A Great Weekend

We returned last night from our whirlwind trip to Minnesota for my husband's nephew's wedding.  Ah young love, isn't it so special?

The gorgeous couple, dancing their first dance as husband and wife.  They are gorgeous inside and out.  We adore them both so much.  I promised myself I would not cry, but when the groom saw his wife to be he wiped a few tears from his eyes, boy that got us all started.

  The morning after the big event the lovely couple made themselves available at the hotel to talk to everyone before they left.  They are rock, solid young people.....oh I could cry just looking at them.   They spent a lot of time with Little Buddy, and that just warms my heart.

Little Buddy had the time of his life.  At the hotel they had automatic doors!!!!!  Oh my goodness he walked through these doors and back again about 50,000 times on Friday afternoon, Saturday and Sunday morning before our flight back home.  He was in HEAVEN!!!!!!  Who needs an amusement park when you have automatic doors?  I hope you can see this video as it is the first one I have ever loaded on my blog.  Shot with my phone, actually all these pictures were.

He went swimming in the hotel pool with his Aunt Barb on Saturday morning.  We tried to tire him out so he would get a good nap in before the wedding.

He walked in and out of those doors  a hundred times with his Aunt Deanna, they had a great time together.

At the wedding he walked all over the beautiful golf club where the service and reception were held.  When I asked him what he liked to do at the wedding he replied, " a walk a walker outside on the grass." And he did that a lot.  But I actually think the best was dancing, this boy loves music.  He dances in the car in his car seat and he can really move those arms while I hold him on my hip.  His face started to crumble after each song was over.  Finally later into the evening we had a slow song or two, he held on tight, put his head on my shoulder and almost fell asleep.  Then he reached for his Dad and stayed there until we left.  He was the life of the party.  I had better watch out when he is ready to go to college...........

Our flight was long, and delayed for quite a while at the airport, but he did manage 45 minutes of napping on my lap, isn't that the cutest picture ever?

Thank you Minneapolis for beautiful weather, cooler temps, gorgeous flowers, and fun with family.
Hope you all had a wonderful weekend.

Sorry that video isn't going to work, but you can get an idea of Little Buddy walking through those doors just from the bit it shows.
