Weddings... wonderful and stressful all at the same time. My younger sister got married this weekend to the love of her life. Almost a full year of planning and preparation for this one day event, this monumental- never to forget, event. My husband, two little boys and I all had a part in the wedding. It is an honor to be a groomsman, ring bearer and matron of honor. An honor that is filled with complete joy and an unbelievable amount of pressure.
Rehearsal did not go well for the ring bearers. Well that is probably an understatement, they left in tears, my mother-in-law was already exhausted and I was in a panic. There was no way my two year old was going to pull his almost one year old brother down the aisle in a wagon. Of course that was the plan but who had plan b or c or d? We decided to have my cousins who were supposed to walk down the aisle first go last with Trex and Pace, ok plan b was established now they just needed to perform.
Wedding day arrived filled with excitement, anticipation, nerves and a bunch of scrambling. My mother-in-law was in charge of the kids for the weekend and scheduled to bring them to the church by 2pm. 2:14 rolled around, pictures were being taken and the bride was ready to go but where were the kiddos. Well the nuk of all things was missing and kids were screaming. Oh what a moment, someone find a nuk and find it fast! Right before the wedding we prayed and not just a normal prayer this was a hard core God please please help these boys perform kind of prayer. In the end the boys were wonderful, they walked down that aisle like little pros and sat through the ceremony with nothing but a "I need milk" from Trexen.
What a fabulous weekend, wonderful and stressful all in one.
Open gym this Friday, see you there!
