I am sorely lacking in good photos as I was too engrossed in the amazing weekend to take many pics. The professional ones will be here at some point and I will post then. Maddie and Eddie pulled off the BEST WEDDING WEEKEND EVER! We arrived Thursday night and got a little time with Aunt Maddie before heading to bed. Friday was the church wedding with Eddie's family - G and Uncle Du also came! Tay survived the hour long ceremony by playing Pokemon Go on Hung's phone. Maddie looked AMAZING! We went to a brewery afterwards that Eddie's parent's hosted. Again, Tay played Pokemon Go and Avery loved acting "old" and hanging out Maddie's friends.
Saturday was a quiet day - Hung took the kids to see some family in GR for lunch while G and I visited Teri, my Dad and Grandma Lou and got all the center piece material ready. Maddie also gave Avery and me our bridesmaid gifts - She got Avery some new Pandora Charms (Lightening bug since Avery lights up her life and one from Moana since we are Family and Family is forever). I got a framed photo of Maddie, me and my Dad with his handwriting that says "Love you Kiddo" and she got a gold necklace with a pinky promise on it (and TATTOO'D the same image on her leg for ME!!! with a promise that we will always be sisters and best friends and there for each other no matter what). Needless to say - TONS of tears!! Saturday night was a happy hour at the hotel. Tay LOVED swimming with Liam, Kelly, Alex and Dylan for 3 hours!!! While Avery was super cool hanging with Laney and Devyn. We got to spend lots of time with family and friends.
Sunday was the BIG DAY! Avery and I spent the day with the Bridesmaids getting hair and make up done (G, Aunt KJ, and Uncle Cullen were also at the venue getting all the centerpieces done!). Avery LOVED hanging with Maddie's friends who were SO kind to her - she really felt like one of the gang! Tay got to go to the zoo with cousins before Hung brought him over in his tux for photos. The ceremony was just so emotional and perfect - Avery was sobbing and I was constantly wiping tears. The Reception was a BLAST! Tons of dancing and photo booth time for Avery with cousins and Maddie's friends while Tay loved playing Lawn Games with the boy cousins. I thought he would dance all night but he only joined the dance floor for one T Pain song and then headed back outside. My cousin Dave used Jenga blocks to show him so brick laying patterns so he spent lots of time doing that and asking people to give him math problems - Such a quirky and cool kid! It was just a fantastic night - LITERALLY PERFECT!!! Sad to see it come to an end after so much build up but we have some amazing memories for a lifetime.
Congrats to Aunt Maddie and Uncle Eddie!!
