7th Week of Summer - July 19th-July 25th (Lindsey's Wedding)

Week 7 started off with some crazy kids playing army in the neighborhood.  Love that my kiddos have so many friends to play with.



On Monday night Lincoln had his end of the year swim team party.  He just had the best year!


To top it off, he got the 110% award for his age group.  SO proud of him for that!!!


Tuesday night after my tennis game, Jack came home with Lincoln for a sleepover.  They are some crazy Lego-lovin boys!




Finally, on Friday morning we headed to St. Louis for Lindsey's wedding.  That morning we stopped in Searcy for breakfast.


We went straight to Les and Carol's house and hung out for a couple of hours until it was time to leave to go to the rehearsal dinner.  It was about an hour away and Layton decided he needed to rest up so he could party when he got there. ;-)


The rehearsal dinner was at this cozy little restaurant near where the wedding was to be held.  Love this handsome brown-eyed boy.


Hannah and Isabelle.  They were such little ladies at dinner.





After dinner we headed over to this winery where the wedding was to take place.  They had the neatest little chapel that overlooked the river.  It was really pretty.

We all got a kick out of Addison's "high heels."



The two ring bearers (actually sign holders).


The Keim men.


They have a neat tradition at this place where towards the end of the wedding, the bride and groom go over to this door that opens up over looking the river and they open a bottle of wine.  Then, they serve everyone in the whole chapel.  Everyone holds up their glass and then the minister makes a toast and you all drink at the same time.  Since we are not a drinking family, they served all of us grape juice.  It was interesting!  I wasn't sure how the boys would do standing up there holding a glass of grape juice!!!  They actually ended up doing just fine.  Whew!



The giggly flower girls.


Logan walked Grandma and Grandad in.


Kurt and Kris.


Logan and Carol, the beautiful mother of the bride.





Les and Lindsey.



Practicing the toast.  I didn't get a picture of the real thing.


The flower girls on the wedding day.


I love, love, loved the boys outfits.  They loved them too!  All the kids with Aunt Mona.


Sweeties.


Now with me and Alexis.


My beauty.


Love them.




Show time!








Here comes the bride!!!




Oh my goodness.  The cuteness.


Lindsey looked beautiful!




Couldn't resist taking this picture.


Or this one.  Wish I could have heard what Lincoln was saying to him.  Probably telling him to wait to drink it and be careful!  Ha!  Such a good big brother.



This picture cracks me up.  I took it right after the photographer took one where Lyle is putting bunny ears on Roena.  Hysterical!!!!  We all had a good laugh!  I would love to see that picture!





I couldn't resist posting this picture because Lindsey was my flower girl when she was 7--14 years ago.  Unbelievable how fast time has flown by.




The reception was really pretty.





They had this great photo booth where they gave you a picture and then put one in a book that you signed for Lindsey and Lance.  Loved this idea!  I wish I could have seen the one that Lyle and Roena did.  LOL!


First dance.



Typical.



Mona wanted me to do the kissy face???


Daddy/Daughter dance.



Doing the Cha Cha Slide.



Layton was so cute when he got up to dance.  I think I have a little video of the cuteness.




Congratulations to Lindsey and Lance!!!  We wish them many many years of wedded bliss!!!
