insta saturday night

i consciously chose not to bring my camera with me tonight.

good thing iphones can capture moments even if they are blurry sometimes.

man, i was wishing i had more time to do a photo shoot with my kids.

sometimes it's hard to be the momma and the photographer though.

we were downtown.

they were dressed up.

we went to church at the cathedral.

we found a new park i heard about and couldn't wait to get to.

all of this because meredith and eric got married.

woohoo!! congrats you two.

our wishes for them included have fun, love much, enjoy many happy times, and fill your home to the brim with kids.

the dance floor, photo booth, food and cake tables, and candy bar were all favorite spots for this tribe!

the toast by the father of the bride and the dance with him and his daughter brought me to tears.

i was thinking about my dad and his toast.

i was thinking about how awesome he was.

i was thinking about how grateful i am that he got to do that for each one of us kids; even if one wedding happened after we already knew about the stinky cancer he got.

it was a good night!
