Mal and AJ's Party

You know, it's always a party when the Webers are involved. :)

One thing I really appreciate about our family is that we are all the first to get to a reception/event and we are the last to leave. That's the glory of family. They help with the set up and tear down....

Mallory and AJ's first dance.

The Weber Girls all married off.... and Mary has her little bun in the oven.

Grandma was gettin' tipsy!!

Kidding. She was holding Kurtis' beer.

Weber Siblings :)

Everyone looks amazing.

Caleb is standing weird.

Love a few things about this picture.

1.Caleb's hand on his hip.

2. The empty dance floor.

3. The fact that Anne and Katie are jumping.

4. The fact that Katie wasn't too embarrassed to do that....bc that is something isn't usually cool to a 12 yr old.

I want to say this was the Copperhead Road dance.

Anne and Melissa love a good line dance.

Caleb just loves dance...when he drinks...

I feel the thought bubbles here were...

Anne: Oh wow. Those kicks are nuts. I hope he doesn't fall.

Caleb: I am Lord of the Dance. The people ain't got nothin' on me.

Oh Uncle Jim....headed home with a mum in a pumpkin.

I love me a good lyrical dance. So while the cute newlyweds kids behind me, Aunt Michelle and I performed a lyrical dance...mostly her copying whatever I did (perhaps making fun of it.)

It was fun!

This picture of Aunt Michelle (in her pretty shoes) is priceless :)

I want an 8x10

I only wish she were facing the camera.

Creepy tongues...

Poor Alicia...

Grandma wasn't dancing.  Or drinking.

She was following the Cardinals game on Alicia's phone.

Another priceless picture....

I got Uncle Stinky onto the floor.

He and Caleb just really were rocking it...

What is Caleb doing?????

Rich was doing the macarena (sp?). That wasn't the song playing though.

Mr. and Mrs. Richard Weber

They are just so cute together...

...and so are they...

Dad dancing with his Momma.

Jake just told Grandma he forgot to wear underpants.

They were dancing fools...

She is so pretty...and so happy.

Every party must come to an end.... 

The wedding was beautiful. We had a blast hanging out with family all day and night. Mom, Mary, Chad, and the kids headed back to the Villa round 7:30 but Dad, Anne and I stayed at the dance until it ended. We helped with clean up and then we headed to the villa. It was an awesome wedding.

Congratulations Mallory and AJ :)

Here is to your happily ever after!!

Mallory and AJ's Wedding

My cousin Mallory married her high school sweetheart on October 26 in a beautiful wedding in Alton, IL.

My cousin Jake walking Grandma Ann down the aisle :) We got to the church right as the wedding was starting so we had to sneak into the back. (Terrible wedding ettiquette. Sorry, Mal.)

Uncle Stinky and Aunt Michelle

The Matron of Honor (and her 9 month baby bump) and the Best Man

Sweet Kyla Margaret. This was her face as she saw Charlotte. She whispered "Charlotte" right after I took this.

The beautiful bride as the doors were opening.

I was crying at this point. Uncle Richard was crying as he gives his second daughter away :)

Seeing my uncles cry gets me every time.

She look stunning.

It was a Catholic wedding with a mass. Sawyer was actually a good boy! Busy but good.

Kyla Margaret with her Grandpa after the wedding.

Mr and Mrs AJ

The weather was beautiful, there were bubbles everywhere, it was amazing!

Charlotte loves her some bubbles...

The Weber Family

(minus John, Alex, Jeremy and Darrin...all of which at to work)

Aunt Bare and the most handsome little guy...

We headed to Target after the wedding to get a snack, a present, and some drinks.

Then we headed over to the reception....which had a beautiful view of the river and the bridge.

Charlotte LOVED the fountain. She kept finding people to take with her to the fountain.

Melia did Mal's bridal portraits. Sooooo pretty. She did them at the farm.

At first glance it does appear that she is drinking beer.

It's really apple juice. She insisted on drinking like everyone else. Who needs a sippy cup anyway?

Love that face... and my fat arm.

He played and played in the window....he even fell and bruised his cheek doing it but still got back up and played some more.

This boy and his Gigi.

Always such a lady. She gets her skills from her mom.

And Wayne is in the house!!! Poor boy was teething but he put that aside for the first 20 minutes that he was at the reception. He dominated that place!! He was into everything within minutes...and Charlotte was helping make sure he didn't touch stuff he wasn't supposed to.

Gigi and Papa and their babes.

Kyla finally was done with pictures and Charlotte couldn't have been more excited. She is obsessed with her. HOW CUTE ARE THEY?

They announced the bridal party and bride and groom. The crazies actually all took a seat while they did that.

Sawyer even clapped along with everyone else.

Heading to the dance floor for their first dance (which they shared with Charlotte and Kyla)

Poor baby Wayne. They headed home not too long after this. He just wasn't feeling well.

Sawyer loves his Uncle Cha Cha

The Weber grandkids...minus John and Eric.

Uncle Jim, Aunt Tammy, Ryan, Michaela, and Kurtis

Katie, Aunt Didi, Uncle Grant, Melissa, and Jake

The Hendricks family plus Alicia

Love this couple :)

These three are a perfect hot mess :)

And they are all so pretty....even Jake is :)

The Weber Siblings with their Momma

The core 6 if you will...

Pretty pretty ladies

This shall be continued in another post with the fabulous dance pictures :)
