They Were PERFECT!

If you were under a rock... or perhaps you just stumbled on this blog... my sister Lisa got married this weekend.  Drew and Lisa's 2 1/2 year old daughter were the ring bearer and flower girl respectively.  With kids this age you expect a few "priceless" moments as they walk down the aisle.  You know one child screaming, refusing or doing some other hilarious antic.

Friday we had the rehearsal at the golf course and all the prepping we've been doing paid off!

And then it was the big day....

The two of them were so well behaved early on. Cooperating for the most part for the "millions" of pictures that were taken.  (Drew was asked at one point by the photographer how many pictures she was taking.  In the quick wit of the three year old he told her "millions", managing a giggle or two.).

 

Finally the big moment was here, what will they do?

They handled the walk down the aisle and ceremony amazingly!  Of course once we reached the altar, Drew was off to the side swinging the pillow - which was just show, no attached rings - and Kady handed all her rose petals to Grammy, GrampC and GG. But they remained pretty quiet considering.

Seriously they were fantastic that whole evening - and the days leading up to it.  Dave and I couldn't stop telling Drew how proud we were of him.  At one point he told Dave, "I was just following instructions!"  So for a little reward I told him I'd take him to Chuck E Cheese tonight.  I completely expect all  this great behavior to hit it's wall at some point this week, because after all... he's THREE!

I'll snag more pictures from my cousin Jodi and give them to you in pieces this week... they're all on Facebook (well not all 760... but a nice sampling), so I'll give you a behind the scenes.  Here's a family shot to tide you over.
