Jack and Lori's Wedding

Wedding day was beautiful!! Lori looked so pretty, Jack looked very handsome, it was a beautiful sunny day, all the girls did great jobs as flower girls, and the wedding went perfectly! I haven't gotten to rehash everything with the bride yet (because they are in Jamaica!), but I'm pretty sure she feels the same way.

The girls dresses were adorable- everyone had an ivory dress and pink monogrammed sash. Here are some pictures of getting ready at the church. We brought lots of snacks and entertainment for our church stay, and they all did better than we expected.

Savannah ended up being pretty quiet during the actual procession on wedding day. She smiled for a second, but then just had a quiet expression the rest of the way down the isle. I was just happy she wasn't fussing or wiggling! As Minde was carrying Skylar down the isle, Skylar was saying- "Hi everybody!"..."Hi everybody!"...then she saw Uncle James and said bye to him and then said hi to Daddy and Jack. So, she was not quiet....but was entertaining. Caroline looked so pretty and did a great job with the flowers!

Beautiful Bride! (she loved her pockets)

Mr. and Mrs. Meece!

The reception was at Ruth's Chris and everyone had an amazing dinner! It was great to see tons of people we had not seen in a long time. We had wonderful wedding cake and desserts and then spent the rest of the night talking and dancing. We had a hard act to follow...Caroline was one of the first people out on the dance floor and got everyone in the mood for dancing...


We couldn't be more happy for Jack and Lori and are so excited to welcome Lori into the family!

Rehearsal Dinner

Jack and Lori got married last weekend at Church Street in downtown Knoxville. They asked all the nieces to be flower girls in the wedding. All three girls did a great job and looked so cute. The church is beautiful and has a REALLY long isle we got to walk down:). During rehearsal Savannah was talking gibberish all the way down the isle. Skylar got to walk with Aunt Minde and Caroline followed everyone with the big job of tossing rose petals. She was really cute and "deliberate" in her placement of petals.


Following the rehearsal we had a wonderful dinner at Naples. Thanks again to Gigi for coming in town to help with the girls so we could go kid free to the rehearsal dinner and reception.

This is what Skylar thinks of being at the church so long....aaahhhh!! :)
I love these pictures. Jack and Lori looked great! Savannah is giving Uncle Jack a run for his money. I have about 6 or 7 pictures of this...all with Savannah in some wiggly pose and in each one she is getting closer to the ground until she gets what she wants... and gets to go crawl on the big steps.

Chattanooga Aquarium

We made a day trip to Chattanooga to see Tyler's dad and to take the girls to the aquarium. We got to meet up with Austin and Lara and their three adorable girls at the aquarium. We hadn't all four been together in maybe 6 or 7 years?! It was fun to catch up for a little bit and of course to see all the cool stuff at the aquarium. The place is amazing!


The Watson girls gave us a wonderful tour....
