the front of the church. He did exactly what he was supposed to do--no tears in sight, only big smiles! I on the other hand was a complete basket case, bursting into tears and crying like a baby the entire time he was walking down. (See my earlier post about watching your 'baby' becoming not such a 'baby' anymore--it was all those same feelings all over again!) The wedding itself was wonderful, and Shane and I had a good time at the reception--special thanks to Haley for holding down the fort with all three boys while we went! It was a really neat experience, and I wanted to share as much of it as I could. Hope you enjoy!


For some reason, the video clip of Colin walking down the aisle is not working. Please click on the following link to watch it! http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2914636633534925672

Adorable pictures. Her wedding was really pretty! Where are you going to church - I didn't recognize the building? Elijah gets to do that for Uncle Riley's wedding in Sept. I hope he does as well as your little guy! (PS Your hair is really cute too!)
