This weekend was so wonderful. Filled with lots of family, friends, and many memories. Joe, Emma, Grandma Berry and I arrived at the hotel after lunch on Friday afternoon. We walked into the room and I could smell the aroma of roses and stargazer lillies...Daddy had surprised Mommy with a beautiful bouquet of flowers for their 7th Wedding Anniversary. Friday evening was the rehearsal...which Emma was the star flower girl by walking down the aisle twice without a glitch. We just prayed that she would do the same for the big day on Saturday. Saturday was a very busy day. We arrived at the church around 1:30...no nap as of yet. :) Emma loved wearing her dress. She loved smiling for the camera. The 3:00 hour grew closer and closer...Emma began to get crabby and restless. But...low and behold she made it down the aisle. Although once she realized there were so many people...she decided to stop and smile at everyone and look around. The ringbearer thought he should keep her moving by tugging on her arm. Emma wouldn't budge so she tumbled over right in the middle of the aisle and then the ringbearer toppled over Emma. It was worthy of a little chuckle. Grandma Gloria came to their rescue by picking them up and guiding them on their way. Once Emma was down the aisle...Aunt Jennifer was sooo beautiful and she made it down without any glitches. :) Grandma Berry took Emma out of the sanctuary and settled her down for a nap. Emma slept for 1 and 1/2 hours in her arms. The reception was filled with great food and fellowship with family and friends. We made our way home on Sunday morning. We are definitely exhausted and worn out...but, it was all worth it. We are sooo excited for Aunt Jennifer and Uncle Jimmy to finally be married. We were so blessed to be a part of their special day. Here are a few pics from the weekend.
