We headed out last week to attend my cousin's Kirsten's wedding. It was a great time, the setting was beautiful, Kirsten looked happy and she had a 6 cute little girls leading her down the aisle. Here are the girls practicing for the big event. Cousin Madeline is crying on the right hand side of the picture and didn't quite make it down the aisle. Isabel did great (second from the right) until about 2 minutes before she was suppose to go down the aisle. She did make it, but needed a little help and had a few tears rolling down her cheeks.
Here the girls are all waiting for their big debut.
Claudia and I had great seats to watch the wedding. Claudia looked beautiful in her pink dress, with her blue eyes and ever so slowly growing hair!
Some of my cousins and their family posing after the wedding.

Aunt Carol had set up a art area for the kids to play and create masterpieces during the reception. The kids had a great time here.
Isabel and cousin Madeline were the dancing queens. Actually all the flower girls were out on the dance floor all night long. When Isabel and Madeline would get tired, they made their Uncle Greg and Dave dance with them.
The reception was held in a beautifully decorated barn. Julie and cousin Jolene are in the background.
One more picture of the girls rocking out. I have a video of them dancing that i will post later.
Cousin Jolene and Chad's daughter, Cece was also a flower girl and she spent considerable time out on the dance floor too.
Dave and Reyna dancing, Reyna is about 20 weeks prego.
Isabel followed Madeline everywhere and when Madeline had Uncle Greg dance with her, Isabel wanted to dance too.
Uncle Greg and Aunt Katie all tuckered out.
Poor Grandpa had both girls at the same time too. I think he danced more with the girls than he did with Granny lala.
Isabel also got to see Talonna's daughter, Eden. Eden will be a big sister next March.
We picked the perfect day to head up stream and park the boat on an island beach. Uncle Mark manned the boat.
Adam and the kids had a great time playing in the water and in the sand. They dug a hole so deep they hit water.
Connor, Madeline and Isabel frolick in the water.
I had to put in one picture of baby Gavin bonding with Uncle Adam. He and Claudia stayed home and missed the beach action.
Anytime we were just hanging out, the girls would get all dolled up in shoes, necklaces, tutu's and anything else they could find....goggles one time too. They had a blast playing together and kept putting on "shows" for us.
Barbie and Margo also stopped by for a visit. It was great to see them.
Claudia, Isabel and Margo.
One more picture of the girls all dressed up.
Walking up the big hill.
Trying on daddy's pants just to see if they fit. BTW, she also tried on a pair of Claudia's pants the other day. Suprisingly, she got them up but couldn't botton them! She is a little hoot.
We started off the summer by going to the kiddie amusment park with our neighbor friends and we ended the summer by going on last time. But this time, Claudia and Ethan were able to go on a ride together.
Isabel and i tried the paddle ducks for the first time. Our duck was broken and only wanted to go backwards....I am sure it wasn't the fault of the driver!
Isabel getting ready for the duck ride.
Claudia driving her pink convertible car. I think she will want one of these in 15 years.
The girls and their hotrods.
Claudia smiles.
