Travie Got Married

My one and only brother got married. We've always wondered what kind of girl Travis would end up with. We knew she would have to be pretty brave to come into a family full of girls. We wondered if she'd be a tom girl or girly. Travis never really brought girls home so I didn't even know what his type was. But after I met Angie, I knew she was exactly his type. They are perfect for each other. And their wedding was perfect, too. 

One of the pluses of having your brother get married four days after your due date is all your family from out of town gets to be there to see the new babe. 

The downfalls are that you miss out on all the fun things they are doing because, hello, you just had a baby. And also you get to take a 12 day old baby to a wedding. At least Nora decided to come early so I didn't have to take a 4 day old baby to a wedding. I'm so glad everything worked out and I was able to be there. And Nora was an angel. She just ate and slept through the whole day. But the highlight of the day for me was when a random girl saw me pushing Nora in the stroller and came up and could not believe I just had a baby, because I looked so awesome because, hello? Who doesn't like hearing that?! No matter how untrue it is. 

I am beyond jealous that they got to be sealed by Grandpa Sam. If there is anything I would change about my wedding day, that would be it (but I wouldn't change anything because it was perfect the way it was, right? No. I would probably change lots of things. Like my hair. What was I thinking?!) 

Owen was in cousin heaven all week. I was nervous for him. First he was getting used to having a sister take away mom and dad's attention and then he was going to have cousins around to take away grandma and grandpas attention. I wasn't sure how he was going to handle it. But he loved having them around!! It makes me really sad he doesn't have any cousins close by. Travis and Angie better stick around seeing as how every other married couple isn't (or won't be soon. Hannah. :( ) I sure love living so close to home, but I hate not having everyone here. 

At least weddings bring everyone together! Happy marriage to Travis and Angie, I sure love you both!
