Daddy and Em's Trip

Last weekend, Emily and Cubby flew up to Michigan for Auntie Tessa's wedding! It was a much-anticipated event, especially for Emily who could hardly contain her excitement over getting to see her cousins, Reagan and Kaylee, again! From the looks of the pictures I've seen, these girls were pretty inseparable and had a lot of fun playing and getting ready for the wedding together.




Cousins Berkley and William were there too--Berk loved his bin and William loved Berk :-).


The kids all got to do some major camping out in Grandma and Grandpa's basement together and Emily told me she read stories to the girls and to Berk too.

Cubby was the official video-cameraman for the day of the wedding so there aren't too many pictures (from my camera, at least) from the wedding. However, this shot below is of the girls--after Auntie Amy did their hair and they got dressed in the cute dresses Grandma Beckie made for them. (I think much of Amy's weekend was spent doing hair--it seems to be what she's doing in almost every picture I see of her!) Thanks, Amy, for not leaving Cubby to try and do Em's hair!

Here is my beautiful sister-in-law, the bride, Tessa. Isn't she lovely? I love this picture because her smile totally says how happy she is on her wedding day!And, here are the handsome Lindseth men! Looking good, guys!

Here are the girls in their dresses--each of the ruffled skirts are the girls' favorite colors. Grandma even made one for Kari and sent it home with Cubby--it's so cute! They'll be wearing them on Sunday (as long as it doesn't heat up again!)






On Monday, everyone else had left and so Emily got some one-on-one attention (the kind she loves best!) from Grandma and Grandpa. They took she and Cubby to the Detroit zoo and had one last hurrah before Cubby and Emily had to hop on a plane back to us in good-ol' Nebraska! Emily and Cubby both have said what a fun time they had--Emily was so thrilled to be able to be the "big girl" and go on a special trip with Daddy. We're so glad that at least two members of our family could go up and give our love and support to Tessa and Tom as they start their new lives together. Thank you for the great weekend, Grandma and Grandpa! Congratulations, Tessa and Tom!

I wish I had gotten a photo of Emily at the airport rolling her luggage behind her because she was so cute beaming with excitement (at 1130pm even) and so proud of herself.
We practiced doing the curlers the day before and then decided to do "crowns" for the wedding day instead of curls. You can look up youtube videos for the curlformers. It's a little tricky to get used to, so it was good to practice. Sara actually did all 3 girls hair the day of the wedding since I was busy doing the bride's hair that morning I also braided mom's hair, as well as my own hair). It sure was fun having Cubby and Emily there.
