Wedding weekend - day 2

Saturday, July 30, was wedding day.  We didn't have any obligations until the ceremony, so we took it easy at our cabin most of the morning, went out for ice cream at a cute little drive-in, ate lunch, took naps, and then I did the girls' hair and got us all ready.  Matt had pictures with the guys before the ceremony, and we all met up in the woods after that.

After a few last-minute preparations, the wedding finally started around 5:20.  Lisa was beautiful.  Kate loved walking down the aisle with all the other flower girls.  Liv refused.  So, Will and I escorted her.  And, of course, she got a stick in her shoe part way down and she had to stop to get it out.  The ceremony was beautiful, and we had a little bit more time to hang out in the Forest before the reception officially began.  Thanks, Uncle Joe, for bringing bubbles and light-up necklaces to occupy my children!

so pretty

The reception was held just up the road, right by Lisa's aunt and uncle's house.  They had beautiful decorations and table settings in the tent, awesome food, and - of course - lots of dancing:)

We stayed as long as we could for fireworks (thanks Andy and Adam!) and dancing, and finally left around 11:00.  The girls weren't in bed until midnight.  That's officially the latest they've ever stayed up, but they had fun.  Poor Will just slept in the Ergo with me for most of the reception.  What a fun night!
