THE WEDDING!

Well, the day finally arrived!! Since the wedding was at night, we had lots of time to get ready--which was nice!! I have a few of the "real" wedding pictures in here, but most of them are just snap shots from my camera--which is why there aren't any pictures of the ceremony! I'll add more once I can steal them from my sister! For now...enjoy:) It was the MOST BEAUTIFUL WEDDING EVER!!

Chloe resting on Papa! Poor girl was so tired--she slept through the entire wedding (although, it was a blessing cuz I was worried she would be really loud!!)

Rachel and I getting the girls ready! They were watching a movie....

Aimee & Rebekah sang "I want to Marry Daddy". They did such a good job...hopefully I can get a little video clip of it later!

After the reception and more pictures the girls were playing under the tree!

Grams & Aimee after it was all over--about 1 in the morning!! Aimee did great!

All the presents in Dad's office

Chloe was trying to sleep on the couch!! She got trapped by the gifts!

The clean up is almost done! It was kinda sad to see something so beautiful torn down so quickly! It was off to bed with all of us finally! What a fabulous day....we love you Crispy & Matt!

2 SLEEPS BEFORE THE BIG DAY!

Here are a couple pictures of Wednesday night after church! The preparations for the big night were starting!!

The wedding party practicing "O Holy Night" for the ceremony!

Me and my sister again!

PRE-WEDDING PEDICURES!

On Wednesday before the wedding (which was on Friday), most of the wedding party went to get pedicures and manicures! It was a lot of mine...and mine was SO cute--black toes with white snowflakes on the big toe!

Jess (my cousin) & Beth (one of Crispy's new sister-in-laws)

Aimee getting her toes done! She was very excited...they were red with little snowflakes!

Drying those toes!

Beth Wood with her crazy nails!!

Me and my sister!

AIMEE SINGS IN CHURCH

Aimee sang with her Sunday School class in December before Christmas. As they were walking up she took time to stop and pose for a picture--only her! I couldn't stop laughing as she totally held up the line for everyone else just so she could turn and smile!! She did a great job and we were proud--although she did find it fun to hold that heart right in front of her face most of the time!!

I've been trying to upload a video, but it is not working:( I'll try again later!

CHLOE'S 2ND BIRTHDAY

Chloe turned 2 the day before my sister's wedding, so she didn't really get a big party! We opened presents at my parent's house one night and at Anson's parents another. While we were decorating for the wedding we had a cake for her at the church! This year Chloe got lots and lots of My Little Ponies (I used to play with them, too!!). She was very excited about all the horsies!! I just love how in the video clips my mom is so excited about everything! Makes me laugh:) (Oh...and just so you know...I forgot to bring Chloe a change of clothes for after church at my parents so she is wearing one of my sister's t-shirts! We don't normally dress her in very large white things:) HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHLOE!

CHRISTMAS PICTURES

We took a few Christmas pictures with my family this year for the Christmas card that my Dad sends out from him and my mom! While we were waiting for everyone to get there we took a few of just us! As most of you understand, pictures with a two-year old are not always fun so we only got a couple of shots (well, we actually got LOTS of shots...just only a couple of decent shots!)!! Chloe was being really grouchy, but after we gave her baby Jesus from the nativity set she was really happy. The last shot is of all of us looking at her as she showed us baby Jesus! It was so cute!!
