She made it down the aisle!














We are back from our trip to Atlanta for Todd's sister's wedding! Everything was beautiful (despite the cold) and the girls were amazingly well-behaved. Let me elaborate on just how well behaved.
Everyone knows Aubrie Kate does not go out in public yet. Besides a trip to the store and to church, she usually gets to stay at home because her tantrums are soooooooooo extreme. Madyson was not a tantrum throwing child so I have no idea on how to deal with it, except leave her at home with a sitter. BUT this weekend, that wasn't a possibility since we were out of town and she was a flower girl. So she went...we prayed...HARD.
She did good at the rehearsal, besides running in the mud. At the rehearsal dinner she sat for 2 hours without fussing!!! This is a huge step for her because it was around her dinner time and her bedtime (we didn't eat until 7pm but we were there from 5pm til 7pm doing slide shows, speeches, etc.) I was so amazed that we took the girls out for ice cream before bed.

Saturday, we headed over to Todd's step mom's house to hang out. Madyson played, Todd slept, Aubrie Kate even napped! We left to go back to the hotel to get ready, and that went smoothly!

We got to the wedding site and they both were full of energy! but held on long enough to get in line to walk down the aisle. Aubrie Kate and Tristen (baby cousin and ring bearer) rode in the wagon pulled by Todd and Madyson walked beside him throwing flowers. She did sooooo good! (if you recall last time she was a flower girl she fell asleep 2 minutes before she was suppose to walk down) They both sat threw the wedding (we kept them full of candy) and then walked back down the aisle!!
