Aunt Kelly and Uncle Rodger's wedding

After three long days in the car, we arrived in Denver, Colorado, to begin celebrating Kelly as a bride! There was lots going on, but here are some highlights!

The ladies had lunch at a yummy French restaurant one day. Here's Kelly, bride-to-be.
Emilie and Kathleen (I wonder what they were talking about . . . )
Yes, even Anna Kate and Lucy (who did not want her picture taken) went. They were great!
A chocolate fountain and champagne for a shower for Kelly . . . The girls stayed long enough to sample! Yummy! Here's Aunt Hannah helping Lucy.
Samantha at the rehearsal dinner . . .
One of my all-time favorites . . . This is where Kelly and Rodger got married, in Golden, CO. And the night of the rehearsal, I snapped these adorable pictures!
And look at those mountains! Ah, it's been good to be back in the southwest and in Colorado.
At the rehearsal dinner, with Aunt Sarah.
The day of the wedding . . . Anna Kate loves dancing! It was chilly, so the girls and all of us, kept our sweaters on!

Samantha's curly head! She was a champ - the girls ate through most of a box of gummies by the time the wedding ceremony ended! And some lollipops . . . You have to do what you have to do . . .
Aunt Emilie made Lucy's hair pretty and out of her face with this braid!
Daddy with his girls! We had a yummy lunch!
The bride and groom! It was a great day!

catching up . . . some funny things in Albany

Sweet, little Lucy! I do so like her hair out of her face, so I can see that pretty face!
The girls, playing "wedding." Interesting, eh? And, yes, those are dish towels around their waists and baskets on their heads!
We were supposed to be practicing and getting ready for Aunt Kelly's wedding, but somehow we must have gotten distracted.
Lucy put this outfit together all by herself! It's an interesting take on fashion . . .
