| Today I went back to Pittsburgh to attend my first wedding. |
| CHAPTER THIRTEEN |
| My First Wedding |
| I wonder what Mummy and Daddy have planned for us next!? Stay tuned to find out! |
| "On the road again...just can't wait to get on the road again." |
| Here is my cousin Abby and her new husband Mike. Isn't she gorgeous! I hope I grow up to be as pretty as her someday. |
| There were a lot of people at the party. Mummy bought me a stunning new dress to wear! There was also a lot of good food and dancing. Mummy wouldn't let me try any of the food, but hopefully she will take me dancing! |
| I hope, I hope, I hope I will get to have a wedding like this someday with Evan! I wish he could see me now in my beautiful new dress! |
| It's dinner time for me and mummy is giving some marriage advice to her niece Abby. Mummy thinks I am asleep, but I am paying attention to every word!! I want to be a good wife someday for Evan. |
| Here I am with my Aunt Valerie. I love it when she holds me, she is so much fun! But I wish she would take me dancing. I am tired of just watching everybody on the dance floor. |
| They made an announcement that all single girls should come out for the throwing of the bouquet. I asked mummy what it was all about and she explained that whomever caught the flowers would be the next one to get married. WOW! I wrestled away from mummy and I ran right out there!!! But I am so short, some lady pushed me aside and practically snatched them from my tiny fingers. Guess she is more desperate than me to get married. Evan will be so disappointed I did not get them. |
| I was still pretty melancholy after the whole bouquet debacle, so I let my mummy hold me and try to cheer me up. |
| YAY! I finally get to dance!!! Mum thought it might take my mind of off the bouquet thing, so she let me dance first with her sister Debbie (Abby's mum) then she danced with me for a while. It was a great distraction. |
| Daddy danced with me too!! I think he cried a little bit when mummy reminded him that someday he would be dancing with me like this at my own wedding!! Sometimes daddy gets a little emotional. |
| My cousin Abby held me for a while. She is going to have a baby of her own someday soon, so I gave her a little test to see if a screaming baby scared her! he..he..he... |
| I guess the test worked. She just kept holding me and I finally fell asleep trying. Oh well. Here I am with her and her new husband Mike. He looks calm now, but he may need another one of those drinks before I wake up!!! |
| Here are some family pictures of all of us. On the left is my mummy and daddy with my cousins Abby & Mike. And on the right is my cousin Neil and his wife Jen (Neil is my cousin Abby's brother and my mummy's nephew), then my Uncle Tom and my Aunt Debbie, their parents. Then my cousin Abby and Mike. Abby is still holding me, but I promised mummy I would stay quiet until the picture was over! |
| Well, yet another adventure down in my history books. It has been a really busy week and we still have a very long drive home. I think I will just stay asleep and let daddy drive us home. |
