Flower Girl Wedding

I’m so overdue for blogging. Here’s the recent wedding story.

We went to Chicago for my niece’s wedding. My daughters were both flower girls. And it was their first wedding. So lots of excitement.

It was a nice weekend in Chicago (for November). The wedding was downtown. So that afternoon we walked around and ended up by Lake Michigan on the beach. We were pretty much the only ones there, but the girls still loved it.

Then it was back to the hotel to get ready.

The room where we waited before the wedding had a pool table that for some reason was not in use. My girls changed that.

The wedding was a nice one and a short one, which was good for the girls. But Danielle was fascinated by the whole thing. Following the ceremony there was a cocktail hour while they switched over the room for the reception. My girls managed to discover this couch which was very slippery. With a running start they could slide on their stomachs the whole way across.

Finally there was dancing. The DJ hit a long stretch playing music they both knew so they danced a lot.

After a lot of dancing, the DJ played a slow song. This annoyed the girls and Elly and I danced together. By this point Tori was so tired that she literally toppled over on the floor.

A really fun night.
