Aunt Donna and Uncle Drew's Wedding



*If for some reason the pictures stop changing,
run your mouse over them*

In November we got to go to Florida for Aunt Donna (Austin's sister) and Uncle Drew's wedding. It was all as gorgeous as you can imagine. It was on the beach in Marco Island at sunset and everything went without a hitch. Austin's mom made all of the dresses (excluding the wedding dress) and Aunt Donna did a wonderful job making sure that all of the girls felt like princesses for the day. She gave them each bags full of goodies like nail polish, rhinestone flip flops, pearl necklaces, lip gloss...the whole works! We moms put on a spa day for the girls and got them all ready together, with the High School Musical soundtrack blastin' in the background. We forgot to have something for them to wear while they were getting ready so we just had them all pull their slips up to their armpits. The 2 1/2 hours we had to get them ready flew by without us even knowing and we were all scrambling at the last minute, but I think it all turned out okay. They all looked so cute dressed up and I am sure they will all remember this forever!

During the pre-wedding photo shoot, Kamae had a big wad of gum in her mouth (also from the goodie bag) and she kept blowing bubbles. The photographer seemed like he couldn't get enough pictures of her blowing those bubbles and he nicknamed her, "Bubbles" and, of course, she hammed it up for him!:)

The wedding ceremony was beautiful and their vows were, like I mentioned in the captions, tear-jerkers. They were straight from the heart and especially since there's a child involved, it hit straight to our hearts as well. We were so glad that we were able to be a part of this special day and hopefully it won't be too long before the Orton family gets together again!
