Let the wedding week fun/madness begin. Kacy and mom flew to Sarasota on her birthday, Tuesday the 11th, and celebrated yet one more time (at a Mexican restaurant, of course) with Boots, GrandDan, Uncle Nate, Aunt Lacey, Byron and Susie.
Kacy got into beach mode quickly.
Boots the slave driver getting her worker bees (Susie, Aunt Carol and Lacey) going on the wedding programs Wednesday evening.
Aunt Lacey, Aunt Carol, Kacy and GrandDan enjoying the view from 1410 at the Lido Beach Resort.
The view from 1410.
Shower time for Aunt Lacey, Friday morning. Boots made her and Nate a scrapbook commemorating their "engagement year".
One tired baby after three days of fun. (Kacy has discovered zippers, namely how to get them up and down, and regularly wakes up sans PJs.)
The big day finally arrived, November 15, 2008. Aunt Lacey's princess dress awaits its moment.
The site of the wedding, as viewed from Room 1410.
Kacy trying on mom's shoes for size.
And Aunt Lacey is dressed.
Practicing throwing the flower petals (integral to her flower girl job) with bridesmaid Melina. Unfortunately, it was more dump the flowers on the floor and have Melina help me clean up.
Bridesmaids Crystal and Melina with the bride (sorry, out of sequence. Wanted to get pics up for the fans!)
The bride and her girls...
Boots and Aunt Lacey checking to see if anyone was actually coming to the wedding.
And here we go, trip 2 down the aisle as a flower girl. No petals made it on the aisle runner, but Kacy did make it all the way down.
Party time, finally! The happy couple.
Kacy opened up the dance floor, and proceeded to dance/chase the bubbles (from the DJ's bubblemaker) for most of the reception. Here she cools off at the fan that blew said bubbles around.
Grandma and Daddy.
Spending a moment with Aunt Lacey, the princess.
Uncle Nate takes a turn helping Kacy catch the bubbles.
What better time to read Goodnight Moon than during a wedding reception? Grandma was a good sport.
GrandDan with his brothers and sisters.
Aunt Lacey and Aunt Mary--Kacy's two favorite aunts!
Aunt Lacey and mom post-wedding.
Sunday morning, Kacy, mom, dad, Grandma and Aunt Mary walked from the hotel to St. Armand's Circle. On the way, they watched the manatees. Yes, this is as exciting as it got, if you can spot the manatee.
Kacy and a statue of John Ringling (as in the circus).
Taking a sip of daddy's mango smoothie.
And then there were four. Mom, Kacy, GrandDan and Boots closed down the week on Monday with a drive up Longboat Key and Bradenton Beach. Bradenton Beach was where we ran into cool sand sculptures.
A shark.
