Katie and Evan's Wedding

We started the weekend off right with a bachelorette party at our hotel in Katie's honor. We showered her with fun stuff!

Katie was a beautiful bride!!!



The ceremony took place at Christ Church in Pittsburgh, PA in a little white chapel.

Evan had his two brothers, Alan and David as his best men, and Katie had me, Abbey and her long-time friend Emily as her maid/matrons of honor.

And, as you know, Will was the ringbearer and did an amazing job!



The reception took place at a BEAUTIFUL restaurant in Pittsburgh called Willow, and Evan and Katie had 4 different flavors of cheesecake for dessert.


The blessing tree, full of warm wishes and blessings for the happy couple!

Congrats, guys! And welcome to the family, Evan!

The Ringbearer!

Here's the money shot... er, video! Will as Ring Bearer in Beth's sister Kate's wedding. This is just a 16 second glimpse of it. We weren't sure how he would do. When I first set him down, he took a few steps, then casually tossed the pillow. Someone in the audience picked it up and handed back to him, and he took off down the aisle, then spiked it when he got up front. Enjoy!

Whew! It's been a while since we've posted anything! Fortunately, we caught this video of Will and Maeby a couple days ago. Will has always loved Maeby. Even from his early days, he's followed her around the room with his eyes and laughed at all she does. As he's gotten more mobile and expressive, he's really learning to interact with her. Maeby, on the other hand, still only tolerates him. She's had to put up with him hounding her (ha!) and rattling the door of her kennel while she tries to sleep. But he's learned how funny it is to take one of her toys and run away, or to throw food on the floor during mealtime and watch her scramble for it. In this bit of video, he's been kneeling in front of Maeby a lot, trying to get her to sniff his head. It must tickle, because he hunches up his shoulders and laughs whenever she does it. Also, look for the moment when he shakes his head back and forth in front of her face. He's trying to give her Eskimo kisses!

Make a joyful noise!

Here's our little boy making his father proud again. Look at how he explores each of the drums and cymbals on the set! And check out his T-shirt...
