Jess's wedding

We've had so much going on over the past couple of weeks.  I have so many pictures that I may have to break these up into events.
The first is that we went to Seabrook Island to help celebrate Jess's wedding to patrick.  I was so happy that this day was here and Jess was starting to get everything she has always wanted and deserved.  It was a wonderful wedding weekend, full of fun activities, and plenty of family around to help us celebrate.  Jess couldn't have looked more beautiful or happy.  It was a great thing to see.  Jess and I have always done everything together and I consider Jess my best friend.  A day is usually not complete until we have talked at least 3 times, or she face times the kids daily.  So, needless to say, standing beside her while she got married was great.  I wish she and Patrick many years of happiness (and kids soon I hope!!!:)  I can't wait to spoil her kids just like she's done with mine.

 Alex getting dressed in his "suit like daddy".  He felt so special getting all dressed up like the big boys.  With all my planning and getting ready for the trip and packing my clothes and all 3 kids, I did leave behind 1 key ingredient to this outfit:  His dressy black shoes.  They were not in the bag when I went to get them to leave for the wedding.  So, Alex wore his black Keen sandals, which looked perfect for this beach side wedding.  I guess if I left anything, I picked the right thing to leave.
 Pre-wedding shots:  Jess looked so pretty with the dress she knew was right, and that's why she only tried on 3.  (which she only did to make mom and I happy)

 Getting some quick pictures in between takes.  Chris and I, and Jess and I.

 My friend Mandy's little girl, Madison, with my 3 kids on the dance floor.

 May May and PopPop with all the grandkids on the Stanford side.  Can't believe they are actually all looking at the camera.

I can't wait to see more pictures of the big day and I'm sure I will add more when people send them to me.  It was so much fun.  Love you Jess.
