Wedding

My normal wedding date (otherwise known as Sam), was out of town this weekend, so I got this cutie to go with me instead:

Our good friends, Kristen and Jeff got married in a lovely fall wedding this weekend:

Michael was there to help carry Olive's backpack into the reception:

Michael and Emma:

A big perk of this wedding was the attendance of so many old friends that we don't see very often. This was the first time Olive met my good friend, Carrie:

The newlyweds:

Emma and me:

Delicious dark pink frosting (yikes):

My good friend, Carrie (we made sure we still have our signature dance move...don't worry, we do):

Crazy dance monster:

A quick moment with the beautiful bride:

The bride and groom danced. Watching these two dance made me think about the time when we were all just a bunch of crazy kids on a ski team together. If we'd been able to push the pause button then, and been told that 14 years later I'd be married to Sam, standing with my daughter watching Kristen and Jeff get married, we would have all had a good laugh. But here we are, here they are:

These crazy girls danced:

Added a tiny crazy girl to the mix:

And some crazy boys danced, too:

Did I mention the dancing? Olive danced for about 3 hours straight. She danced with people:

She danced alone:

More solo moves:

And in the middle of the crowd:

I have never seen anyone dance as much as Olive did last night. She danced until she could dance no more. Then she talked about all the dancing until she could talk no more.
