Holli's Wedding Weekend

This weekend was my college roommates wedding at Lake Martin (near Auburn). I have been so excited about seeing Holli and Brooke, which are my two best friends from college! Brooke just found out she is having a little boy in March and it was Holli's wedding weekend, so there was so much to celebrate! I was a little nervous about the drive, since Patrick hates the car so much, but he did okay and there was not too much crying in the car. The doctor told me I could start giving him teething crackers, bagels, pizza crust or anything bready. I decided the car ride would be the perfect time for Patrick to try a bagel. He loved it! Anything that keeps him entertained in the car for 30 minutes is an enormous success!! It kept me entertained as well! He was so funny to watch! He put the bagel in his mouth and then pulled it out really quickly with this puzzled look on his face. Then he started to lick it and look at me with an amazed look on his face! Then he started chomping away on it! Who knew bagels could be so exciting?

On Thursday night there was a shrimp boil, which was so good! Unfortunately the family pic was too dark and didn't turn out. However, I did get a good one of Michael and Patrick. Look at that view!

Then the lingerie shower



On Friday we had the bridesmaid's luncheon, which was so yummy!

On Friday night was the rehearsal dinner which was at a really cute little restaurant. My parents came in town to go to the wedding and watch Patrick on Friday night so we could go to the rehearsal dinner.

The lady taking the picture wanted us to do a prom pose, which we were not thrilled about. Unfortunately it was the only pic I got of the three of us, so I had to post this cheesy picture.

And finally the wedding was on Saturday! Everything was so beautiful! The ceremony was at an outside church on the lake and the reception was at an adorable restaurant.

The weather was perfect, so we sat outside and listened to the band all night

Patrick has learned how to suck on his thumb.

Hanging out with Big and Allie. Patrick was amazed by all the lights, so getting him to look at the camera was impossible

On Saturday, Michael kept Patrick all day while I helped the bride get ready and take pictures. Unfortunately, it was a rough day for both of them because Patrick got his first tooth that day! Patrick ended up crying for most of the day because his teeth hurt so bad. We were glad to get back to Nashville on Sunday so Patrick could get back into his routine!
