Keeping up with the Kuehnholds: Dale and Tiff's Wedding

Friday could not come soon enough. I was super excited to pick up the boys from daycare so we could spend the weekend with them. I miss holding my little Ace daily all day long. Being at work is definitely not as enjoyable as being at home snuggling a little one. He's starting to show his personality as well....just as I was coming back to work. He is definitely a smiley little guy. Easton is still a little jealous of him though. I'm hoping that phase will pass and he'll be able to realize what a blessing his little brother truely is.

This weekend Jesse's cousin was getting married. Dale and Tiff. I couldn't decide on if I was going to go or not. The idea of watching two boys on my own at a wedding/reception just wasn't my ideal of fun. At the last minute I did decide to go. I told Jesse that he was in charge of Easton and I was in charge of Ace during the wedding.

We arrived in Denison at the last minute. The wedding was at 3 and we got to Denison around 2:40 and still had to stop at Tom's so I could nurse Ace and Jesse could get his tie tied. We arrived at the wedding just as the wedding party was walking in. Easton was a little pickle and didn't want to sit or be quiet so I took him out and we walked around the church. Good thing the wedding wasn't all that long.

The reception turned out to be fun. It was open bar the entire night. Jesse and I didn't have to do a whole lot as in watching the boys due to having Grandma's there and little girls (Molly) in particular who loved carrying around Ace and watching after Easton. At the reception Tiff had an awesome idea of putting a couple of kids tables in the back. They had colors/coloring books/masks/puzzels/markers...etc...kept Easton busy at least. Never seen that before at a reception but it is a great idea for little kids who are bored.

Easton finally had enough and was getting tired. We left the reception around 9 and went back to Tom and Marla's. I let Easton stay up till around 10 or so and then him and I went to bed...Ace was already in bed and passed out. He was exhausted. Every one slept really well for the most part. Easton was on a blow up toddler bed which worked out great....I will be getting one of those in the near future for our travels.

Over all I think we all had a good time and I was glad I went. One thing that I wanted to do that didn't get done was dance with my handsome hubby. We were too busy visiting and watching kids to make time for each other :(

On another note: my flash that i got free worked like a dream at the reception. The pictures for the most part turned out rather good. Still need to get used to it though and tweak some settings.
