Still here...

We are still here. We've just been a little busy. August was consumed with getting ready for Holly Howard's wedding on August 22. I was the coordinator / director and helped Amber & Holly almost every day. I don't have any pictures of Patrick & Holly together, but here are some others...

Thursday night, we made cookies at our house for the favors. They turned out really cute, but it was after midnight before we finished.While Amber & I were out running last minute errands, the kitchen was overtaken with flour.

Friday, we arrived at church at 9am to begin setting up for the reception and ceremony. It was a long day of setting up tables, ironing tablecloths, bringing in ferns and other supplies from Jen. There were lots of helpers which made it a little easier. Friday night's rehearsal ended up being in the dark. The lights in the sanctuary were struck by lightning. Thankfully we had some lights for Saturday. Sara put a balloon in her shirt to pretend to be pregnant.

Holly had her three sisters as bridesmaids: Lauren, Sara, and Kendall.

The Howards being goofy during picture time. Saturday went very well. The ceremony was smooth, and the reception was beautiful. We were all wiped out when it was over.

The past couple of weeks, we've been getting ready for Isabella: going through Katherine's old clothes, washing bouncer and car seat covers, organizing closets and drawers for the girls to share a room. Katherine likes to sit in Isabella's stroller to watch Veggie Tales. She's even asked to take a couple of naps in Isabella's bed. Pretty cute now - praying that the transition will be smooth for her once Isabella arrives. My official due date is 4 weeks from tomorrow, but like most pregnant women, I wouldn't mind if she arrives early.
