We had three days at home before we were on a plane again, this time headed to Pittsburgh for Uncle Lucas and Aunt Dayna's wedding. And what an event it was! Where do I even begin? First of all, you loved walking around the University of Pittsburgh. It may have had something to do with the attention you were getting from Grandpa.
The craziness, though, began on Saturday morning at about 10:00am, two and a half hours before the ceremony. Thank you, by the way, for taking a three hour nap that morning...I don't know what I would have done otherwise! I walked out of our hotel room to find Uncle Lucas splayed across the hallway floor. He had tripped down the stairs (walking barefoot - who does that?), dropped a bottle and landed on the broken pieces with his left foot.
Aaron Brinklow and I had to dig a large piece of glass out of his heel and I had to keep pressure on the ball of his foot where another large gash was bleeding. Long story short, Urgent Care stitched your Uncle Lucas up with ten minutes to spare before the ceremony started. Other almost disasters: late groomsmen, forgotten ring, forgotten dress, forgotten tie, missing pants. After all of that though, the ceremony was beautiful and the rest of the day went without incident.
You, by the way, looked absolutely adorable in your little flower girl dress made especially for you by Grandma!
You made Mommy and Daddy laugh as we walked down the aisle when you decided to whack your little flower bouquet out of Daddy's hand. I think the audience got a kick out of it though.
Aunt Dayna and Uncle Lucas were so happy that you were able to be a part of their very special day. I think the feeling was mutual. :o)
P.S. A special thank you to Nonna and Ga for watching you so Mommy and Daddy could have a couple of dances together!
