We had quite the fun weekend in the Quad Cities for Ben and Kristen's wedding. We arrived just in time to check in and change for the rehearsal dinner. Then it was off to bed as it was a long day of heat and driving.
Saturday we were up for breakfast and some swimming. Then a quick lunch before sweating our tails off for the wedding outdoors. Luckily the kids were troopers (using our shadows for shade) and the ceremony was short and sweet. Then we attempted to get Eddie a nap while we hung out in our rooms before the cocktail hour and dinner started. The kids were thrilled to play with their cousins and friends at the reception.
Before dinner we were able to snag a picture of the Ed's together again. Never fails, the one picture I got of all of them smiling, Eddie had his eyes closed. So Great Papa isn't really smiling in this one, but it's the best we could do.
A few more family photos to last a lifetime.
Can't believe we got this one of all of us and we got everyone smiling and looking at the same time. Not an easy task!
Eddie was crabby and ready for bed but got a second wind just after Ed and Rowan headed to bed. He was a dancing machine (with his pacifier only of course). Rowan actually asked to go to bed, that is how tired she was from the day.
The day was great overall, glad the weather was nice for them, but man it was toasty. Sunday morning we had a quick breakfast with Uncle Dusty and Aunt Julie and then we were all headed home. These weekends are always fun but so exhausting.
