Last weekend we traveled to Lexington and attended my cousin, Rachel's, wedding. These pictures are from their first dance. Unfortunately, I was unable to stay in the church during the ceremony. (Philip has a tendency to be a little loud.) But, I did get to see Rachel before she walked down the aisle, and as you can see she was a gorgeous bride!

One of my favorite pictures of them. They make a beautiful couple.

This was so pretty and it inspired Mom to have Dad and Bryon paint their rocking chairs black. Sorry guys...:-)

Ha.... I loved his outfit - I hope he doesn't hate Timothy and I when he is older for some of the things we made him wear.

Philip loved these girls! The little one, Ella, was jumping and dancing for him - Philip thought she was the best thing ever.

My roommate for the night! We had some great talks, and Erin said when she woke up in the morning Philip was staring at her! Ha...

Bryon and Erin helped a lot with Philip, they are so good with him!
Dancing with Nonna!

It was way past Philip's bedtime, but he stayed up until he couldn't hold his head up anymore!
Again, it was a great weekend. Seeing family is priceless and I feel very fortunate that I know my Dad's cousins and their kids and their kids. It is very special, and I think Uncle Jim, Aunt Jenki, and Granny would all be happy we stay in touch.
