Trying to explain a wedding and the whole Bride and Groom thing to a 2, 3, and 4 year old is like pulling teeth. They just don't really get the importance of it, quite yet. So I decided to put it in their terms- Prince and Princess. From the time I explained it to them that way, that is all we heard about. "When do we get to see the princess?", "Are we going to see the princess today?", "what is the princess' name?". Then alas the day of.. filled with so much excitement, it was as if we really were seeing royalty. Very cute in my book, despite the fact we don't really practice the princess thing in our house. I have a feeling they are going to out number me in this department and that will be the number one thing on their wish lists.
No we really didn't see a "princess" but it was her wedding day so it fits for the occasion. My cousin (2nd actually),Lauren, got married. Very beautiful wedding and great time with family that we don't see that often. Lauren, who looks just like her mother, was stunning! Lauren and Mike (the prince) seemed to really enjoy their day,didn't seem like there was a care in the world. So refreshing to see that!
I thought this was so cute.... They went up to Lauren as we were about to leave and asked to see her shoes. However, she had taken them off and she told them they were over there in the corner. They both gasped as if they found the glass slipper! Make me chuckle! Oh to have the mind of a child.
