A New Year's Wedding!

Sorry I've haven't been on in a few days. It has been pretty busy around here lately! On Tuesday night we had a rehearsal dinner at Lewis & Clark's.






This is the first time we met Stu's daughter, Shannon, her husband, Chuck and their baby, Zach.

The Grandkids!




Wednesday night was New Years Eve. Mom and Stu watched Zach while Shannon and Chuck went out at the Casino for New Years. Zach is so cute! He is such a calm little guy. Ollie did really well with him. At first he did not want to share his baby toys with him but he came around pretty quick and then he was sharing ALL of his toys with Zach.






New Years Day was the BIG day! Curt came over to do Mom's hair. He did a great job!





Here we are finally all dressed and ready to go!









Mom wore the cape that Aunt Patti made for Jill's wedding. She looked beautiful! Like a "winter princess" in the words of Aunt Patti.






Ollie only wore his boutineer (sp?) for a little while, we did manage to get a pic of him with it on. "get this off!"









Sisters.










More sisters!












Winter Princess!











Jill & Barb














Jill, Barb, Jen, Mom, Erin, Patti, Ava & Bel....Vivy was camera shy, we did not leave her out on purpose.















John, Paula, Kevin & Erin














Andrew, Stu & Shannon















Ollie, the ring bearer...


















He only made it half way down the aisle happy then he got nervous and upset and ran straight to me. He wasn't making any noise so it took a second for me to realize that he was crying. Poor little guy. This pic breaks my heart.

The wedding and reception were so beautiful. The wedding was at the Conservatory in St. Charles and the reception was at Braddens right down the street.
Congratulations Mom & Stu...may you live happily ever after!
