I wish I was better with my camera...but not a one of my pictures is good...in focus or anything else. Something about having all four of our family members in a wedding made reaching for/remembering to grab my camera kind of impossible! So here is the wedding weekend through my phone's perspective!! Hopefully I'll have some real photos to post after Josh and Katie get their photos back :)
Thursday evenings trying on of the tuxes...
Owen shooting his own pictures...
Where is the red button Mom? I love what it does!!
Paw Paw and Owen investigating why the camera quit working...
Please for the love of goodness...get me out of this thing!!
Sheesh that was exhausting...yawn, blinky eyes, yawn...
Crash.
Momma had a strawberita at home after tux try on, tux return and making my to do list for the next day! It was necessary people!
I packed a couple coolers with drinks for at the church...one of the contents was a 2 by 4 for Josh of Mountain Dew :)
Cake at rehearsal at Tony's...yep. There was craziness from start to finish with the rehearsal...so this is the one pic I got! It was a blast though...as far as dinners go. Good drinks, great conversation. Ahh. Good times!
Wedding day :) Katie after her makeup and hair was all fancied up!!
And fast forward.
Because after the makeup and hair dos...the following took place. And it's no wonder I didn't grab my phone!!
I took off, met Jer at the hotel, dressed our kids, dressed myself, helped Jer with his tux and RAN like bats out of H-E double hockey sticks to get to the church.
We arrived at 1:30 to groomsmen decorating cars...I hugged Katie and told her that she looked AMAZING all finished up and she was just calmy waiting for things to start.
Stacey (our SAVIOR) came to our rescue and had entertainment qued up for the kiddos before the ceremony even started!!
**There may or may have been an incident while waiting for the wedding to start where Cooper pulled out the flower from his lapel, scraped his cheek with the straight pin (duh we should have NOT put on him in the first place...zero points Mom and Dad) and he may or may not have bled all over his tux shirt. It happened...just sayin'!**
At 1:55 we lined up for our entrances...blood on our shirts and all...and the boys were as calm as I'd ever seen them. They were adorable walking down the aisle and I LOVED that we got to walk down as a family :)
The rest, as they say, is wedding history!! There were tears, applause, photos, beer, a beautiful butterfly release...and BAM!!
Here we are at the reception. After speeches, after dinner. I finally had a chance to grab my phone and sneak a few pictures!!

Dancing partners. Jer has some video of the boys dancing and it will be posted here soon!! It was priceless!
For the record these two were amazing little troopers!! They weren't crabby or complainy. They just went where we asked, did what we said and rolled with the punches. Owen had his first ever public potty experience and rocked it like a rock star!! The boys made their Uncle a happy guy b/c he wanted for all of us to be included!! Wish granted Uncle J. Only for you :)
Cheese!! As a side note, I hate how grainy my reverse camera is. I'm so technologically spoiled that I can actually complain about the quality of photo my phone takes when it's turned around...ridiculous I know!!
Hannah was keeping this little guy company for a bit...and I love this picture!
Wedding dancing :)
Cake time!
I'll just lick that right off there thank you!
Me and Katie! Josh why we did not get one together is beyond me. Dang it! Hopefully the photographer has a couple good ones!!
Uncle Don wrangled both kiddos on the dance floor for a bit...
Like I said...this is in no way representative of the wedding day as a whole. But it's what got captured on my phone!!
Happy Wedding you guys!! Hope the beach is as beautiful as I promised it would be :)
