Annie and Neil's dream wedding (and our adventure up North)

Early Thursday morning, getting last minute hugs from Sophia before we departed for New York for Annie and Neil's wedding.

After arriving in NY we had a little down time before we needed to get to work. Kate and I helped Annie and Neil get some last minute supplies for the big day, ate a late dinner, and then got to work on the goody bags for the guests. "Team Annie" was a well oiled machine!

Friday morning it was time to pamper the bride! Kate, Annie, and I got to spend a couple of hours just the three of us while we got our manicures and pedicures. It was great being with my girls!

Annie treated her "special ladies" to a wonderful lunch at the Hudson House Friday afternoon. The food was delicious and Mrs. O'Donnell made us all cry with her beautiful toast to the bride.

Back on the home front, Mom, Dad, Granddaddy, and Sophia packed up the car Friday morning and started making their way to NY...

After being on the road all day, Pop and Sophia took a relaxing dip in the pool.

While Sophia and Pop were swimming, we were rehearsing for the big day!

It's the wedding day!!
Early Saturday morning we are ready to go get beautiful!

Annie, was one of the most beautiful brides I have ever seen. She was radiant!

During the wedding, Granddaddy watched Sophia back at the hotel.

Looks like fun!

Mom stayed with Sophia and Granddaddy during the reception while Dad served as my date for a little while. Sophia seems to be enjoying Grammy's big bed.

Sunday, we were up pretty early to make our way back home. We stopped at Cabela's in PA to do some shopping, eat some lunch, and take a break from the car ride.

Sophia loved checking out all of the animal displays. The Polar Bears really caught her eye.

And, the Africa Safari was exciting to see.

Annie and Neil's wedding was truly magical. I was so honored to be a part of their special day and I loved being with my best friends. Mom, Dad, and Granddaddy were so wonderful to take care of Sophia while I took part in all of the festivities.
