Karen and Ben's Wedding

I have over 350 pictures from Christmas but I needed to get caught up on last weeks wedding festivities first.


Will and I had the honor of being in Karen and Ben's wedding last Saturday. I was a bridesmaid and he was one of the ring bearers. This was his first little wedding to be in and he did a great job! I was very nervous not knowing that this little 2 year old boy might decide to do as he was walking down the aisle. But he pulled through and did just as he was told.


The rehearsal dinner was hilarious!! I have never heard so many funny speeches about anyone other than Ben. The audience was rolling hearing about the crazy days of Ben. There were many wonderful things said about Karen and her love for the Lord and the change in Ben's life in the past few years.


Will was pumped to be wearing a tux. He said it was like what daddy wears to work everyday--Nick does not wear a tux to work but he does wear a suit and tie so to him it was close enough:)

I teared up when he put it on. He looked so grown up and handsome!


Anne, Megan and I had fun helping Karen get ready.

When he saw Karen he said "I LIKE white. It's so pretty!"


It was a challenge trying feed and entertain him without getting food on his tux. Thankfully we found these painting smocks in one of the nurseries of the church.


Will and the flower girls found some toys to play with between pictures.


Besides a little panic right before I walked down the aisle he did GREAT! He looked so sweet carrying the pillow down the aisle.


They stood up there for a while...


...and then they sat down when they got tired.

It was FREEZING outside but we tried to pretend like it wasn't for the pictures.

I bet Will was the perfect ring barrier. You looked so pretty as well.
