Wedding #2

 
 
Mr and Mrs Alex and Heather Dominguez
 
 
 
Aggie waiting for his bride... Lola named him Aggie when she couldn't pronounce Alex... and it stuck... he will forever be our Aggie...
 
 
We are missing the other ring bearer, but hey what do you expect?  He and Lola are two.  At one point Lola came and sat on my lap too...  Look closely... Lola still has her binky too... lol
 
 
She is going to miss her big Sissy... I just love this picture... my lil tomboy all girlied up.  Can you see the band aid from her scratching off the scab AFTER we put the dress on her??? 
 
 
My niece... Mya, My Miracle Miranda in the middle and Lola... Lola the Last... The three princesses...
 
 
And the princes... one that really does not want to wear a tuxedo... and really would rather be in his mom's lap!!! 
 
 
They were so nervous they forgot to kiss!!  But you can see the glow on their faces... they are happy!!!
 
 
Mother and Father of the Bride... Russ and I.  I wish it was more clear... Russ is so handsome all dressed up...
 
 
My son and my Mother in Law... she's moving OK for having a heart attack in between weddings...
 
 
Oh yeah... we forgot to do that on the stage!!! 
 
 
My nephew Bryce... wow how they all grow up so fast.  I have pictures of Heather and him playing in Grandma's buffet as toddlers... they are only a couple years apart...
 
 
The guys...
 
 
The girlz...
 
 
This is where we all left for the reception hall and left the newly weds to take further pictures.  I was never so happy to see her out of the modesty smock... The gold bead work is just gorgeous! 
 
 
They are sitting outside the Kingdom Hall.  It ended up being a gorgeous day... and they are such an adorable couple. 
 
 
Awwww.....  tehehehe
 
 
This is too cute because both their eyes are closed...:)
 
 
 
The Dining Hall with the Bride and Groom to the front...
 
 
The Food Hall... salad bar boats... pulled pork and pulled chicken... rolls, side salads, sandwiches, chips, lemonade, tea, sparkling cider, it was a feast...
 
 
And cakes.. plural...
 
 
Because some of us like Chocolate...
 
 
 
Aaand some of us like blocks of wood.  We had a slight mishap with a cake layer so we did the only thing we knew how...  we put a block of wood in its place and frosted the cake.  We made sure that the Father of the Bride ( aka... Russ) worked really hard to figure out what was wrong with his piece... on the bottom of the wood was a note from 'one blockhead to another'...  letting my main man know how much I still love and adore him...  and the cake piece is now tucked away for safe keeping... never to see inside of a wood stove... :) 
 
 
All I could do is laugh... hmmm... we have a little car... and its full... how do we get this all home???  My advice... pretend its a cow... or turkeys... or some other form of livestock... it will fit... we have pictures... ford escorts work best... but the Taurus will work!  :) 
 
 
And the evening wore on with people visiting and when the night was over... Lola shows it the best...
 
 
Great Party... Its time to crash! 
 
I think that catches us all up for the summer.  We disappeared for months I know... but we had our hands full.  As soon as the wedding was over, we began packing the mobile up.  That led into October with Russ' back surgery... which immediately was followed with moving into the travel trailer for the last 6 weeks while the house is being finished.  So now we can fast forward to what our next post will include... our new house!!!  A whirlwind year... ending with a bang! 
Until next time... hug your kids... and tell them you love them.  They grow up too fast, and before you know it, they are gone.
