Trip to NY, Fun with family and a beautiful wedding!

I am so bad when it comes to blogging and I can't figure out how to put the pictures in order. So I will post the pictures of the wedding first then the rest of the weekend. We had a great trip to NY and the wedding was beautiful!! Lauren loved watching everyone dance because dancing is her thing.

She was trying to twirl around in her dress and I guess it wasn't doing it enough on it's own, so she had to help it out.


Notice the cute little couple in the background?? Those are Lauren's cousins Will and Lilly dancing together, what a sweet shot!!




Uncle Paul did his "Christian" Magic show for the kids to help entertain them during Michael & Melissa's wedding.



What a great looking couple after all of these years!!



Michael and Melissa dancing together for the first time as husband and wife, how sweet!!





The kids were hanging out playing and entertaining each other while the adults were talking and eating!!





Ring-around-the-Rosie is very popular with these cousins!!




Will and Lauren, what precious cousins!!




What a great tradition to get married in the CFH gardens. It brought back great memories of when I married Shaun in that same spot!!




My beautiful sister, Sarah, and her sweet baby, Nate!!




These boys are so good-looking, I think we better lock them up now!!



Look at these HOT Mama's!! I mean they are really Mom's who are not blood related, only related through marriage. They all have grown children and they look so beautiful!! Hope it's in all of our families genes.


Precious Family!! We tried to get all of the cousins together in a picture!! It was hard to do with all our kids as well. All the adults are our 2nd cousins on my Dad's side. Thanks to Jim, Kelly's man, who had a blast with the camera as you can tell. He took like 15 shots of us!! It was funny!!




We were all laughing because every time the picture was taken one or more of the kids would turn around or not fully cooperate.





This was is pretty good, kids and all!!




Lauren and Lilly playing Ring-around-the-Rosie again, down at the barn.






Since Lauren is obsessed with horses this was our daily routine, morning and evening, going down to the barn to pet the horses and cats. It was a fun trip and great visit!! Every time I go to NY (where I grew up) it brings back such sweet memories!! Thanks Opa & Oma for putting us all up!! We love you and praise God for the godly heritage you have passed onto us and our children!! Thanks Aunt Marilyn for having us over and cooking for us, for your hospitality and LOVE!!
