Wedding Weekend Wrap-up

Last week, we went up to Lake Geneva, WI for Uncle Brian & Aunt AJ's wedding weekend.  Eloise made her debut as a flower girl and did a great job!  

First thing we did after checking in to our hotel was go swimming.  Eloise & Uncle Brian had a blast doing "super girl" in pool.

 Yummy favors at the Rehearsal Dinner.  
Eloise loved the popcorn inside & it kept her entertained during the speeches. 
 Eloise needed her beauty sleep before the big day and had fun sleeping in a big bed for the first time. 
Eloise along with her 3 cousins, Mommy, Aunt Dina, & Grandma Sandy all had their hair done.  We had  our very own beauty salon going on in Grandma Sandy's suite!

After all the hair was done & dresses were on, we all headed to the church for the main event.  We gathered in the church school library with all 6 flower girls, 1 ring bearer, a few moms, 5 bridesmaids, and a gorgeous bride.  All the flower girls received a special gift from the bride - a little pearl necklace to wear with their dresses. 
Flower girl meeting? Flower girl pep talk?
 Making that long walk down the aisle...
Eloise did a great job during the ceremony.  When I told her that we have to be quiet when other people were talking, she kept asking, "Him talking?" every time the priest spoke and then telling me to "Sshhh!" She may have had a pack of smarties and 2 packs of fruit snacks to keep her busy but at least it worked! 
 Eloise made her exit from the reception right after dinner with Grandma Karen & Grandpa Kevin. Mom & Dad were able to enjoy the rest of the night.  We had a great time celebrating Brian & AJ!  Cheers to the happy couple!
