Family Reunion - Part II: Kirk and Lucy's Wedding

We just had a super fun weekend for Kirk and Lucy's wedding!  Bryce and I have just decided that it is impossible to take care of two kids AND take pictures at events so I only have a few to share.  Ruby took TONS of great pictures of Abby and Elliott as the flower girl and ring bearer so I can't wait for her to send them to me or post them on her own blog.  They were so. freakin. cute.  Little boys in suits are just entirely too adorable.  And Abby did a WONDERFUL job as the flower girl too.  She meticulously dropped petal by petal until she reached the front, noticed there was still a fair amount of rose petals in her basket and proceeded to grab them all and toss them on the ground.  Unbeknownst to her, she got a laugh out of all the guests.  That's our little goofy girl and we were SO proud of her.  :)

This is literally the only picture I have from the entire wedding weekend and obviously, we didn't even take the picture.  It's a super rare family photo at the rehearsal dinner.  

And then on Sunday, we had a huge play date with our cousins.  We all have kiddos and have not seen each other since Ruby and Matt's wedding five years ago.  The Baldwins are in Oz, another cousin lives in Phoenix and another is in NYC so this was the epic play date I had been looking forward to for a while now.  And the neat thing is WE ALL HAVE MIXED KIDS!  There were 8 kids + Ruby's bun in the oven.  We are not sure when we will all be able to be together like this again so it was very fun to see them play so well together as a family.  Unfortunately Kirk and Lucy couldn't join in on the fun as they still had post wedding stuff to attend to.

  The whole family!  From oldest to youngest, Zach, Isabella, Rachel, Maya, Cecil, Abby, Elliott, Lilly and Baby Baldwin #2.

All the toys in the house is for babies and toddlers so I rummaged around and busted out our old Connect Four game from our childhood and it was a hit!

I also got out my Jenga which I still love playing.

Story time with Ruby a-yi.

And lastly, it's the cousins (minus Kirk)!
