Wedding & Dancing

Yesterday after swim class we headed up to Fort Wayne to celebrate Mike's step sister's wedding. We'd been prepping Izzy for the wedding all week, as it'd be her first wedding and no doubt a fun time for her. Every time we mentioned Andrea's wedding, Izzy's eyes would get big and she'd say, "I'm going to be the flower girl!" You see, Izzy will be a flower girl, but not until September at Tim & Danielle's wedding. They sent her a package complete with a flower girl t-shirt and book. We've been reading her the book to prepare her for her role...but it seems that as soon as we said we're going to a wedding this weekend, she got confused. Let's just say Izzy was beyond excited about seeing a real, live flower girl at the ceremony! She wouldn't nap, as she was too excited! We left Laney with Bob & Laura, as she goes to bed around 7 and it'd be no fun (for her or for us) had we brought her.
By the time we got into the car headed to the ceremony, Izzy crashes. Nice timing, right? So we kept her in the car another 20 minutes once we got there so she could snooze. It was going to be a long night!
Izzy had to stand on her chair to get a good eye on the flower girl, Sophia.
Andrea and her dad...she made for one stunning bride!
Ceremony site was at the Rose Gardens and it, too, was quite a beautiful site!
At the reception with Daddy...look at her big blues!
Izzy was finally able to meet the flower girl...they danced the night away!
Taking a break (it was probably 10pm here...3 hours past her bedtime!)
Izzy "borrowed" the maracas from the band...
...and shook them while dancing to their music! What a fun night!!!
