We attended a wedding for Matt's friend Steve and his beautiful bride, Brittney yesterday evening and it was wonderful. They had the wedding and the reception all in Brittney's parents' back yard out in Vail. It was put together so nicely and you would have never known you were just in a back yard. They had gorgeous white draperies, strings of white lights, satin red ribbons and a lot of really good food. I was really worried about Hayden sitting through the service without making noise or wanting to move around, but he sat for the whole thing, whispering to all of the people around us (who we know well from TriSports) to "please be quiet!" The dinner afterwards took a really long time due to photos, so we entertained Hayden with 3 plates full of Watermelon and some crackers, plus Mommy's secret weapon, Hot Wheels cars from my purse. By the time dinner came, it was 8:30 and Hayden was really tired, so we ate pretty quickly and took him home. I certainly didn't need a tired child scene at a wedding reception! Back to the Cute Alert, check out these photos!
Today I am in charge of food for Hayden's Godparents' baby shower and I have 72 deviled eggs and about 300 Mexican apetizers to get ready, then somehow get it over to the park for the party. Should be fun!
