My Cousin's Wedding

My cousin, Jim, married a lovely young lady, Sam on July 17th in Duluth, MN. The wedding was beautiful. It was so much fun to see my extended family especially getting caught up with those that live so far away. It was great that so many of them were able to make it to the wedding. I just love how we can stay "close" when we live so far from each other. I hope that our kids will feel the same way.

Leah was one of the flower girls and she just had so much fun getting all dolled up. She was just in love with Sam and her lovely dress. She did follow her around a few times during the day! Leah had so much fun through the day and topped it off with dancing until she finally was ready to collapse. She did make it until 10pm! She had just a blast playing with all the girls (there are only 2 boys in the 10 babies in my extended family).

Amber was awesome. She was quiet during the grooms dinner, wedding and reception...really couldn't ask for anything more. She even had her first taste of water from a cup!

On Sunday, we walked down to Lake Superior where the girls had fun playing in the lake, the rocks and the sand!
