wedding weekend.

UPDATE! i borrowed 2 pics from ashley's facebook page. the bride and groom:

this weekend we traveled to greenville, sc to celebrate bryson and amy's big day. bryson is ashley's (my sil's) little bro. we were excited to be included in all the weekend fun! trey and i were super excited to see ava and bryce make their flower girl debut! they did such a great job. they had ALL of their closest family members there and we were all so proud. it was a very pretty and sweet wedding. i think bryson was in like the 5th or 6th grade when i first met him so it's a little weird to think that he's old enough to be getting married! but, at 26, he's plenty old enough and is in for a really special treat. the lucys wish them all the happiness in the world!

with the exception of friday afternoon, i left my slr in the hotel room and just took my point and shoot. which means 2 things....1)the pics i did get aren't all that great and 2)i didn't get many pics because the point and shoot stayed "lost" in my black hole of a bag. i seriously couldn't find it half the time. one of the times was when the bride and groom were about to be announced at the reception....i had the perfect view for a good pic to share, but the camera was "lost" (aka....in the bottom of my bag). if i get a pic of the happy couple from ash then i'll put it on this post later.

as far as greenville is concerned...what an awesome city!! i was glad to finally explore another part of my "new" state. i can't wait to go back. trey and i would like to go back without sarah kate for a weekend trip. it only took us 3 hours to get there so it was an easy trip. we enjoyed our stay there! and we enjoyed getting to celebrate mimi's birthday with her, too!

pics to share!......

friday afternoon meeting in the hotel. ready to go explore=)

before getting ready for the rehearsal dinner, sk played "beauty shop" with trey...

sk is a papa's girl for sure...

our busy girl!


a rare moment...pic with papa bear!


nana and granddaddy (ashley's parents) gave the girls these little mice with a book about the "mice on main." there are little bronze mice on main street in greenville so it was a neat keepsake for them to have from the wedding weekend. well, sk is obsessed with her new mouse! she carried it around all weekend long!! thanks nana and granddaddy!!


mimi handing out the goods. sk had her first experience with "smarties." (ava's favorite candy). sk was a big fan.


papa and his sugared up little ladies....


on saturday night, trey, sk and i went to dinner with mimi and papa at a yummy little spot on main street. we were happy to celebrate mimi's birthday with her=) didn't take any pics though.
when we returned to our hotel room, sarah kate got trey all fixed up with some stickers....




and some kisses...


thanks again to the wike and foster families for including us! what a great weekend!
