Anne's Wedding!!

Finally, the day is here.  After all that planning and waiting, Anne's wedding day!  Paige was over the moon to be included in the wedding.  As she told anyone that would listen (flight attendants, hotel staff, etc..) SHE was a flower girl and her brother was "just watching".  Luke didn't seem to mind much, as long as he was on par with daddy, he was OK.

So excited in the morning to open her gift from Anne, a purse, mirror from Paris and a headband to match her dress! 

For the bridesmaids, hair in the morning and back to Mr. and Mrs. Westrich's house for makeup and lunch.

Then the flower girls showed up for their photo shoot.  Paige quickly latched right up with Anne's niece Rachel.  Paige was a little shy at the rehearsal and Rachel quickly won Paige over.  They paired up and walked down the aisle together.

Here they are comparing goodies -

Ride to church -

Too cute -

 First dance -

To eat cake or dance?  Such a dilemma for a party girl, she settled on both, dancing and coming back in-between songs to grab a bite -

The handsome men -

Paige fell in love at the wedding!  Who can blame her, wedding are a great place to meet your life partner!!  So the story goes: Al was the best man and whom I obviously walked down the aisle with.  Paige marched right up to Al at the reception and said, "Why were you holding my mommy's arm?!"  Al said he got a little nervous and said, "Here" and handed Paige his boutonniere rose, and asked her to dance.  From that point on, if you wanted to find Paige, just look for Al.  She was glued to this poor guys side the rest of the night.  His wife and 1 year old son were back in Austin, TX so he played along nicely.  She was a trip, out on the dance floor with the groomsmen dancing until midnight.

This was the scene when we got back to the hotel, it is like having a college kid. The next morning, after peeling her out of bed to make the flight she kept saying, "Where is Al?  When will I see Al again?"

She started out sweetly dancing with the other little kids -

Then quickly moved on to the wedding party -
